78. Nine years of separation

After the old captain woke up, Jian Ling helped him carefully check it, and his condition seemed to be more serious than he imagined.

Because of the old injury, his spine fell into a rather deep crack, coupled with the fatigue of these years, he did not pay attention to cultivation at all, the scar has been cracked, and the slightest movement will be painful. If left untreated, the vertebrae are likely to break off, and the sciatic nerve will be implicated, directly leading to paralysis of the lower half of the body.

Faced with this situation, the old captain, who had experienced a lot of ups and downs, looked calm: "I know my own body, don't bother too much, just prescribe me some medicine." ”

"Taking medicine can only relieve the pain, but not cure it," Jian Ling said very directly.

How to deal with patients is also a compulsory course for doctors, and choose different ways of speaking to deal with different patients, such as the old captain in front of him, who has rich experience and can do everything in his heart. When facing him, it is best to speak frankly, for a roundabout tactful approach will cause him to resent him.

The old captain's purpose is actually to relieve the pain, and it can't be cured anyway, so it's good to at least reduce the pain. But seeing Jian Ling's expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a cure?" ”

"The cracked spine can be surgically re-immobilized, and then with the help of drugs, it can grow and heal again."

She said it easily and simply, but the process was extremely complicated. For example, how to fix the wound, how to ensure that the wound will not dehisce twice, what drugs are used for adjuvant treatment, and what are the ingredients of these drugs......

She had to solve these bits and pieces of crucial detail one by one, and although she had done similar bone grafting operations before, there had never been a case with a history as long as that of the old captain.

Decades of old disease, some places near the wound have been calcified, just like a hunchback, the back is hunched down in an invisible time, and when it is found, it is difficult to straighten it again.

Therefore, the difficulty of this operation is very high, and she needs to think about it again.

The old captain hesitated: "How sure are you that you can be cured?" ”

"According to preliminary estimates, there should be fifty percent."

Fifty percent of the certainty is based on the premise that the calcification of the wound is not very serious, and if the true degree of calcification exceeds the expectation, the probability of success is likely to be not even twenty percent.

Looking at Jian Ling's serious expression, the old captain smiled indifferently: "I have been licking blood on the tip of the knife all these years, no matter what I do, as long as the success rate can exceed thirty percent, I will definitely do it." This time, there are fifty percent, and it seems that God still favors me. ”

"You mean, you're willing to accept the surgical option?"

"The worst outcome of surgery is death, which is better than being paralyzed in bed and becoming a waste."

Jian Ling nodded clearly: "I understand, I will explain the operation to Nick carefully." ”

Speaking of Nick, the old captain's eyes moved: "During this time, Nick has been taken care of by you. ”

"It's not about taking care of each other, it's just taking advantage of each other."

Jian Ling said very indifferently, but the old captain glanced at her meaningfully: "Nick made you angry?" ”

"I don't know like a child."

"Heh, Nick is indeed too young, although he is two years older than you, but he can't talk and act as calmly as you do. With someone like you watching him, I'm kind of relieved......"

Jian Ling wanted to say that he would leave after he cured his illness, but before he could say anything, he saw him close his eyes and breathe smoothly into hibernation.

Forget it, she doesn't take patients seriously.

Leaving the old captain's room, she went to the guest room on the fourth floor, closed the doors and windows, turned on the computer, and began to arrange the specific plan of the operation.

Just like playing a piano, your fingers fly quickly on the virtual operation page, and when you encounter a complicated place, your fingers will stop, and after a short hesitation, you will make the most suitable choice......

Time passed quickly, and by the time she came to her senses, the clock on the wall was already pointing to six o'clock.

She sat on the swivel chair, her toes slightly strained, and the whole person spun in circles on the chair.

Standing up, she stretched out and was about to pour a glass of water when there was a knock on the door at the right time.

"Who?"

"Dr. Jane, I'll bring you dinner."

Jian Ling walked over and opened the door, and saw Aunt Amy standing at the door with a meal, with a slight smile on her white and fat face: "It's time for dinner, but I haven't seen you come out, so I brought it to you, hurry up and eat it while it's hot." ”

Jian Ling turned sideways and let her in, the meal was very simple, a serving of rice, a bowl of fresh fish soup, and a plate of home-cooked fried meat.

Aunt Amy looked polite: "I'm sorry, there are no good things here, so I can only ask you to make do with some food." If it doesn't taste right, please let me know and I'll do my best to improve it. ”

Jian Ling tried to take a sip of the soup: "Very good, thank you for your hospitality." ”

Seeing that she didn't have any dissatisfaction, Aunt Amy breathed a sigh of relief, and should have turned to leave, but after thinking for a while, she still opened her mouth: "No matter what is lacking, just open your mouth, we will definitely meet any of your needs, the old captain's illness...... You have to put more effort into it. ”

Looking at her nervous eyes, Jian Ling put down the spoon in his hand: "Don't worry, I will do my best." ”

Hearing this, Aunt Amy was not only relieved, but her eyes were red: "The old captain is a good man, he was the one who saved me from the traffickers, and I was still pregnant at that time, if it weren't for him...... My son and I are long dead. He is a great benefactor of our mother and son, as long as you can save him, you can let us do anything"

Jian Ling found a handkerchief to wipe her face, and said helplessly: "You just need to let me finish this meal quietly now." ”

Aunt Amy paused slightly, her white face immediately flushed crimson, and she said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm disturbing your meal, I'll leave." ”

"Well, by the way, help me invite your young master, I have something to look for him."

After Aunt Amy left, Jian Lingsi ate slowly, and when she was halfway through a bowl of rice, there was another knock on the door outside.

"The door is unlocked, come in by yourself."

Nick pushed the door in, saw that Jian Ling was still eating, and said, "Did I disturb you?" Why don't I come back later......"

"Don't be so troublesome, come and sit," Jian Ling put down his rice bowl and looked up to see his eyes flickering, "What, have something to say?" ”

“…… I'm sorry. ”

"Huh?"

"I apologize to you for the threat just now, I was a little confused at that time, and I spoke a little heavier, please don't take it to heart."

Jian Ling looked at him quietly, until he saw that his scalp was numb, and then he slowly spoke: "Now you are not in a bad mood?" ”

"I'm calm now."

"If I tell you now that your father needs surgery, will you still be calm?"

Nick jumped up: "What? ”

Jian Ling looked at him for a long time, as if smiling: "Aren't you already calm?" Your dad is really right, you are still too impetuous. ”

Nick didn't care so much, his hands were propped up on the table, his upper body pressed against her, and his eyes widened to confirm again: "What surgery?" Are there any dangers? ”

Compared with his impatience, Jian Ling was as leisurely as if he was drinking afternoon tea, and his expression was as indifferent as water: "But any operation, there will definitely be danger, and the success rate is about half." ”

Noticing the change in his expression, she continued, "Don't be in a hurry to mess with me, because even if you fall out, fifty percent will still be fifty percent, and it is impossible to become sixty percent." So, now please sit back, I don't want to talk with my neck up, it's tiring. ”

He stared at her for a long time, and finally retreated in defeat under her calm gaze, and sat back helplessly: "If you fail, what will be the result?" ”

"You can be paralyzed, you can be in a vegetative state, you can die."

His face became more and more ugly: "How can this be, Dad looks like a mountain that will not fall, how can he say that he will fall down......"

Jian Ling calmly looked at the painful appearance of him holding his head, and when he calmed down a little, he said lightly: "Instead of dwelling on what hasn't happened here, it's better to think about how to appease your subordinates now, there are a lot of external worries and internal troubles, you can't still count on your father on the hospital bed to deal with it, right?" ”

Nick hated her unkindness, but he had to admit her sanity, and tried to take two deep breaths, looking up at her: "I will take care of my housework, Dad's body will be handed over to you, if there is anything you need to help, just tell me." ”

"Does Yolanxing have a hospital or doctor?"

Nick shook his head: "There is already little land here, where is there any vacant land to open a hospital?" Some of the pirate groups hired private doctors, but those doctors only treated their own pirate group, and some or none of them. ”

Jian Ling was relieved, and then asked, "Is there any place to buy things nearby?" ”

"What are you going to buy?"

"Some medicines, as well as surgical equipment, since there is no hospital to borrow operating rooms and surgical instruments, you can only buy them yourself."

As soon as he heard that this had something to do with his father, Nick immediately became very positive: "There is no place around here that specializes in medical supplies, but there is a very big black market where everything is sold, and there may be something you want." ”

"Nacheng, you find someone to take me to see tomorrow."

Nick originally wanted to go with her in person, but the matter of the pirates had not been dealt with yet, and he couldn't separate himself for a while, so he had to hold back the concern in his heart and nodded in agreement.

That night, Jian Ling worked overtime until late at night, and just as she was staring intently at the computer screen and typing, the communicator suddenly rang. Taking it out and looking at it, she couldn't help but smile, put down the work in her hand, and chose to join the video call, and Xia's analog image appeared above the communicator.

"Honey, do you miss me?"

Jian Ling calmly threw two words at him: "No." ”

The cheeky Xia naturally wouldn't be knocked down because of these two words, so he immediately pouted with a smile and smacked at her: "I miss you for a day like three autumns, we haven't seen each other for three days, so let's count it, we've been separated for nine years."

Seeing him complaining emotionally about the loneliness, emptiness and coldness of "nine years of separation", Jian Ling listened silently, the expression in his eyes becoming softer and softer......
