Life and death love story "Save You"
She passed on her questions to Dr. Zhu at that time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Dr. Zhu explained: "Don't look at this patient's condition has reached a very serious level. But he is also self-reliant and has a certain culture. I'll tell him the exact location of your ward. He'll find it there. ”
After Fang Xiaowan finished talking to Dr. Zhu on the phone, she suddenly became curious about this patient. This is because most patients are carried into this ward and out at the end. But no patient has been able to walk into this 'death ward' in person.
She went to the door of the building to greet the patient.
After waiting for more than twenty minutes, an old man with faltering steps came into her eyes.
I saw that he was skinny, about sixty years old, his face was full of vicissitudes and haggardness, he walked, a little staggering, leaning on a cane, tremblingly approaching the door of the ward.
Fang Xiaowan was a little confused, not sure if this old man was a patient or not. Because judging by his demeanor and movements, he should be a patient. But if he is the patient he is waiting for, then why doesn't he even have a family member by his side?
When the old man saw a woman in a white coat standing at the door of the building, he couldn't help but stop in front of her and asked in a low voice, "Is this the recovery ward?"
Fang Xiaowan flashed her body and exposed the sign on the side of the door to the old man: "Yes, this is the recovery ward." ”
"Oh, is the third ward on the second floor?"
Fang Xiaowan's eyes lit up: "Are you going to the third ward?"
"Yes. ”
"Are you an inpatient in the hospital?"
"Oh. ”
Fang Xiaowan said curiously: "Isn't there a family member to accompany you?"
Fang Xiaowan's words seemed to touch the old man's pain, making him reply with a gloomy face: "If I have a family member, will I still use it here to wait for death?"
Fang Xiaowan was not surprised that the old man lost his temper, because all patients at this stage would be anxious. However, to her surprise, the old man was actually a single old man.
"Uncle, don't get angry, it won't help your condition. I am your future attending physician. If you have any difficulties or requirements, please contact me directly. ”
Fang Xiaowan said as she reached out to support one of his arms.
Unexpectedly, the old man snorted coldly: "Since I live here, what doctor do I need? ”
Fang Xiaowan was puzzled: "Since you are an inpatient patient, of course you need a doctor." ”
"Hmph, you girl, don't think I don't know what's going on here. ”
Fang Xiaowan panicked: "What do you know?"
The old man stared at her, "How long have you been working here?"
"It's been almost two years. ”
"Oh, it's not a short time. Let me ask you, did any of the patients you treated get out alive?"
"This..."
The old man's words also touched Fang Xiaowan's fragile nerves. Tears welled up in her eyes.
When the old man saw that he was crying, he also realized that his words were a little hurtful. However, he was not in the mood to apologize to the young female doctor, and hung his head gloomily.
Fang Xiaowan gently wiped the tears that flowed down her cheeks, and then reached out to hold one of the old man's arms: "Uncle, please come in with me." ”
When the old man saw that she showed enough generosity, his heart was slightly hot, and he obediently walked into the door of the building with her support.
Because Fang Xiaowan was a patient and was old, he used the elevator to go up to the second floor and arranged for him on the empty bed that had just been vacated.
Although the bed had been replaced with new sheets and luggage, Fang Xiaowan's eyes flashed with the figure of the original patient, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
The patients in the adjacent bed and their families were just terrified of the patient who died in that bed, but when they saw another patient living on it, they were terrified.
Fang Xiaowan knew that the old man had just moved in, and they all needed to adapt to the process. She personally ran up and down, helped him complete the hospitalization procedures, and then chatted with him about family life: "Uncle Feng, you are retired, right?"
Because she had been busy for herself for most of the day, the old man felt that she was a warm-hearted girl, and his attitude eased a lot, but when he heard her inquiry, he showed gloom again: "I have no formal job in my life." ”
Fang Xiaowan was suddenly surprised: "Since you are not retired, where will your hospitalization expenses come from?"
The old man explained: "Although I don't have a formal job in my life, I have worked hard all my life and finally accumulated some old money. I now pay for health insurance and social security to maintain the cost of hospitalization. ”
Fang Xiaowan still frowned and said: "But the reimbursement ratio of social medical insurance is not too high. And will your Social Security salary cover the rest of the expenses?"
The old man pondered for a moment, and then replied: "In addition to paying medical insurance and social security, my savings have taken a period of targeted medicine. Now I really don't have any money. However, I still have a house at home, which I can sell to pay for medical expenses. ”
"Ahh
The old man looked very calm: "I'm afraid I won't be able to go home again, and I don't have children or daughters, why do I need that house?"
Fang Xiaowan felt that the old man's speech made sense, so she nodded happily: "If you want to make this place your home in the future, you will sell the house and fall to the ground is a wise choice." ”
In the process of chatting next, Fang Xiaowan finally learned about the old man's bumpy experience in his life, and couldn't help sighing.
As soon as she saw that the old man still had a certain ability to take care of himself, she suggested: "Although you don't have a family member to accompany the bed, your health is okay, it's best not to hire a nurse first, you can save some costs." ”
The old man couldn't help but wonder: "But if that's the case, then who will help me cook?"
Fang Xiaowan smiled indifferently: "You don't have to worry about this. Our nurses can do it for you. And I go to the cafeteria every day to eat, and I can also buy food for you casually. ”
The old man's deep eyes stared at her: "Girl, why are you so good to me?"
"Hehe, because you're my patient. ”
The old man pondered for a while before he said emotionally, "You are a good doctor. Even if it doesn't heal my illness, it can heal my heart. ”
Fang Xiaowan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Actually, malignant tumors are still a difficult problem in medicine at present. Even if you've taken targeted drugs, they've only temporarily curbed it, but they can't eradicate it. However, since you can't destroy cancer cells, let them live in the body, and try not to let them affect normal cells too much. And the best way to curb cancer cells from wreaking havoc in the body is to improve your own immunity. The good attitude of cancer patients is the key factor that determines their own immunity. So, if I can restore you to a good state of mind, it will also be my success as a doctor. As the saying goes, 'benevolence heals the heart'. ”
When the old man heard this, he couldn't help but show a confused look: "Really?"
Fang Xiaowan looked at the old man's confused expression, and gave him an analogy: "Uncle, let's compare our body to a beautiful garden." The cells of our body are different kinds of flowers. The better the flowers in this garden grow, the more we are the most alive. However, cancer cells are like weeds that suddenly emerge from the gaps in each flower. Because of their strong growth, they not only compete for the growth space of flowers, but also easily die those flowers. In this way, our lives will come to an end. So, if we want to live, we have to keep those flowers. ”
The old man had been listening to Fang Xiaowan's explanation in astonishment, and when he heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up: "Then how to keep these flowers?"
Fang Xiaowan pondered for a moment, then continued: "We don't have to eradicate those weeds to protect flowers. The best thing to do is for them to live in harmony with each other. ”
"Haha, your girl's words make me feel fresh. So let's talk about it, how do you make weeds not affect the growth of flowers?"
Fang Xiaowan said with a smile: "You have to admit that those weeds are also part of the garden, don't deliberately try to eradicate it, if you want to make the garden beautiful, sometimes you need to treat the weeds as flowers." Just like cancer cells in the body, we have to admit that they are part of our body..."
"Girl!" the old man immediately interrupted, "it's a part of my body, don't involve yourself, it will be very unlucky." ”
Fang Xiaowan smiled indifferently: "This is nothing unlucky. In fact, cancer cells do not appear out of nowhere. It has long been in everyone's body. It's just that it doesn't necessarily grow rampantly in everyone. ”
The old man couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Alas, I am the unlucky one. Those damn cancer cells just found me. ”
Fang Xiaowan hurriedly said: "None of us can prevent cancer cells from wreaking havoc in the body, just like a garden can't refuse weeds." But for our life force to exist, it is necessary to increase the immunity of our body's normal cells. Let them not be easily defeated by cancer cells, at least become a strong force with those cancer cells. ”
"Oh, so how can you increase the immunity of normal cells?"
"Mindset is a very important factor in enhancing the immunity of normal cells. If we have an optimistic mindset, we can let some diseases go around us. Otherwise, we will get sick easily. ”
The old man pondered for a while before nodding lightly: "You have a certain amount of truth in what you said. If a person is depressed and sad, it is easy to get sick. It's the so-called 'depression becomes a disease'. ”
Fang Xiaowan couldn't help but laugh: "Uncle Feng, since you understand this truth, then why don't you let your mood shine brightly? If your mentality is healthy, it is equivalent to injecting a dose of strong vitality into the normal cells in your body, so that they can compete with cancer cells for their own space." It's just like letting your own garden instill a little dew into the bright flowers, so that they can continue to compete for beauty under the peep of the weeds, exuding a fragrance that penetrates into the heart. ”
Under the vivid persuasion of Fang Xiaowan's image, the old man's gray and dim mood seemed to glow with a dazzling brilliance.
