Chapter 1 Terminal Illness

The weather in Qihai City today is exceptionally good.

The sky is blue and the sun is shining.

However, for Zhang Ming, it was still a terrible day.

Because of her father-in-law, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer.

And it's late.

The cancer cells have spread and are attached to the entire stomach, whether it is chemotherapy or surgery, it is no longer meaningful.

It is conservatively estimated that her father-in-law has one month to live at most.

Even if he dies suddenly the day after tomorrow, it is not impossible.

Although the hospital did not say it explicitly, the meaning was already clear, that is, to let them give up treatment and go home.

After all, if it continues to be treated, it will not only consume a lot of money, but also aggravate the pain of the elderly, as if the gains outweigh the losses.

Zhang Ming and her husband, as the management of a large company, can be said to be very good in terms of economic conditions, so the cost of treatment is not a problem for them.

What's more, her father-in-law also has medical insurance, and he can also reimburse most of it.

It's just that nothing in this world can be solved with money.

Money can't buy his father-in-law's health, let alone alleviate her extremely bad mood right now.

Although her husband was out of town on a business trip, they had already discussed it on the phone.

Since there is no hope for treatment, it will only make the elderly more miserable, and they can only listen to the advice of the hospital and go home to recuperate.

However, it is better to go home to recuperate, but to go home and wait for death.

But they have done their best, and in the past few days, she has taken her father-in-law around and almost visited several of the most famous cancer hospitals in China.

This is the last one.

It can be said that as long as there is a hospital and thinks it can be treated, she and her husband will not give up.

After all, no kind child will watch the old man be killed by the disease.

"The doctor said, how long do I have to live?"

Just when Zhang Ming was standing in front of the window of the ward, thinking about these things with a heavy heart, her father-in-law's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Dad, are you awake? Feeling better? ”

Seeing that her father-in-law was awake, Zhang Ming hurriedly put away the sadness on his face and walked quickly to the bedside.

For fear that her father-in-law would be affected by other patients, she also arranged for her father-in-law to be in a single room.

This is also the only thing she can do for her father-in-law at the moment.

"It's much better, but I just feel tired."

"It's okay Dad, don't worry, it's just that there is a little problem in the stomach, and it will be fine after a period of recovery."

Her father-in-law was originally a very fat person, but during this time, because he couldn't eat, he lost a lot of weight.

The cheeks are sunken, the cheekbones are protruding, and the eyes are lifeless, without the slightest look.

This also made Zhang Ming's heart feel uncomfortable for a while, and he endured it so that he didn't shed tears.

"You don't have to lie to me, I know how uncomfortable my stomach is.

You just listen to the hospital, and the hospital will treat it however it wants, and my old bones can still be tossed. ”

"Dad, we don't have to be hospitalized, I'll discharge you in the afternoon, and then take you home."

Hearing that Zhang Ming was going to discharge him, the old man's expression suddenly became gloomy, and then he said in a tone that made Zhang Ming a little flustered:

"Don't you want to save me anymore?"

"Dad, what are you talking about? How could we not save you.

Besides, if I don't care about you, can your son still ignore you?

Don't think about it.

You really don't have a big deal, the doctor said, you vomit blood and it's just a stomach ulcer.

When I go back, I'll make you some porridge to drink, and you'll recover slowly. ”

Zhang Ming didn't dare to tell her father-in-law the truth, otherwise it would be difficult to say that her father-in-law would not completely collapse.

Not to mention that her father-in-law has cancer, or any other serious illness, it must not be known to the patient.

After all, human emotions are closely related to the development of diseases, in fact, only a small part of the various diseases that human beings suffer from are caused by external influences, and most of them are caused by imbalances in the body.

Emotions occupy a large proportion of this.

This is also the reason why people who have been at a low emotional trough for a long time, or who have been in a state of emotional ups and downs for a long time, are prone to illness.

Even in the medical field, those examples of overcoming terminal illnesses and miraculous recoveries are mostly emotionally stable and determined.

As for those who are psychologically poor and emotionally unstable, they may still have hope of being cured after falling ill, but they eventually die early.

To put it bluntly, most of the people who die of the disease are actually scared to death.

It's like a person who jumps off a building, often dies of a heart attack in mid-air, and a person who is really killed by a fall.

So Zhang Ming didn't tell the truth to her father-in-law, not because he was pure deceit, but because he told a white lie.

It's just that she doesn't know how long this lie can last.

After all, her father-in-law is not a foolish person.

Seeing that her father-in-law didn't speak, Zhang Ming was afraid that her father-in-law would think too much, so he said again:

"Dad, if you don't believe it, I'll call Dr. Wang, and you can ask him again?"

Her father-in-law looked at her as if he hadn't heard, still looking at her with the kind of gaze that made her feel uncomfortable.

And in that gaze, she read something called abomination.

After Zhang Ming left the ward, he found Wang Jiandong, the attending physician who treated his father.

Wang Jiandong is a well-known figure in the field of oncology.

There are many cases that can be called miracles.

It can be said that most of the people who come to Qihai Cancer Hospital to see a doctor are coming in the name of Wang Jiandong.

"Professor Wang, is there really no hope for my father-in-law's situation?"

Wang Jiandong is different from some people who rely on his time to get the title of professor, he is not too old at this level, only in his early 40s, and he looks like a gentleman, but his expression is a little indifferent.

"His stomach is completely occupied by cancer cells, and if he wants to continue his life, it is not impossible that he will not have it at all.

However, the stomach needs to be completely removed, and then all the nutrients are provided by infusion.

With any luck, he could live between one month and two more. ”

When Wang Jiandong said this, he was still looking at the computer, as if he didn't care about the possible reaction of the patient's family.

"I see, can the professor help me talk to my father-in-law?

I want you to cooperate with me and make up a white lie for him. ”

After listening to Wang Jiandong's words, Zhang Ming had completely given up the idea of saving her father-in-law, but simply wanted to ask the other party to help her lie.

She thought that the other party should not refuse this kind of thing, but what she didn't expect was that the other party actually rejected her:

"Your father-in-law is in this situation, and there is no possibility of a miracle.

So there's no need to fill him with anything at all, just tell the truth.

This will also make him mentally prepared. ”

(I'm sorry to everyone in advance, and I'm going to go out tomorrow with a smile, and the new book doesn't have a regular upload function because it doesn't enter the VIP, so it may be interrupted tomorrow.) But I remember the chapter I owe, and I will pay it back.

Thank you all for your kindness. )
