Chapter 69: The Patient Abandoned by His Family

When Xu Rufei came back, he saw such a scene, Ge Yan was holding Grandma Wang, the crystal in the corner of his eyes had not disappeared, and he thought that maybe his Ge Yan was not as repulsive as she said about lepers. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Grandma Wang fell asleep quickly, not because she was drowsy, but because of the coma caused by the compression of the brain nerves after the sudden coma, but whether it was Xu Rufei, the attending doctor, or several other qualified doctors, they were helpless against this patient.

Her condition is not suitable for craniotomy, so the results faced by Grandma Wang are naturally self-evident.

"I called her son, but it won't be until at least tomorrow night when I fly back from San Francisco, and I don't know if Grandma Wang will be able to make it through." Xu Rufei's voice was a little choked, after all, he had taken care of patients for more than three years, and he already had feelings with them.

Ge Yan couldn't understand this feeling, but she could also imagine the grief of the death of a loved one, especially the helplessness and pain of watching her slowly run out of vitality and she couldn't do anything about it.

After the nurse came to take over, the two left the inpatient building, but Xu Rufei did not return to the office.

"The morning's mission is over, let's go sit down there." Ge Yan couldn't help but say that he pulled Xu Rufei, who was still in mourning, to the pavilion surrounded by green vines.

It's noon, and although the heat hasn't arrived yet, many people avoid the noonday sun.

Xu Rufei subconsciously shielded Ge Yan from the direct sunlight, but Ge Yan didn't care: "It's okay, anyway, I'm white, I can't tan, hehe." ”

I have seen Ge Yan's strange expression, but Xu Rufei was still cute by her innocent smile, and most of his heavy mood was cut off.

Ge Yan was happy in his heart, although he knew that he was quite stupid like this, but when he saw Xu Rufei finally laugh, he also felt that it was worth it.

"I overheard Grandma Wang's phone call, her phone call with her family." Xu Rufei suddenly talked about Grandma Wang.

Ge Yan was stunned, she had heard Xu Rufei say more than once that the patients here all lived a life of "isolation", saying that isolation from the world is not like being cut off from the outside world when surviving on an island, but that most of their contact with the outside world relies on communication equipment, and few people will take the initiative to contact people, because those people avoid them like snakes and scorpions.

Once the label of infectious disease is applied, this group of people is doomed to be unable to communicate with people normally, but ...... However, their families do not seem to understand the distress of the patients, and they do not seem to understand the loneliness of this group.

Although leprosy has been defined as an incurable infectious disease for a long time, modern medical treatment has developed, the level of medicine has advanced rapidly, and leprosy has long been separated from the incurable series of diseases, but many people's concepts do not seem to have changed with the pace of medicine.

Ge Yan understands a little, after all, after so many years, some concepts have been deeply rooted, and even those of them who study medicine are taboo against this kind of patients, let alone ordinary people?

"Her family doesn't want to come to see her?" Ge Yan could only think of this result.

Xu Rufei looked at the inpatient building with mixed feelings: "Maybe for them, this place is like a barrier to isolate H7N9." ”

"Although they are both contagious, how can these two diseases be compared!" Ge Yan had never experienced the embarrassment of being isolated by this group, so she did not have an in-depth understanding of the disease.

But even so, isn't the fundamental difference between the two diseases recognized?

"I heard her longing for her son, hoping to let her take a look at Yan Sun, saying that she didn't attend the wedding when her grandson got married, and the granddaughter-in-law who had only met her once was about to forget her appearance, and Xiao Yan Sun only answered the phone when he was born...... "The latter words don't need Xu Rufei to say, Ge Yan can guess the result."

When the family immigrated to the United States, Grandma Wang lived in the Sixth Hospital. Maybe it's because she has been neglected for a long time, she is used to such a way of life, and she is also used to being indifferent to human nature, so when she shows tolerance and undisguised concern for them, she likes Xu Rufei so much and treats Xu Rufei as a family member.

"Her family will come, right?" Grandma Wang's situation made Ge Yan worried, in addition to sympathy and pity, more doubts came to Ge Yan's heart.

"Rufei, can you tell me why you care so much about them?"

Yes, Ge Yan's suspicion has lasted for too long, and in the face of this group of vulnerable groups, they will sympathize and pity, but many people, including the doctors of the Sixth Hospital, will not have the enthusiasm of Xu Rufei to treat them as family.

The doctors and nurses of the Sixth Hospital accepted this group of patients only because of their duties, and their nature as doctors did not allow them to ignore this group of patients, but they only accepted them, and did not reach such closeness as their families at all.

If Xu Rufei is very emotional about a patient like Grandma Wang because she lost her parents since she was a child, Ge Yan doesn't want to believe it, she always feels that Xu Rufei's feelings for this hospital far exceed that of home.

But in the face of Ge Yan's question, Xu Rufei was silent.

For a long time, he didn't wait for Xu Rufei's answer, and Ge Yan didn't rush to ask, until he came home from work that day, and when the two were watching the scenery on the balcony, Xu Rufei took out a case that he had hidden that had turned yellow.

The handwriting on the case is already a little blurry, but Ge Yan can still vaguely distinguish the word Xu Wan, and there are some small tooth marks in the corners of the case, like traces of being gnawed by Xiaoqiang rats.

"My mom she...... It's leprosy. ”

He had never told this secret to anyone, even if Xu Rufei didn't mind anymore, he would be worried about Ge Yan's eyes looking at him.

Maybe he cared too much about it, he didn't dare to let Ge Yan know that his mother had leprosy, which was not hereditary, but if he knew that the relatives of people close to him had had leprosy, he would be somewhat worried, but the slightest crack would one day become an unbridgeable chasm.

Xu Rufei felt that if that day came, he would definitely be worse off than dead.

Is it okay to just hide it?

Maybe it's easier to conceal it, but he firmly denied this idea, he must confess to Ge Yan, and I hope that Ge Yan can tolerate him and not leave suddenly for this reason.

Indeed, I have to say that Xu Rufei was right.

Ge Yan experienced the changes of Grandma Wang, and there was no previous rejection of leprosy, and she didn't know what the reason was at this time, but she suddenly remembered that when she met Grandma Wang for the first time, she guessed that she was Xu Rufei's girlfriend without warning.

"I want to see Grandma Wang again." She was eager to ask her how she had guessed.
