"That's right. ”

After smoking a cigarette, when Zhou Fanyuan was about to renew it, he suddenly remembered something, and then turned his head to look at the third uncle.

"Ahem...... What, what's wrong?"

The middle-aged man was startled, subconsciously and hurriedly stood up, threw away the cigarette butt, stepped on the soles of his feet, and turned around to rush to the living room.

Zhou Fangyuan hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed him, "It's okay, the old man is fine." ”

It was hard to quiet down.

"What are you excited about, the old man is fine," Zhou Fangyuan patted the third uncle's shoulder hard, making him completely quiet, and then continued, "I just want to ask you, the situation on the fourth grandfather's side, have you told the other grandparents?"

But what is the answer, is not obvious?

"My dad won't let me say it," the third uncle squatted down against the wall, "he doesn't want us to trouble other uncles and aunts because of this......"

"Then do you think this is a trivial matter? Third uncle, you have to think about it, if this matter is known to my grandfather, his old man's temper will come up...... You don't know about it......"

"Huh, what should I do......

"Oh, my third uncle, why don't you understand, why don't you understand? Call! Hurry up and call all the old men to inform you of this matter!"

"But ......"

"Hehe, don't dare to fight, then you can see for yourself, anyway, I said what should be said, you decide what to do...... But if you regret it, don't blame me for not warning you beforehand, if you really annoy such a large group of old men—"

Zhou Fangyuan elongated his tone.

In fact, he doesn't have to do this, and the third uncle has already understood. Without saying a word, immediately start making calls.

Zhou Fangyuan, you stood beside him and watched the third uncle call out one by one.

Especially from his point of view, he clearly saw a few white hairs mixed in the third uncle's hair, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Geriatric disease, the disease is the elderly, but also the whole family.

It is said that there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, this sentence is actually telling the truth, because it is really difficult to take care of the sick, especially the elderly iceman, it is even more difficult.

Not only because of its own weakness and fragility, but also because the elderly often do not have more than one disease, and over time, people even specifically target the condition of the elderly, and all the diseases that occur in the elderly are collectively referred to as geriatric diseases.

Geriatric diseases, also known as geriatric diseases, refer to diseases related to aging and with their own characteristics that people suffer from in old age. The elderly are not only more sick than young people, but also have their characteristics, mainly because after people enter old age, the human tissue structure is further aged, the function of various organs is gradually impaired, the body's resistance is gradually weakened, the activity ability is reduced, and the cooperative function is lost.

Diseases that young people are susceptible to are called "geriatric diseases" and usually include the following three aspects:

The first is diseases specific to the elderly, which are only common to the elderly and have the characteristics of the elderly. In the process of aging, functional decline and disorders occur, such as senile dementia, senile psychosis, presbycusis, cerebral arteriosclerosis and the resulting stroke. These diseases associated with ageing and degeneration increase with age.

The second is the common diseases of the elderly, which can occur in middle and old age, but they are more common in old age or become more serious. It is related to the pathological aging of the elderly, the decline of the body's immune function, long-term strain or the decline of physical fitness due to young and middle-aged diseases. Such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, malignant tumors, gout, paralysis tremens, senile degenerative osteoarthropathy, senile chronic bronchitis, emphysema, cor pulmonale, senile cataract, senile osteoporosis, senile skin pruritus, senile pneumonia, hyperlipidemia, cervical spondylosis, prostatic hypertrophy and so on.

The third is the disease that can occur in the young, middle-aged and elderly people, but the onset of the disease in the old age has its characteristics, this kind of disease occurs in all ages, but due to the decline of the function of the elderly, the same lesion has its particularity in the elderly. For example, pneumonia can occur in people of all ages, and in older people, it can be characterized by atypical symptoms and more severe disease. For another example, peptic ulcer can occur in the young, middle-aged and elderly people, but the elderly are prone to complications or cancer.

The prevention and treatment of geriatric diseases is one of the important measures of geriatric health care, because the structure and function of various cells, organs and tissues of the elderly are aging with age, so the adaptability is reduced, the resistance is reduced, and the incidence increases. The diseases that the elderly in China are susceptible to are tumors, hypertension and coronary heart disease, chronic bronchitis and pneumonia, gallbladder disease, prostatic hypertrophy, femoral fracture and diabetes. The case fatality rate was pneumonia, cerebral hemorrhage, lung cancer, gastric cancer, acute myocardial infarction, etc.

The elderly are the continuation of young adults, and some geriatric diseases are developed in young adults, and the manifestations are more obvious in old age. Therefore, some geriatric diseases are not unique to the elderly, but they have different characteristics from those suffered from in the young and middle-aged years: the cause of geriatric diseases is often not very clear; the course of the disease is long, the recovery is slow, and sometimes it deteriorates suddenly; there are no obvious symptoms and signs, and the clinical manifestations are not easy to detect at the beginning, but the symptoms are diversified after they appear; the same disease varies greatly among different elderly people; a geriatric patient often suffers from several diseases at the same time; and there is still a lack of specific methods in the treatment and control of the disease.

Therefore, the diagnosis of geriatric diseases depends not only on physicians, but also on nurses, and geriatric examinations require the close cooperation of patients and their families. The same is true for prevention and special treatment, but unfortunately, many families, this is overlooked. Especially the old man himself, and even many times he himself already feels uncomfortable, he is reluctant to say it, and he still hides it and does not let people know.

It's not that he's afraid of being embarrassed, but he's worried about burdening his family and causing trouble to his children. But if you think about it, if any lesion is in the early stages, when it is still mild, the treatment is usually the simplest. Of course, prevention is definitely the easiest, but isn't it already sick now? So treatment is even more important.

However, many elderly people just hold such and such thoughts, minor illnesses drag on to major illnesses, major illnesses into terminal illnesses, and when the final examination results come out, then all kinds of headaches and crying?

The old man, maybe he has experienced a poor life, on the one hand, he is unwilling to cause trouble to his children, and on the other hand, he is also unwilling to spend money. After all, as long as it comes to seeing a doctor now, people generally feel that it is very expensive and expensive...... In fact, it is very expensive, it is very expensive, but after spending money, you can see a good doctor, your body is comfortable, your spirit is better, and you can live a few more years, isn't it good? The total amount of medical resources is limited, and there are only so many doctors and nurses, but how many people are in our country, and how many of them are even unable to see a doctor? In fact, in our country, seeing a doctor is already very simple, and it is already very cheap, if this is too expensive, then there is really no way.

For geriatric diseases, prevention, and early treatment are actually very, very important.

The measures to prevent and treat geriatric diseases are multifaceted, mainly to carry out physical exercise suitable for the elderly to enhance physical fitness, pay attention to reasonable diet, first of all, in terms of diet, should be as evenly distributed as possible to the amount of food intake a day, so that you can eat less and eat more often, and do not miss meals. Eat at least 3 meals a day, preferably 4 or 5 meals a day. Eat only eight or nine minutes full at each meal. Foods that are low in animal fat, cholesterol and salt should be consumed. Eat more vegetables and fruits rich in fiber, vitamins, and trace elements. And there should be enough high-quality protein. Seafood should not be eaten too much due to its high cholesterol content. Avoid eating irritating foods and drink harsh drinks. This can not only prevent the occurrence of a variety of cancers and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also improve energy. Quit smoking and other bad habits, avoid harmful stimuli, maintain personal hygiene, avoid long-term bed rest, respiratory tract infection, constipation, overwork, falls and other unexpected stimuli, and conduct regular physical examinations to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment of geriatric diseases.

In addition, it is necessary to have proper exercise, which can improve cardiopulmonary function, protect cardiovascular system, prevent osteoporosis and reduce mental stress. For the elderly, aerobic exercise is the most suitable form of exercise, such as walking, jogging, swimming, dancing, cycling, etc. When exercising, you should follow the principle of starting from low to high, starting with a small amount of exercise, step by step, and perseverance, and at the same time pay attention to choosing the right exercise according to the season and personal situation.

Exercise three to five times a week, each time or a sum of more than 30 minutes, and try to choose the time of exercise in the afternoon and evening. If you exercise early in the morning, it should not be done on an empty stomach. Eating a proper diet and exercising can help maintain an appropriate weight and prevent many serious geriatric diseases. Elderly friends who are already sick can also effectively control and alleviate the disease with their own efforts and the help of doctors.

In short, geriatric disease is definitely a very, very troublesome thing, not only in the disease itself, but also in the problem of care.

It is said that there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, this sentence has been handed down from ancient times, and this sentence itself can be handed down, which has a certain truth.

This is not just a proverb, but a summary of a relatively common social phenomenon over thousands of years. Its specific origin is unknown. "There is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time" means: the elderly (parents) are seriously ill and bedridden for too long, and no matter how filial and good the children are, they are bored and complaining, and when they are serious, they can't even see the figure.

"There is no filial son before the bed of a long illness" has been an objective and realistic problem since ancient times.

For thousands of years, no matter when and where, parents' love for their children has often exceeded their children's love for their parents several times or even a hundred times. If it is a mother who treats a sick child, she will take care of and worry about it day and night, without regrets, while children often blame each other and always find various reasons to excuse themselves. Of course, this sentence is not absolute, there are always some children who can always take care of the elderly, this sentence is mainly used to describe the difficulties of taking care of the elderly.

Because of old age and physical weakness, an illness can cost the elderly half a life, plus various complications, in serious cases, will completely lose the ability to take care of themselves, from simply drinking water and eating, to urinating and urinating, to dressing and walking by themselves, can not do anything, everything needs to be taken care of by children. In addition, the pressure of life is so great nowadays, and the children still have the juniors below to take care of, and they also have to earn money to support their families...... In short, it is really difficult to take care of the elderly, for those "unfilial" children, it is useless to denounce, but also to build a perfect system of old-age care to ensure the quality of life of the elderly. Of course, this sentence is widespread, Zhou Fangyuan only thought of this, he has no ability to solve this kind of thing at all.

It's just that he looks at the third uncle now, and when he met before, although the third uncle looks like an ordinary middle-aged man, he is younger than Zhou's father and Zhou Fangyuan's second and third uncles, so he does look younger. But now that I look at it, the fourth grandfather is sick, he came to take care of it, and it has only been a long time, and his hair has already turned white. The fourth grandfather, two sons and two daughters, it is impossible for only the third uncle to take care of him, and the fourth grandmother is in good health, it can be seen that taking care of the elderly is really a time-consuming, laborious, and painstaking job.

As soon as the phone call went out, Zhou Fangyuan's phone rang quickly, it was his grandfather's phone.

"Yangyang, are you still over there?"

"Yes. ”

"Your fourth grandfather's body, how is it now?"

"It looks good, at least it's stable. ”

"That's good, that's good, what, if there's nothing to do, you can come back first, the next few don't have to go first, they won't be there, I've notified them, let them come to the mansion to gather, you will see who is convenient for you later, pull together, and meet the mansion first." ”

Grandpa instructed.

The so-called big mansion is which villa where their family spent the New Year yesterday, where grandpa lives now, isn't there not going to go to the island in the middle of the lake? So Zhou Fangyuan got a big villa for his grandfather, it was already a few years ago, and the house in the city is still there, and he will occasionally go back to see, but basically if he lives, he is not very much over there.

Of course, you can't be idle all the time, so occasionally someone will come over to clean up, like the family needs a place to gather or something, if there is really no good place to go, you can go to the old house of grandpa's house. As for Zhou Fangyuan's family, the old house has been sold, and now there are only a few school district houses in the city, and they have never lived in it, so they are kept for Zhou Fangyuan's children in the future. Of course, it's really hard to say whether it can be used exactly, but at least it's prepared.
