Chapter 1976: U: Beyond the Great Event (65)
After the dull sound of metal clashing, the door behind Schiller slammed shut, and what appeared to him was pitch black, and there was no light in the room, so he could see nothing.
The ethereal and eerie female voice of the ragdoll sounded again.
"There is no equality in the world, and the profession of doctor has always been more aware of this, and some people choose to strive for equality, and some people choose to make them more unequal."
"How much money you can do is your rule, and people pay high fees for your high level of skill and have high expectations, but are you really meeting those expectations?"
"Haven't you already tested my professionalism?"
"Is it like that every time?"
With a "pop", the light in the room turned on, but it was a spotlight that cast a distinct circular spot on the floor.
Within the bright reach was an operating table, on which lay a pale-faced little boy who looked to be only five or six years old.
He looked alive from his countenance, but he couldn't hear any pulse or heartbeat, and his chest didn't heave, as if his time had stood still.
"He's five years old, he's having congenital heart disease, he got sick just three minutes ago, and he's getting to the point where he has to have surgery."
An X-ray fell from the roof, and Schiller picked it up, glancing at the light above his head, and it only took this one glance for him to see that the heart was familiar to him.
Typical tricuspid atresia symptoms with pulmonary atresia, Schiller's last surgery as a surgeon.
It's just that at that time, the child on the operating table was just over the moon, and the boy was already five years old.
To be honest, this can be called a miracle of life, the vast majority of patients with severe tricuspid valve closure if they do not undergo surgery in time, the mortality rate is very high, and the vast majority will die due to organ failure caused by systemic ischemia, let alone five years old, not many people live past one year.
Most of these surgeries require multi-stage surgery, and the sooner the better, although the child is too young and the organs are relatively small, the operation is more difficult, but the survival rate is also higher.
However, if the child is too old, there will be another extremely difficult situation, that is, the child's organs have begun to fail, and the vital signs are simply not enough to support the end of the operation.
Young children are more likely to die in the recovery period, but children at this age are more likely to die on the operating table because years of deteriorating conditions have brought their bodies to the brink of collapse.
This was clearly the case with this boy, and Schiller had no doubt that, because of perennial ischemia, his organs were probably only 50% of those of his peers, and not even half functional.
This situation is still alive, and if it weren't for the fact that this rag doll created a person, it would indeed be a miracle.
As the saying goes, surgeons are not afraid of complicated conditions, but only afraid of low physical signs, in addition to the low survival rate leading to greater psychological pressure on doctors, intraoperative death is a big blow to medical staff.
Especially the kind of surgery that is not complicated, but it requires repeated first aid and continuous maintenance of physical signs, and everyone can't save it despite all their efforts, so they can only watch the patient die, saying that the blow is light, and it is easy to leave a psychological shadow on people.
If it is the first time to enter the operating room, it will be uncomfortable to go back for at least a month, and I dream of why I can't be saved.
Of course, patients who survive the operation but die after the operation due to complications or other reasons, although the doctor will feel sorry, after all, they will not be so powerless because they did not face death directly.
The moment he saw the film, Schiller knew what the rag doll meant.
Sick once revealed to the priest at the Nehlet estate that he had operated on a child, which had been successful, but that the child had died from other causes.
And this time the child didn't need any other reason, just saving his life on the operating table was already extremely difficult.
There is no machine in this room except for a device to monitor the heart rate, there is no emergency condition at all, and the vital signs can only be judged by the doctor's experience, let alone the hygienic conditions.
Let's put it this way, if the operation is performed in this case, it is almost equivalent to holding a stone tool to repair the Gundam, not to mention a tricuspid valve closure patient, and a doctor with acute appendicitis will have to weigh it.
Schiller was about to speak, when a television hidden in the dark corner of the room lit up, and a man's face appeared on the television, and Schiller looked at it and saw that it was Thomas Wayne.
But if you look closely, this Thomas Wayne is a little different from the one Schiller has seen, this Thomas is very young, he may not look more than 30 years old, although he is a little tired, but his appearance has no sense of vicissitudes at all.
As if thinking of something, Schiller looked down and saw that the bones of the little boy lying on the hospital bed did have a bit of Bruce Wayne's shadow, but because he was really skinny and skinny, and his age was too young, Schiller didn't recognize it for a while.
Even if Schiller walks up and takes a closer look now, he can see a shadow or two of Ruth Wayne, after all, the state of this little boy is a little different from that of a mummy, and it is still a little too difficult to distinguish the appearance of a dried corpse.
"Doctor, doctor! Can you see me? I'm Thomas Wayne, the head of the Wayne family, and they said you can save him, please, doctor, please save little Bruce!! ”
At this time, a woman rushed into the picture, and when Schiller saw it, it was Martha, but at this time the young Martha was crying and her makeup was spent, and she patted Thomas on the arm while saying, "You shouldn't have listened to that group of people!" You're sending little Bruce to hell! ”
"We have no other way, Martha!" Thomas said angrily: "We have the best doctors in the world, but they can't do anything, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up." ”
"You've said that doctors all over the world can't do anything, does this mysterious doctor have a way?! Give me back my child, I'd rather him leave in silence! ”
When the husband and wife quarreled, Schiller was recalling which universe Batman had a heart attack, thinking that he really thought of one.
In the future Batman, Batman seems to have retired because of heart disease and old age, but his heart disease should not be so serious, otherwise how could he live to old age?
Wait, this may be a world without Batman, because Batman was born with a serious congenital heart disease and died in his infancy, so the later series of Batman stories did not happen, and the protagonist of the story is someone else.
This is also possible, after all, there are many comics under DC, and some comics that do not mention the existence of Batman may also have Bruce Wayne as a person, but because he is not the protagonist, he never appears, and it may be dead.
Schiller was thinking about all this when Thomas's voice came over the TV: "Doctor, please, I am willing to pay any price as long as I can save my son......"
Schiller's eyes lit up with a "pout".
At this time, the Wayne family should not be the richest in the world, but they must be quite rich, and what would happen to a world that should not have had Batman with Batman, Schiller finds it interesting just thinking about it.
So Schiller stepped forward to check the state of little Bruce, in fact, there is nothing to see, because now his time is frozen, and looking at the current situation, he can't be unfrozen at will, from the outside, it can only be seen that the condition is extremely poor.
"Have you had surgery?" Schiller asked.
Thomas seemed startled by the voice that appeared out of nowhere, but soon he said, "No therapeutic surgery, but biopsy." ”
Schiller frowned deeply, with the conditions of the Wayne family, he would not miss the best period of surgery, and he had already undergone an open biopsy, but he had not performed surgery, what kind of situation could stump the world's excellent surgeons?
Judging from the film alone, if Bruce's condition has not deteriorated to the point it is now, although the operation is difficult, it is not impossible to do, there must be brave men under the so-called heavy reward, and the world's excellent surgeons can't come up with a plan?
Then there must have been something wrong with the biopsy, Schiller thought, and the doctors must have seen something in Bruce's heart that they couldn't do anything about it.
If none of the world's best surgeons dared to do it, Schiller didn't think that calling the sick would solve the problem, and he did have surgical experience, but it was far from the level of Strange's fantasy of the Hand of God.
Even if Strange really comes, seeing the situation in this operating room, he must turn around and leave, which can no longer be said to be incapable of operating conditions, and if you dare to operate here, Thanos will have to give you a thumbs up.
But it's still the same sentence, Schiller wants money and doesn't want to die, there is no money in this world that he doesn't dare to earn.
He cleared his throat and said, "I can save him, but I need sacrifices." ”
Thomas's eyes widened and he said, "Aren't you a doctor?" Isn't it going to be operated on him? ”
"Do you think this place looks like you can do surgery?"
Thomas seems to be able to see the scene in the room through a screen, as the saying goes, a long illness makes a doctor, Bruce Jr. has been sick for so long, he has seen a lot of hospitals, large and small, and the dark room where Schiller is really does not look like an operating room.
"I'm a pope, don't ask which sect it is, I can save him anyway, but you have to offer sacrifices."
"What sacrifice do you want?"
"Your whole possessions."
Thomas looked at the screen in shock, and then he said, "But, but even if I want to, how are you going to take it?" ”
"You just nod, I have my own way."
Thomas hugged Martha, who was in tears beside him, and said, "If you were God, my answer would be 'yes,' and we would give everything to save our son." ”
"As long as you can save little Bruce, we are willing to give all our property, you can take whatever you can, we just want our children! As long as you can keep him alive! Martha said with a cry.
Schiller rolled up his sleeves and said, "That's going to be easy." ”
