"Wenwen, how can you do it without resting? I rented a companion bed, you go to lie down, I guard my mother. ”

I don't know when, Zhang Yang came back, looking at me who was haggard, he said distressedly.

"I'm not going anywhere, I'm here with my mother. If the first person Mom saw when she woke up was me, she would be happy. ”

I said word by word, and I couldn't help but laugh when my mother was happy, laughed and laughed, and cried again.

At this moment, a nurse with a hanging bottle walked in, she looked at me and asked, "Is this patient Xiang Fangyun?" ”

"Yes, it's her."

My voice was soft, without a hint of life. This is the sixth hanging bottle, I answered six times, and my mother was also in a coma for twelve hours.

Twelve hours, half a day, half a day is really longer than half a century.

"It's been three hours since the last suction, and we're going to give the patient a third suction."

Just then, two more young nurses walked in.

One of them held a thin disposable sterile sputum suction tube in his hand, and one of them walked to the bedside and held his mother's head with his hand.

"Sputum suction? Can you suck it later this time? ”

Hearing the nurse say that I was going to suck my mother's phlegm again, I shivered and asked in a pleading tone.

Before my mother was admitted to the hospital with a cerebral hemorrhage, I never knew what "sputum suction" was, and I still saw this medical term by accident.

"The endotracheal intubation and oropharyngeal ventilation suctioning of critically ill patients are because the patient is unable to discharge sputum spontaneously in a coma, in order to ensure that the critically ill patient keeps the respiratory tract open in the coma, so as to facilitate the removal of respiratory tract foreign bodies and secretions without blocking the larynx and causing other pathologies."

This professional definition is all I know about "suctioning".

However, when I witnessed the nurse sucking phlegm on my mother, my whole heart trembled.

It is simply a cruel punishment for human beings.

Punishment? How can derogatory words be compared to saving lives? And add "cruelty".

If I hadn't witnessed the nurse sucking my mother's phlegm, I would have been ashamed of my inappropriate words.

After all, this operation is used to save lives, it can suck out the secretions of the respiratory tract, and prevent the patient from having serious consequences such as asphyxiating shock due to the blockage of the throat due to poor breathing.

Anything that is responsible for it will be extremely painful, so my mother burst into tears and convulsed violently. At this moment, I wish I was blind.

In that case, I wouldn't be able to see my mother's pain, and I wouldn't remember that she was a patient in a severe coma. It's a pity that I saw everything, and I still keep these images in the depths of my memory, unforgettable.

Because, I know her too well!

She is a strong, optimistic, positive person, and she is very calm when she encounters problems, no matter what happens, no matter how big or small, she is calm. For example, one year, my dad and I didn't know which way to offend the immortals, anyway, we were unlucky to be sick and hospitalized at the same time.

Wife and daughter, old and young, if these things are put on others, even if they don't collapse, they will be sad, but my mother is different.

She took good care of our father and daughter, and chatted with us with a smile, and she didn't even have red circles under her eyes, let alone tears.

The eye circles are not red and the tears are not flowing, which does not mean that her mother is hard-hearted, but it shows that she is rational in trouble. She knows in her heart that the more sick her loved ones are, the more important she must be to keep herself optimistic.

Only when she smiles warmly, talks happily, and is happily busy, can Dad and I have a good mood, and we can recover as soon as possible.

Half a month later, my father and I were discharged from the hospital, and the moment we walked into the house, my mother's long-held tears welled up in her eyes.

In the end, she forced back the tears.

Obviously anxious, obviously sad and uncomfortable, but still able to do not panic, this not only requires fearless courage, but also has a strong heart.

It's such an extraordinary old lady, but she is tortured by "intubation and sputum suction" again and again, and in the case of a severe coma, what kind of pain should this be?!

For me, watching my mother endure the heart-wrenching pain but being helpless is the most cruel human tragedy.
