Chapter 144: Cyanosis of the lips
The old man himself often choanosis his lips and oxygen saturation were always below 90 percent, and sometimes he was on the verge of 80 percent, but he was still very optimistic and often encouraged other patients.
Now I saw Aunt Huang's expression in pain, and when she saw that she was breathing messily, she knew that the problem was, not really difficult to breathe, but caused by illegal breathing, so she couldn't help but open her mouth to instruct.
Aunt Huang pointed to the oxygen mask and said, "Of course I know how to breathe, but I can't do it, it's too uncomfortable." ”
Dai Yunyang checked Aunt Huang's parameters, after she got on a non-invasive ventilator, her oxygen saturation could reach 97% of the normal range, her disease was improving, and she could be weaned intermittently, and her blood oxygen saturation would not drop significantly. She was the first of Dai Yunyang's critically ill patients to have any hope of recovery.
Now she is breathing incorrectly, causing difficulty breathing, and she does not breathe well with the non-invasive ventilator, so that she holds her breath. She must be instructed.
Dai Yunyang said: "Auntie, what this old man said is right, you must cooperate with breathing. In this way, I first adjust the airflow of the breath, and then you follow it to do the breathing movement, so that the human-machine confrontation will be a little lighter. I'll get used to the rhythm and I'll move you back to a higher position. If you want to get out of bed and go back to see your daughter, you have to learn to breathe with a non-invasive ventilator. It's a good friend who helps you live, and if you don't listen to your good friend's opinion, and it's not happy, then you're going to be very uncomfortable. ”
Dai Yunyang said as easily as possible, so that Aunt Huang's mood gradually relaxed.
The white-haired old man next to him ripped off the oxygen mask again and said, "Sister, I know what you're afraid of, you're afraid of death, right?" I'm afraid I won't see your daughter after I die, right?"
A sentence came to the bottom of Aunt Huang's heart, and while adjusting her breathing, she turned her head and said to the white-haired old man: "Who is not afraid of death, aren't you afraid?" When you die, you don't know anything. ”
"People die like lights going out, the natural law of birth, old age, sickness and death, who won't die, even Qin Shi Huang has to die, not to mention us mortals. Life is like this, enjoy it when you can't resist it, even if it's painful, you have to turn it into an experience, so that you can find that the pain is not that painful. ”
"You don't have a back ache when you just stand and talk."
As soon as she finished saying this, she felt that something was wrong, and when she saw that his ventilator parameters were far worse than her own, only 83%, she was about to fall into a coma.
Aunt Huang has been hospitalized these days and already knows what the various parameter tables on the instrument mean, this old man is now more seriously ill, he is much older than himself, and even almost twice as old, strictly speaking, he should be called grandpa. What's more, the other party is still kind to herself, so Aunt Huang hurriedly waved her hand again and said: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just in a hurry, I'm sick and old, I felt a little better before, but today my right chest hurts again, it's like blocking my throat with my hand, I can't breathe, I'm uncomfortable to death." ”
The white-haired old man said, "I'll tell you a trick, you have to divert your attention now, don't die or live." I know it's hard, but if you follow the tricks I say, you'll be able to do it. ”
Aunt Huang was very happy when she heard this, and said, "Uncle, what's the trick?" You tell me. ”
"Uncle? - Am I much older than you? I call you sister, can't you call me big brother?"
Aunt Huang tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "Okay, big brother, what can you do, I'm dying of discomfort, and my chest is very suffocating."
"Here's this thing for you!"
The old man struggled to take off a piece of jade pendant and handed it over, Dai Yuyang quickly took it and helped him pass it to Aunt Huang, he glanced at it, it was a Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Aunt Huang took it and looked at the white-haired old man suspiciously.
The white-haired old man said, "You put it around your neck and gave it to you." Let me tell you, this Guanyin Bodhisattva is not simple, this is the abbot of Putuo Mountain gave me, a treasure handed down from generation to generation. The abbot has been wearing this Guanyin Bodhisattva since he was a monk, and his cultivation has been fully focused on it. ”
"He gave it to me when he was about to die, and I was friends with him. Now I pass it on to you, it really has Buddha nature, when you feel that your mood is complicated, you close your eyes and silently recite to save 'Nan Wu Salvation Suffering and Salvation Guanyin Bodhisattva', and over and over again, Guanyin Bodhisattva will bless you and let you tide over the difficulties, because Guanyin Bodhisattva is specialized in saving suffering. ”
Aunt Huang didn't expect it to be such a trick, she was surprised and delighted, holding the Guanyin Bodhisattva and saying with some anxiety: "But big brother, you gave it to me, so what should you do?" ”
"As I said, birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws, and even a bodhisattva can't let you avoid the suffering of the six realms of reincarnation. Life and death have a destiny and wealth in the sky, sometimes there must be in life, and there is no time in life to force it, this sentence is not fatalism, it is actually true, at least I believe it. ”
Aunt Huang nodded again and again and said, "Actually, I also believe it, and I often go to the temple to offer incense." ”
"That's good, faith is spiritual. Since life and death are fateful, the old abbot who gave me this Guanyin Bodhisattva has passed away, he is a Taoist monk, and people outside the party are inevitably dead, not to mention us? So I'm in my nineties, and I'm almost on the road of life, you're still young, you're only in your fifties this year, right? ”
"Yes, fifty-six."
"You're still very young, and you're going to live forty years to my age. Let it accompany you through the next forty years, remember what I just taught you to read, you try it, it works, if it doesn't work, you come and scold me. ”
Hearing what the white-haired old man said so promisedly, Aunt Huang nodded happily and said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva can't be blessed, who can bless?" It must be spiritual, I will do what you say. ”
She closed her eyes, put the statue of Guanyin around her neck, held it against her chest, and began to breathe evenly. She exhaled and inhaled according to the rhythm of the ventilator according to what the nurse had taught her and the white-haired old man had reminded her just now, while silently reciting in her heart Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva.
She found that the magical power appeared, there were no more distracting thoughts in her head, she didn't have to think about life and death, she only had this sentence in her mind, her consciousness was concentrated, her body was relaxed, and her breathing was even.
This ventilator can adjust the rhythm of its exhalation and inhalation according to the patient's breathing, which is very intelligent. As long as the patient is breathing normally, they are able to follow the rhythm very quickly. Aunt Huang was just so scared that her breathing was messy, and she couldn't even follow her rhythm on a ventilator.
Dai Yunyang saw that Aunt Huang's breathing became steady, and she exhaled and inhaled with the rhythm of the ventilator, the man-machine confrontation disappeared, and the oxygen saturation began to return to normal again, so he was relieved. looked approvingly at the white-haired old man and said, "Uncle, you are so powerful, your Guanyin Bodhisattva statue is really effective." ”
The white-haired old man smiled when he saw that Aunt Huang had closed her eyes in the Namo Sutra, and beckoned to Dai Yunyang, who walked over and listened to him.
The white-haired old man leaned into his ear and said in a low voice: "Actually, that jade pendant is a fake I bought for five yuan at a thrift stall, carved from the scraps of jade, not from the hundred-year-old abbot of Putuo Mountain." She's just scared, you have to make her feel relieved, make up a story and she'll be happy. As for what life and death have fate, in fact, I don't believe in fatalism, my fate is up to me, I want to live, I don't want to die, I'm also very scared. So come on, young man, I have to cheer for myself, I want to live another ninety years. ”
Dai Yunyang smiled, this white-haired old man is really an old naughty boy, it is really rare to have such a mentality.
