Gu Jianqiu said to Xia Xueting: "I have been in the library for the past few days and have read a lot of books. One of the basic principles involved in cancer treatment is that for advanced cancer, chemotherapy and radiotherapy should not be used for a long time in large doses, and surgery is not suitable for surgical treatment. Then Chinese medicine is the best choice, we are studying Chinese medicine, why not give my aunt Chinese medicine treatment? ”

On the question of whether to use Western medicine or Chinese medicine for cancer treatment, Western medicine is the most common choice for patients. For Xia Xueting, who is studying Chinese medicine, in fact, there is also a vague worry about the uncertainty of the efficacy of Chinese medicine, which is why she chose Western medicine first after her mother was seriously ill. And now, Gu Jianqiu's statement has made her judge this issue rationally again.

Xia Xueting has checked her mother's pulse more than once these days, she fully knows how weak her mother's body is, and her righteous qi has been almost exhausted. She fully understands this truth, and she can understand it completely. But things are often like this, caring is chaotic, and when it comes to her relatives, Xia Xueting has a hard time making a choice.

Gu Jianqiu saw her confusion, and then said: "My aunt is now in the advanced stage of brain cancer, and Director Wang also said that even if you receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the possibility of cure for such a condition is almost zero. Since there is no cure for it, why don't we use palliative care? ”

"Palliative care?" Xia Xueting didn't react.

"Yes, palliative care is a method for terminal diseases such as terminal cancer that cannot be cured in recent years, that is, instead of trying to find a way to cure the terminal disease, but to adopt the idea of co-living with the terminal disease, surviving with cancer, and at the same time using various means to reduce the pain of the terminal illness, eliminate psychological fear, improve the spleen and stomach, and realize some unfulfilled wishes, so as to improve the quality of life of the terminally ill patients, and through guò straightening and other methods, as far as possible to inhibit the erosion of cancer cells on the body, so as to prolong the survival time. So that terminally ill patients can live the rest of their lives peacefully and happily. This may be a last resort and a more rational approach. ”

As a scholar, Xia Xueting certainly knows this kind of treatment idea, but she is now a family member of the patient, and she is thinking about how to cure her mother's terminal illness, and she has never thought about palliative care, a treatment method that lives peacefully with cancer. Now that Gu Jianqiu brought it up, she began to think about this problem.

Director Wang nodded and said, "This is not a solution, your mother's body is indeed not suitable for continuing high-dose radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and her brain cancer has also spread to multiple organs throughout the body, so it can be said that there is only a theoretical possibility to cure." In this case, it may be a last resort to be rational, and at the same time, it may be a better choice for the patient, rather than letting her suffer from illness for the remaining month or two, it is better to let her walk the last few steps of her life happily. ”

Xia Xueting's eyes turned red again, she lowered her head and sobbed, thought twice, and said to Director Wang: "How long can my mother live?" ”

Director Wang pondered for a moment and said, "According to the current state of the disease, based on our previous experience in treating patients, your mother is estimated to live for two months at most, maybe even shorter." ”

Xia Xueting burst into tears, sobbed, and looked up for a long time: "Can you let me think about it?" ”

"Yes, by the way, if you decide to receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy, then you have to choose drugs at the same time, there are two kinds of drugs for cancer treatment, imported and domestic, which one do you think to use? But let me make it clear to you first, Western medicine is very expensive, and it may be several times more expensive than domestic medicine. ”

"How much does it cost?"

"If Western medicine is used, the most conservative estimate is that the total medical expenses should be no less than 500,000 yuan. All of them are about 300,000 domestic drugs. And that's not even counting the money you've paid before, and that's a conservative estimate. If you want to be treated by us, you have to pay all the money in one lump sum. It's a hospital rule, and I can't help it. ”

Xia Xueting was stunned with tears in her eyes. As a family member of a patient, of course, they hope to use the best medicine to treat their relatives, but Xia Xueting's previous hospitalization medical expenses were borrowed by Gu Jianqiu, and in order to treat her mother, their family was already in debt and could no longer borrow money. Where to finance this huge expenditure?

Gu Jianqiu whispered to Xia Xueting: "Don't worry, let's find a way together, as long as we can cure my aunt's illness." ”

Xia Xueting nodded gratefully, at the moment he was so confused that he didn't know what to do.

When the two of them left the office, Director Wang added: "All the treatment fees must be paid to the hospital before getting off work tomorrow, so that we can arrange treatment, and the 100,000 yuan you paid before is almost used up." ”

The two returned to the ward and sat on either side of Xia's mother's bed.

After Gu Jianqiu gave him acupuncture, Xia Mu's spirit had mostly recovered, and from the faces of the two of them, this sensitive woman immediately sensed something, but she didn't ask. just said to Gu Jianqiu: "Hurry up and eat, it's cold." ”

Gu Jianqiu took the casserole noodles and ate them in a hurry. I want to hide the discomfort in my heart. As a person studying medicine, in the face of an incurable disease, the discomfort in my heart is beyond the comprehension of others.

When he finished eating the noodles, Xia Mu beckoned Gu Jianqiu to sit beside him. Holding Gu Jianqiu's hand with one hand and Xia Xueting's hand with the other, he said to Xia Xueting: "I am already mentally prepared for my illness. I'm not afraid of death, the only thing I can't worry about is you. Now I can rest assured, because Jian Qiu has promised to take care of you for me in the future. ”

Xia Xueting was born in grief, threw herself into her mother's arms, and cried loudly.

―――――――――――――――――――――――

The next morning, when Gu Jianqiu got up and put on his pants, he checked his injured leg in the mosquito net, and was surprised to find that the scabs had almost fallen off naturally, and the redness and swelling around him had already disappeared.

He knew that the progress of wound healing could never be so fast, and this could only be attributed to one reason, that is, the dead cultivator had changed his root bones, which also improved his body's self-repair ability, so he healed so quickly.

With this, Gu Jianqiu was very excited, which meant that his life was more secure.

As soon as he finished washing, he received a call from Xia Xueting, asking him if he had time. If you can, come to the hospital to help her, because the mother is going to be discharged.

Gu Jianqiu was taken aback, he didn't care about taking a bus, and took a taxi directly to the hospital.

When she arrived at the ward, Xia Xueting had already packed up her things and was waiting for him. I even bought a few handfuls of fresh vegetables and a knife of pork from the morning market, and it looks like I'm ready to cook at home. Xia Mu was lying on the bed neatly dressed, and when she saw him come in, she smiled and nodded slightly.

Xia Xueting borrowed a wheelchair from the hospital and put it next to the bed.
