Chapter 2: The Promise of the Afterlife (2)
In a panic, I dropped my phone several times, and the screen was torn apart. I'm already anxious, where can I care about its good or bad? If it weren't for the convenience of contact, I wouldn't have rushed out the door with my broken phone.
Because of the panic of my steps, I fell again and again; Because of the debris in my hands, I hurt again and again. Even if the crumbs were embedded in the palm of my hand, I didn't feel any pain.
When I arrived at the emergency department, the room was already full of people, all of whom were my mother's friends, and they were all worried.
I didn't see my dad and didn't bother to ask, but ran into the emergency room.
The moment I saw my mother, I was stupid.
She was lying on a hospital bed with an oxygen tube in her nose and tubes of various colors on her body. One end of the oxygen tube is connected to a monitor, and it is ringing non-stop.
The monitor that is only used by critically ill patients is closely connected to my mother's body, and this picture makes my heart tremble.
Walking to my mother's bed, I called anxiously: "Mom, Mom......"
No matter how much I called, my mother didn't respond, and she didn't even move her eyelids. Just as he was about to continue calling, the doctor next to him spoke. "Don't shout, the patient has a cerebral hemorrhage of 85 milliliters, and she has been injected with a cardiac injection, and she has to be operated on immediately."
"What!"
When I learned the reason why my mother was in a coma, I was shocked, but fortunately, Aunt Yang helped me.
"Wenwen, don't be too anxious, take care of your body."
Aunt Yang held me with one hand and wiped the tears from her face with the other. Aunt Yang is a good friend of her mother, three years older than her mother.
"Why did my mom suddenly have a cerebral hemorrhage? Didn't you have lunch together? ”
Gragging Aunt Yang's arm, I asked tremblingly.
"Don't mention it......"
Aunt Yang had red circles in her eyes and talked about what happened.
"It's the weekend, and a few of us are talking to your mom. Your mother is a warm-hearted person, very hospitable, and has a great time with everyone. ”
Aunt Yang took a deep breath when she said this, and then said, "Your mother cooked it herself for lunch, and wrapped the leek egg dumplings." When eating dumplings, she said that you came back from a business trip, and we discussed going to see you together. ”
"Yes, when you talk to me, my mother, ......"
At this moment, I choked up and couldn't speak to myself, and tears flowed out like the floodgates.
"Lao Tian, have you completed the formalities?"
Hearing Uncle Zhang's name "Lao Tian", I knew that my father was coming. He has high blood pressure, and his mother is so sick that he can't stand it.
Looking at my father, who is much older, my heart is like a knife.
"Patient's family, come and sign."
Just then, a young doctor approached. Hearing his words, my dad and I glanced at each other and quickly walked into the doctor's office.
Dad signed with trembling hands, and the moment Mom was pushed into the operating room, I cried and shouted: "Mom, you must come on, I'll wait for you!" ”
Outside the operating room, my husband Zhang Yang and I, as well as relatives and friends, were all in a heavy mood.
Two hours later, the door to the operating room opened, and my heart almost jumped out of my mind, and I rushed to the doctor in desperation.
Looking at me anxious, the attending doctor thought for a while and said, "The operation is done, but the situation is not optimistic. The patient is bleeding heavily, and you have to be mentally prepared. ”
Because of the craniotomy, my mother's hair was shaved, wrapped in thick gauze, and a ventilator was placed next to her.
In the intensive care unit, I looked at my mother who was unconscious, and I felt like I was in a different world.
Mom has always done what she says, but whatever she promises, no matter how troublesome it is, it must be done, and she will never live up to the trust of others.
Once, my mother's friend Aunt Sun who was far away from home called and asked her mother to help her buy some wedding supplies and mail them over, saying that she was preparing a dowry for her daughter who was about to get married.
Friends help each other, and it's understandable, Mom readily agreed.
Because I bought wedding supplies, my mother chose them very carefully, and she ran back and forth for several days, and her legs were swollen before she bought all the things.
Aunt Sun was very moved when she learned about this and insisted on coming to see her mother, but her mother refused. She said that she didn't delay things, and there was no need to be polite between them.
Mom keeps her promises to her friends so much, how could she lie to me? Came to see me, why did you suddenly have a cerebral hemorrhage? I don't believe it, I don't believe it!
"Mom, are you angry? Because I didn't teach you how to use WeChat, you used this way to deceive me and scare me? I ......"
Speaking of which, I hurriedly took out the picture from my coat pocket and cautiously touched it in front of my mother.
"Mom, this is the 'WeChat usage map' I drawn, and it is clearly marked for you with different colored pens. Last time, it was me who was wrong, I shouldn't have been impatient to teach you, I was wrong, don't be angry, okay? Mom, I admit it's wrong, why haven't you woken up yet? Open your eyes, please! ”
"Wenwen, mom just had surgery ......"
Zhang Yang was talking, only to hear the sound of "tom", I cried and fell to the ground.
This situation frightened him so much that he didn't dare to say more. His trembling hand fell on me, making my already miserable situation even worse.
Sad, Dad, I'm just as worried.
"Where's Dad? How is he? ”
As long as I think of my father's illness and the way my father took medicine, I can't sit still.
Although Dad's expression has not changed much, he has taken blood pressure medication three times, and his hands are shaking.
I know that my dad is worried about my mom, he just doesn't want to reveal it in front of me, he is afraid that my tense nerves will not be able to bear it.
"Zhang Yang, you send your dad back first, he has been standing, he can't stand it."
Of course I can't stand it, the longer Dad is here, the more painful it becomes.
No way, who let this person who is full of tubes and can only breathe through a ventilator be his wife for 35 years?
My hoarse voice made Zhang Yang worry, and he looked at me hesitantly, not knowing whether to leave or stay. Seeing his embarrassment, I said softly, "Don't worry, I can hold it." ”
"I'll come to the hospital as soon as I'm settled."
"Good ......"
I especially wanted to say a complete sentence, but the sadness made me unable to speak, Zhang Yang looked at me and sighed, turned around and walked out of the ward.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, I carefully touched my mother's hand and remembered the doctor's words.
"When we operated on the patient, we found that she had a lot of intracranial bleeding. Usually in this case, even if the patient is rescued, it will be in a vegetative state. In the current situation, you'd better be prepared. ”
Get ready? What to prepare!
It was pitch black outside the window, and I felt a sense of discouragement.
Until now, I thought everything that happened was just an illusion. Even if it is dazzling white to the eye, even if it is into the nose, it is choking and fierce......
"Mom, since you can't speak, then I'll talk to you. The doctor said that you might hear what I said, and if you can hear it, it means that you are still conscious, and you will be fine immediately. If you don't say anything, you're acquiescing, right? ”
As he spoke, tears rolled down again, wetting the ground.
