Chapter 178: Discharge
"It's much better, you were already ventilated when you went back just now, and the doctor said that as long as you were ventilated, it would be fine."
She said with a smile, and the complexion on her face was a little better, and she looked a little ruddy.
"Do you want to go to the toilet now?"
For an operation like appendix cutting, as long as you have ventilation and bowel movements, there is basically no problem. And as usual, you should have a bowel movement today.
"It's a bit of urine!"
She said with some embarrassment. I think I should have had the urge to urinate just now, but Uncle Li was a little embarrassed.
"Okay, then you wait a minute, I'll take out the urinal."
I took the urinal out from under the bed and helped her pee. After peeing, I took the urinal to the toilet to wash it.
"Drink some water!"
I took a glass of warm water and handed it to her, and she took a few sips of my hand.
"Whew!"
After drinking the water, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she was also very thirsty.
I chatted with her for a while, and in the afternoon she had a bowel movement, and at dinner she could have some porridge. When the doctor came to visit the ward in the evening, he listened to us and examined the wound.
"There shouldn't be any big problems, pay attention to your diet these days, and your range of movements is smaller, and be careful not to strain the wound. Take care of it, and ring the bell if you have a problem! ”
The doctor said professionally and kindly in my expectant gaze.
"Thank you, doctor, we'll take care of it."
I smiled and thanked him, and escorted him out of the room.
At night, another patient was admitted to the ward, and when he was brought in, he was curled up on the bed, and his body was covered in cold sweat. The doctor gave her a blood test and then gave her an anesthetic, and after a while he was pushed out for surgery.
"It's scary, I hope she can come out smoothly."
Looking at her painful appearance, I couldn't help but sigh.
"That's right! Hopefully she'll go well. ”
Maybe she had just experienced it, but my mother felt a little empathy and prayed with her hands folded.
I chatted with my mom for a while, and then watched her fall asleep. I don't know how long it took, but I fell asleep on the bed, the door of the ward was opened, and the woman just now was pushed back, and at this time her anesthetic had not yet passed, and the person was still asleep.
She was carried to the outermost hospital bed to rest, while her daughter took care of her. I took a closer look at the mother and daughter, the mother was about 50 years old, a little fat, but she felt very festive, and she fell asleep with a pale face. Her daughter is about 25 years old, tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and she is a beautiful girl. She carefully tucked the horns, looked at the hanging drip, and then went out with the basin and kettle.
After a while, she returned, and when I entered the house, I happened to see that I was looking at her, and she smiled politely at me, and I responded to her in the same way. When she returned to her seat, she wiped her mother's face with the handkerchief she had wrung out of the basin. She rubbed it carefully, as if she were rubbing a rare treasure.
Her movements were so light that she barely made a sound, and I watched for a while and then fell asleep on the edge of the bed again.
Her mother woke up in the middle of the night, and she took care of her all night. The next morning I learned that her mother was also suffering from acute appendicitis, and I thought of my mother when she first arrived last night, and she must have been like her when she was brought in. Thinking of the pain she had gone through, I felt guilty again for my own mistakes, and I thought that I must care more about her in the future.
On the third day, the doctor came to remove the stitches, but it was recommended that we stay for a while longer. I complied with the doctor's advice and left my mom behind.
On the fifth day, my mom strongly asked to be discharged from the hospital and go home, but she just came to the hospital for an infusion. I asked the doctor for his opinion, and the doctor said that it was best to stay in the hospital for observation, but my mother insisted on going back.
"Mom, the doctors have said that it is best to stay for a full week."
I persuaded with all my heart.
"Oh, I know my own body, you see I can eat and move now, and the wound is almost healed, I really don't want to live in this hospital. Besides, isn't it just for the infusion that I'm living in the hospital now, and won't I just come over at a fixed time when the time comes? ”
As she spoke, she was about to start packing.
"Mom, the doctor must have a reason for saying this, let's listen to the doctor, and then insist on it, you don't see it for a few days, right?"
I quickly helped her sit down, moved a chair and sat opposite her.
"That's right, eldest sister, just listen to your daughter! You see your daughter is crying in a hurry! ”
The patient on the hospital bed next to her also began to persuade her, and her daughter saw that her mother had the strength to persuade people, and her face also smiled.
"Yes, Auntie, you see that your daughter is also for your good, so you can live in a down-to-earth manner!"
She helped her mother to sit up slightly, and then smiled and persuaded as well.
"What are you talking about, it's so lively!"
My mother was about to say something, and a hearty male voice came from outside the door, and when I heard this, I felt saved.
"Uncle Li, you quickly persuade my mother, the doctor said that she should be hospitalized for at least a week for observation, but my mother didn't listen to the persuasion, so she had to be discharged from the hospital now."
As soon as Uncle Li entered the ward, I begged for help.
"Really? What's going on? ”
He walked to the hospital bed, looked at my mother gently, and asked dotingly.
"It's nothing, it's just that I can't get used to living in the hospital."
Under his strong gaze, my mother lowered her head a little shyly and said unnaturally.
"Uh, Uncle Li, please persuade my mother first, I'll go out for lunch first!"
Seeing them like this, I found a reason to slip away, I had no choice but to look at Uncle Li's anyway. But from what I've just observed, convincing my mom should be fine.
When I returned to the ward after eating, neither of them spoke, and Uncle Li looked at my mother with affection, and my mother was lowering her head and not knowing what she was thinking.
"Let's eat!"
While setting the meal, I asked Uncle Li with my eyes, and Uncle Li gave me a "done" look, and then smiled proudly, it was actually a little cute.
Seeing that we were going to eat, Uncle Li left under the pretext of taking a step ahead. I didn't ask my mom about leaving, but she didn't take the initiative to mention that she was going to be discharged from the hospital.
After a week of staying, my mother couldn't help but be discharged from the hospital, and when I was discharged from the hospital, Uncle Li appeared again, helped us go through the formalities, and then helped us move our things. There seemed to be a subtle change between them, and my mom was not as calm as she used to be when facing him. But this didn't hinder Uncle Li, he cared for my mother even harder.
