Chapter Twenty-Three: Successful Rescue Temporary aphasia
At the door of the rescue room, a string of red numbers is constantly changing, recording the time passed through the whole process.
My anxious heart beat with its frequency, minute by minute, every second so long, every minute as if standing on a burning pile of wood and being roasted by the heat.
"It's been so long, why haven't you come out yet?!" I put my daughter on the bench, stood up and walked to the door of the rescue room, and grabbed the cold gray door with my hand, the door was two, and there was a gap in the middle, knowing that I couldn't see anything, but I still narrowed my eyes and aimed at the crack in the door, and sure enough, I couldn't see anything.
"Wait, it'll be fine!" my husband walked over and took my hand, hoping to pass on some confidence to me.
"Well, yes, it's going to be fine!" I pulled out my hand and held it down in reverse. Two hours later, the door opened, and out came a doctor dressed in blue and wearing a blue mask.
"Doctor, how is my mother?, is she awake?" I asked, rushing forward, unable to wait for a moment. The doctor took off the mask and said calmly,
"The patient has woken up! There is no danger to life!" I finally let go of my hanging heart, but I couldn't say a word, and quickly turned my back, not wanting the doctor to see the tears in the corners of my eyes.
"Thank you, doctor, thank you so much!" my husband sincerely expressed his gratitude to the doctor, turned back to me and said,
"Xiaolan, mom should be happy if she's fine, why are you crying again!"
"It's okay, I'm happy and want to cry!" After speaking, I didn't care about the image, I rubbed the corner of my eye with the sleeve of my clothes, turned to the doctor and said,
"Thank you so much, doctor, what caused my mother to fall into a coma?" At this time, I noticed that the doctor was a handsome male doctor, about 30 years old, with a very kind face.
"No thanks, wait for the patient to come out, get her some gruel, you go through the hospitalization procedures first, and then go to the second floor No. 208 consultation room, I will tell you about the specific situation and what to do next. "The doctor simply made arrangements for us.
"How many days is going to be hospitalized?what is my mother's illness?," I asked in one breath.
"Hospitalization is a must, it's hard to say how many days, it depends on the situation. At present, there is more than one reason for fainting. You go to the hospital first, and then come to the office to find me. After the doctor finished speaking, he walked into the operating room again to explain the nurse's follow-up treatment.
"Okay!" I agreed in unison as my husband looked at his back, and my heart tightened again.
After a while, a nurse pushed her mother out. I went up to meet her, and my husband followed closely with his daughter in his arms.
I saw my mother lying quietly on the hospital bed, with a machine monitoring heartbeat next to her, this scene was very similar to the moment when I gave birth and left the delivery room, but the person lying down today was her.
"Mom, how are you feeling? Is there anything particularly uncomfortable?" I looked down at her eyes that seemed to be tired and unrefreshed, holding her tightly with one hand and wiping the tears uncontrollably with the other.
Mom didn't speak, she raised the corners of her mouth at me, I knew she was tired, and wanted to let me know that she was fine through a smiling expression, so that I could rest assured.
My husband went to the hospital, and I followed the nurse to the inpatient department with my daughter. Because I didn't dress my daughter when I went out, I had to continue to wrap my coat and continue to hold it, and my daughter kept writhing in my arms, trying to find grandma, my mother moved to the inside of the bed, pointing to the next position, meaning to let my daughter lie with her.
As soon as the daughter went, she hugged her mother's neck and kept screaming
"Grandma", and then affectionately put it on face to face. After the hospitalization procedures were completed, my husband and I came to the 208 consultation room, the doctor who rescued him just now was bowing his head and writing, we knocked on the door, the doctor raised his head and nodded to let us in.
"Doctor, what is my mother's illness?" I can't wait to find out the exact cause.
"A small stroke caused by high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis, temporary aphasia and inability to move normally in the left leg. You delivered it in a timely manner and did not cause other complications. The doctor's tone was slow and calm, as if he was talking about a very ordinary trivial matter at home, but every word he said to me was like a thunderbolt on my head on a sunny day, like a lake without the slightest ripple being pushed into a boulder, I was stunned for a moment, speechless, my mind seemed to see a splash of water, and my heart was overwhelmed by the boulder.
"Doctor, what do you mean by aphasia and can't move normally?!" The husband standing next to him couldn't believe it, and the surprise made him lose his ability to understand.
"Aphasia means that you can't speak for a while, your left leg can't move freely for a while, and you can't walk for a while. You will need to be hospitalized for a period of time, but if the results are good, you can recover slowly. With a good-natured smile on the doctor's face, he continued,
"During this time, you need your family to cooperate well, take good care of the patient, do some massages frequently, try to accompany her to get out of bed and exercise, and give her more psychological encouragement, and her body will naturally recover faster. Of course, this process cannot be achieved overnight, you must be mentally prepared and have plenty of patience. There are a lot of patients who end up getting back to normal, so don't be too pessimistic. ”
"Can it really be normal?" I asked, the doctor's last words like a beacon on the shore in the distance late at night.
"We do our best together, and there is hope. "The doctor tried to cheer us up.
"How many days does it cost?" the husband said urgently, referring to more practical questions.
"Let's stay for a week and see how the treatment goes, I'm not sure how many days it will take now, it depends on the patient's condition. If your condition is stable, you can go home later and have regular check-ups. The doctor explained slowly.
My husband and I both nodded and didn't speak. After the doctor explained the detailed treatment plan one by one, I walked out of the consultation room with my husband's half-help and half-help, and my mind was blank and blank.
My husband dropped me off at my mother's bed in the ward, looked at my mother, asked the nurse, and went out to buy daily necessities for the hospital.
The daughter may have been tired from tossing in the morning, lying next to her mother and already asleep, with her arms on her chest and her head resting on her shoulders.
I was afraid that my mother would not feel comfortable sleeping, and I was about to pick up my daughter, as soon as my hand was stretched out, I saw my mother shaking her head at me, I understood what she meant, so I had to adjust the quilt.
"Mom, are you hungry, do you want to eat something?" After asking, I remembered that my mother was now in a state of aphasia, and a wave of sadness came up again.
"Then when Qiangzi comes back, I'll go buy you some porridge. The mother nodded, then tilted her head on her daughter's head and closed her eyes, with a shallow smile on her pale face.
I sat on the edge of the bed and quietly looked at the haggard face, my guilty heart empty and weak. At this time, I realized that my mother will also get old, and I can't always be a child in her arms.
Hadron was very fast, and after a while, he came back with a bunch of things, as well as three bowls of packaged rice porridge.
"Eat some, make sure you can take care of your mother!" he put down his things and handed over the porridge,
"You eat first, and then feed your mother!I'll feed my daughter!" Looking at my husband who was running around, I was very moved.
"Husband, thanks to you today, thank you! "Obviously, my husband didn't expect me to say this, and his eyes were a little red.
"Mom is your mom, and it's my mom!
"Eat some, don't be busy yet. I handed him the porridge in distress, but he pushed it away. I was about to open the lid of the bowl when my phone rang, and it was the editor Xiao Li.
"Sister Lan, why didn't you come to work?" Xiao Li asked with concern.
"Oh yes, it's noon, I'm busy forgetting. My mom is sick and now in the hospital, you can help me take a leave of absence, it may take a week. "I simply said, ask her for help.
"That's it, okay, it's just that now a woman from the company has named you to find you, it looks like there's something wrong, it's been a morning, I asked her to come another day, she just won't. Xiao Li said helplessly.
"Oh, you just said that I won't go to the company these days, let her change the day. Okay, I'm going to take care of my mom, hang up first, thank you. "I don't care about any woman, so I only gave a rough explanation to Xiao Li.
woke up the mother and daughter, fed them some porridge respectively, remembered that she was going to ask her daughter for leave, and quickly sent a message to her teacher on her mobile phone.
Everything was stopped, and I discussed with my husband about the hospital in the next few days, thinking that I would have to accompany the room day and night, and take care of my daughter, so I couldn't be sloppy at all.
