Chapter 268: Spinocerebellar Disorders

"Nie Zheng, you don't...."

Tang Ning didn't say the word "nonsense", she knew that Nie Zheng's guess could be 99% correct, but it was 100% cruel.

"Not bad!"

Scold--

With Dr. Mizuno's affirmative answer, Tang Ning's feet softened, and then his arms tightened, it was Nie Zheng who helped her, she slowly calmed down, shook her head, and broke free from Nie Zheng's arms.

"What is this disease called?"

As a killer, Nie Zheng is used to seeing life and death, his words are still so plain, this is also his character, he doesn't like to be tied up by problems, he only likes that he can control the problem, and if you want to control it, you must face it.

"Medically it is called spinocerebellar atrophy, which is not called that by our doctors and patients' families, and it is generally called spinocerebellar disorder. ”

Everyone understands the difference, "atrophy" is like a withered flower, if it withers, it will turn into spring mud, that is, it will disappear from the world, and "disorder" is like an untimely alarm clock, if it is adjusted, it can return to normal, perhaps this is an optimistic idea of doctors and patients' families.

"What will be the symptoms of this disease?"

Nie Zheng's words were like bullets, constantly hitting Tang Ning's heart, but he couldn't dodge.

"When this disease occurs, there will be no obvious symptoms, but when the patient walks, it is easy to fall, but when he stands up, he is no different from an ordinary person..."

"When a patient falls, is it impossible to control both hands?"

"That's right!" Dr. Mizuno nodded, "When a normal person falls, he will use his hands to support the ground, but when Xiaoli falls, her hands and feet are weak at the same time, so she will hit her chin." ”

Nie Zheng is a hard-hearted person, but he can't help but be moved when he hears this, it's not that he can't accept that Xiaoli has this disease, don't say that Xiaoli and him are just meeting in Pingshui, even if they are as close to him as Tang Ning, there is no way to do it, but he regrets it a little, he has always used "scheming" to describe this girl, but this is not the case.

"And then on...."

"Well, then, you can't control the direction very well, that is, you can't walk straight, you will be skewed when you write, and when you touch things with your hands, there will often be mistakes, so that you don't catch that thing..."

With Dr. Mizuno's explanation, Xiaoli's previous abnormalities have been well explained one by one, she will lose the game of touching her nose with Qingqing, she can't stand on one foot, and the words she writes don't match her appearance at all....

"In the later stage of the disease, she will slowly lose the ability to walk, the mobility of her hands will be greatly reduced, and finally she will lose the ability to speak, and even swallowing will be very hard, and even a little cold, which will also make her cardiopulmonary function unable to ......"

"Ahh Senior Brother Mizuno!" Tang Ning hurriedly said: "It can't be like that, Xiaoli loves to play basketball and run the most, she... She's only 15!"

"I mean it will be like this in the future, not now!" Dr. Mizuno's reassurance looked weak.

"Can this disease be cured?"

Nie Zheng's question made Tang Ning almost dare not breathe, and she looked at Doctor Mizuno.

"I've been a doctor for exactly 10 years..... Dr. Mizuno paused, shaking his head, "I haven't seen a patient who has fully recovered...."

"Ah.....h

Tang Ning couldn't say a word anymore, the shock and sadness in her heart had surpassed everything, and even tears could not flow out.

"We can only control it and delay its aggravation..... Dr. Mizuno continued, "This disease is a small number of cases, and even the entire Blue Star does not have many research institutes that are really engaged in studying this disease. The human brain is the most complex

I once discussed with an authority in this area, and he agreed with my answer, we chose to study neurology because this subject was so amazing, and we wanted to conquer him with our own ability, but after really becoming a doctor, and even promoted to an authority, we found that in the face of the human brain, we are like a primary school student facing a world-class problem..."

"Mizuno!" Zhao Xiaoying's voice trembled: "Didn't you say that there is a research institute that has made a breakthrough in this area..."

"Yes, they have already started experiments on white mice...."Mizuno shook his head again and said: "I don't know if the experiment is successful or not, even if it is successful, it will only be on white mice, and it will take time to transform it into humans...."

"Mizuno, didn't you say that this disease will develop slowly, it's not a matter of one or two days, until Xiaoli can't speak, at least ten years, isn't ten years enough?"

In the face of Zhao Xiaoli's questioning, Mizuno still kept the doctor's insipidity, "I don't dare to give you any guarantees, but at this stage of the white mouse experiment, they already have no funds, didn't they tell you last week?"

"You let them continue, and I will find a way to fund them!" Zhao Xiaoying said very resolutely.

"These are not the most urgent problems to solve, the problems we have to solve at the moment are...."

"No! It's too cruel!" Zhao Xiaoying said resolutely: "We can't tell Xiaoli the actual situation, just let her think that she is just autonomic and uncoordinated, let her finish high school happily, and be admitted to college, isn't it?"

"No! that's the cruelest!"

It was not Dr. Mizuno who spoke, but Nie Zheng, and Zhao Xiaoying and Tang Ning both looked at him in surprise, not understanding what he meant.

"First, the sick person is Xiaoli, she has the right to know her body, second, Mizuno didn't say that if she has this disease, one day, Xiaoli will lose the ability to walk, in this case, that is to say, almost every day, it can be said that she can walk with her feet, there are only 24 hours in a day, who can deprive her of the right to walk for 24 hours!"

"I'm also Mr. Nie's idea!" Mizuno nodded, "Back to the beginning, the boy I mentioned, he got this disease at the age of 8, because he was young, his physical function was not strong, and he deteriorated rapidly, and he couldn't walk at the age of 12, and he died at the age of 14, so we just took a concealed attitude towards him."

When he lost the ability to walk, he kept questioning me, why didn't he tell him earlier, he kept asking me for his right to walk, saying that if he had known earlier, he could walk, he would never ride in a car, he would never stand, he would never sit down, he could play football, he would never play electric at home...."

"Teacher Tang!" Zhao Xiaoying said in a low voice, "Do you think I should tell Xiaoli?"

Tang Ning glanced at Nie Zheng, gritted his teeth, and said with tears in his eyes: "Yes!"

"Mr. Nie, should I tell Xiaoli?"

"Of course!"

"It must be!" Dr. Mizuno pulled out a diary from his pocket, "Look, this is the diary that Xiaoli wrote last night. ”
