Medical Center.

Operating Room 2.

"Call Dr. Montgomery and tell her to come over quickly when she's done. ”

Dr. Burke commanded.

"Yes, doctor. ”

The nurse responded.

"Ultrasonic instruments are still not advanced enough. ”

Adam shook his head, "Can't see this." ”

"You never have a correct measurement until you actually have surgery. ”

Dr. Burke said in a deep voice, "That's why we doctors need to keep improving our skills. ”

Baby Emily was stunted because of her atrial septum separated by membranes, and the aorta was much narrower than expected, only 1 mm in diameter, and did not have enough blood circulation.

No matter how well prepared Adam was, no matter how delicate Norwood's surgery was, Emily would not have survived without a steady blood transfusion of the aorta.

According to his estimates, it will be within 24 hours.

Dr. Montgomery heard the news and quickly arrived.

“crap！”

They are all professional doctors, and they know what the situation is at a glance, and Dr. Montgomery closed his eyes and cursed in a low voice.

"If you don't have an opinion, we're going to close our chests. ”

Dr. Burke reminded.

Norwood's surgery was no longer going on.

Now she can only stitch it up as soon as possible and return to her original state, so that she can live a few more hours with more vitality.

"Hmm. ”

Dr. Montgomery opened his eyes and nodded sadly.

"Let's do it. ”

Dr. Burke motioned to Adam.

Adam nodded, and with the fastest speed and the best technique, he closed Emily's chest.

"Sent her to the neonatal intensive care unit. ”

The surgery is over.

"Doctor Duncan, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you. ”

Dr. Montgomery greeted.

"Good. ”

Adam removed his gown, gloves, and mask, walked out of the operating room, and followed Dr. Montgomery to her office.

It's a big office.

In hospitals, and everywhere else, a large, independent office is a status symbol.

Richard, the chief of surgery, in order to attract Dr. Montgomery, proposed the best private service, including such a large independent office.

"Dr. Duncan, I hope you don't tell Dr. Stevenson about the results of the surgery. ”

Dr. Montgomery sat down and said this.

"Why?"

Adam was amazed.

"Emily didn't live 24 hours. ”

Dr. Montgomery looked at Adam and said seriously, "I want Dr. Stevenson to be in charge of her the whole time." ”

"Are you trying to ......?"

Adam glanced at her and understood her thoughts.

"That's right. ”

Dr. Montgomery nodded, "Dr. Stevenson has a good talent in pediatrics, I want to train her well, Emily is already like this, so I will leave her to take care of the whole process."

In the process, she will be scared and afraid.

But once she survived.

The next time she encounters a similar situation, she will be able to withstand more pressure.

Only by letting go of too much emotional attention to the patient can you become a better doctor.

Dr. Stevenson's biggest flaw is also here.

That's how I came back then. ”

"I see. ”

Adam nodded.

At this point, he believed in Dr. Montgomery's sincerity.

Because if you don't pay great attention to it, you will never choose to teach students in such a cruel way.

A lot of times, these are thankless.

"I hope you not only don't tell her, but you don't respond to her calls. ”

Dr. Montgomery said, "If Emily can make it through the night, I hope you're not in the hospital tonight and Dr. Stevenson will take care of everything." ”

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Adam looked at her: "From what I know about Leeds, she probably won't appreciate you doing this, and she might give up on pediatrics because of it." ”

"Then I can only say that I regret it. ”

Dr. Montgomery shook his head: "Whether it's pediatrics or other departments, if you want to be a good doctor, you have to go through this hurdle.

If she can't overcome it today, she gives up pediatrics.

Will you give up once you encounter it in the future?"

"Maybe she can only be an ordinary doctor. ”

Adam reminded.

"Perhaps. ”

Dr. Montgomery was stunned: "But at this moment, I hope to give her a chance, so that her talent will not be buried, as for how to choose in the future, it is her freedom." ”

This kind of opportunity, in fact, is also very rare.

If it weren't for the fact that he knew that he couldn't be saved, the attending doctor wouldn't have let his intern practice like this.

And there's also the issue of risk.

Once the family knows about it, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not sue the attending doctor when they are emotional.

Dr. Montgomery was willing to teach in this way.

Replaced by Christina and Adam, I know afterwards that I will be very grateful.

Of course.

If it were Adam and Christina, there was no need for such teaching.

It doesn't matter if they're cold or ruthless.

They just have the mentality that only a good doctor has.

"Hopefully, Leeds will understand Dr. Sheput's good intentions. ”

Adam nodded, "I know how." ”

"Hopefully. ”

Dr. Montgomery smiled helplessly.

Adam knew that.

In addition to this completely altruistic factor, there is naturally some selfishness of Dr. Montgomery himself.

After Adam politely refused.

She has only one way to train helpers on her own.

Originally, I had to take my time.

But now suddenly there is such an opportunity, once Leeds can leap over, the mentality can achieve a qualitative improvement.

And the mentality of a mature and excellent doctor, combined with Leeds' good talent, coupled with Dr. Montgomery's own full training.

Liz is easy to get out of the way quickly and becomes a good helper for her.

So Dr. Montgomery was willing to take even some risks.

Adam leaves the office.

Deliberately hiding from Leeds during the day.

Not even a small stove was turned on at night.

Of course, I can't open it if I want to.

Each of Mrs. Rusaibin's quintuplets in the neonatal intensive care unit was attended by a dedicated doctor.

Liz is naturally in charge of Emily.

The other four consisted of Meredith, Christina, George, and an intern, one for each of them.

Adam is on his own, so he can naturally communicate with Alice Grey.

But he agreed to Dr. Montgomery, fearing that Liz would find him, so he simply left the hospital and went to Robin's apartment to change her dressing.

She was wounded on her conscience.

Requires extra care.

Late at night.

Adam's pager kept ringing.

Liz called him desperately like crazy, which showed how anxious and frightened she was.

"Why don't you respond?"

Even Robin, who was able to sleep to death because of his recklessness, was woken up again and again, and asked puzzledly.

"Alas. ”

Adam told the story.

"Shhh ”

Robin gasped and said in disbelief, "You doctors still need to be trained like this?"

"It's not. ”

Adam shook his head: "Only excellent doctors need to have such a mentality, either born or cultivated, tonight is a key node." ”

"But that's cruel, isn't it?"

Robin couldn't bear it.

"Tonight's cruelty may save hundreds of patients in the future. ”

Adam sighed.

"This Leeds probably won't forgive Dr. Montgomery, and he won't forgive you. ”

Robin muttered.

"I don't need her to forgive. ”

Adam smiled: "I just need you to forgive~"

"Shhh

Robin gasped again, and he didn't know if he was shocked by Adam's sudden snack, or for something else, and the whole style of painting immediately changed.

The cruel reality is indeed uncomfortable, but life still has to be lived......
