Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 148: Terminal illness

Views:

Another cold! This is the first time I have caught a cold since last winter. My resistance seems to have suddenly dropped since I stopped doing farm work. It seems that I am still working hard.

Sun Xiaofang couldn't bear to eat or wear clothes. The money she saved was used to buy medicine. She also felt helpless.

Seeing that it was not a serious illness, the roommates gave Sun Xiaofang a few words and left one after another. Wang Qingqing looked at Sun Xiaofang with concern: "How about I take a leave of absence for you and you go back and take a nap."

Sun Xiaofang still wanted to persist. The school doctor heard about their conversation and took the initiative to show Sun Xiaofang a sick leave note. Sun Xiaofang had to go back to rest. Wang Qingqing helped Sun Xiaofang ask for leave from class.

However, Sun Xiaofang took all the medicine prescribed by the school doctor, and her body did not feel any significant improvement. She fainted again during Monday's flag-raising ceremony.

The counselor sent her to the infirmary again, and the school doctor examined her. She had some impression of Sun Xiaofang. After a rough examination, she shook her head and said, "It's better to send her to a larger hospital for a detailed examination." Let’s check the blood or something.”

After all, it's just a medical office. It doesn't have that much advanced equipment. It's okay to give simple treatments, but there's still nothing we can do about serious cases.

Sun Xiaofang was awake at this time. When she heard that she was being sent to another hospital, she panicked and asked quickly: "Doctor, do I have some terminal disease?"

The school doctor said with a bluffing face: "Why do you think about useless things all day long? Why do you want to scare yourself? I just don't understand why your cold can't get better. Let's find out what caused the cold so that we can prescribe the right medicine. Don't think nonsense. ah."

I don’t know if the school doctor’s words comforted Sun Xiaofang, but her classmates still called for a taxi to take Sun Xiaofang to the city hospital.

Help with queuing and registering. When it was finally Sun Xiaofang's turn, she felt very uncomfortable. She even vaguely felt that it was definitely not as simple as a cold. She began to think about the day when the problem with her body started.

The doctor prescribed a check list, including blood test, urine test, and stool test, but she did not do it.

The results came out half an hour later, and the examination form was delivered to the doctor's desk. The doctor who treated her was a young male doctor who wore a pair of glasses and looked very elegant. He took a look at the blood test sheet and found that the platelets were significantly reduced. He glanced at Sun Xiaofang. She was not accompanied by her parents. There were two women of the same age beside her. They should be students? He took back what he wanted to say and asked gently: "Have you had breakfast?"

Sun Xiaofang agreed: "I ate a steamed bun."

"It's not done on an empty stomach. There may be deviations in the data. Let's do this. You can come back and do a blood test tomorrow morning. Remember not to eat breakfast." The doctor did not prescribe medicine to Sun Xiaofang.

Sun Xiaofang became increasingly uneasy: "Doctor, am I seriously ill?"

"Do you think you're seriously ill?"

"The school doctor said I had a cold, but the medicine she prescribed didn't seem to have much effect. I thought my health might be failing."

The abnormality in the data did not allow the doctor to draw a conclusion immediately, but the symptoms of the previous patient were indeed somewhat consistent. He thought for a while and then said: "What you need to do now is to cooperate with the treatment. The examination has not been completed yet. You You are still young, your foundation is there, and you will recover quickly. Don’t worry about anything. Eat when you need to, and sleep when you need to.”

After Sun Xiaofang went out, the doctor also came out and quietly stopped a classmate who came with Sun Xiaofang: "Can you leave me the phone number of your class teacher?"

Although the classmate was confused, he still told the doctor the number, and then asked uncertainly: "Doctor, Sun Xiaofang's illness is really serious, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense in front of her, go ahead." The doctor ordered.

The next day, Sun Xiaofang felt more comfortable, her fever symptoms were relieved, and all her strength was back. She didn't take the examination to heart and continued her study and life as usual. The classmates who accompanied her to the doctor were all worried about her: "Xiaofang, didn't the doctor tell you to go for another examination? Why didn't you go? "

Sun Xiaofang smiled and said: "I'm fine, nothing's wrong. You don't have to worry about me."

The girls who were asked by the doctor for the counselor's phone number that day looked at Sun Xiaofang like this and thought of the doctor's instructions. They thought that Sun Xiaofang's illness might have reached a point where they could no longer delay it. Their words didn't work, so they had to talk to the counselor again.

The counselor is a young female teacher. Although she is only a teaching assistant, she takes good care of the students in the class. Sun Xiaofang's family was poor and she was a bit slovenly, but she was a motivated, diligent and down-to-earth girl. She also admired her. After hearing what her classmate said, she couldn't help but frown and said, "If such a thing happens, I will personally go out and persuade her. Don't let a minor illness turn into a serious one. I'm free tomorrow morning, so let's go see her with her."

The counselor found Sun Xiaofang to discuss it afterwards, and the teacher came forward in person, so Sun Xiaofang had no choice but to look at her. Early the next morning, the counselor called the dormitory and told Sun Xiaofang not to eat breakfast.

The counselor took Sun Xiaofang to the city hospital on a lady's motorcycle, still finding the young male doctor from last time. The male doctor breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Sun Xiaofang coming. He asked her again if she had had breakfast. After confirming, he wrote a stack of examination orders.

You have to pay a fee before you can do the examination. Sun Xiaofang owed her classmates medical expenses last time, and she still couldn't come up with that much this time, so the counselor helped pay for it first.

While waiting for the results to come out, Sun Xiaofang was restless. The counselor went to buy her breakfast such as soy milk and fried dough sticks, and comforted her: "Don't worry, it will be fine."

When his name was called, the counselor went to help Sun Xiaofang get the order, and the two went to the doctor together.

The doctor took a look at a few key data, suppressed his inner emotions, and said very calmly: "It's not a big deal, I'll prescribe some medicine."

After saying that, he took the pen, took the prescription slip and started to write the name of the drug. Then the pen poked a few ink dots on the notebook before he wrote the next drug name with difficulty.

After the medicine was prescribed, the counselor took the initiative to help run errands and brought the medicine back to the doctor. The doctor told Sun Xiaofang how to take it.

After seeing the doctor, the counselor accompanied Sun Xiaofang out of the hospital. Sun Xiaofang's mood became obviously much cheerful. When she returned to school, she went to class and the counselor returned to the office. However, not long after she sat down, the phone next to her rang. She picked up the receiver and spoke.

Opposite is a young man.

"Excuse me, are you Sun Xiaofang's counselor? I am the doctor who just treated her."

The counselor immediately had a bad premonition: "I am, what can I do?"

"Sun Xiaofang's illness is somewhat serious. Please inform her parents to transfer her to a well-qualified hospital for treatment as soon as possible. There will be no further delay."

The counselor is only twenty-six years old this year. When she heard this, her heart jumped violently: "Notify the parents? What is her disease?"

"The preliminary diagnosis is leukemia."

When the counselor heard this, his heart was stabbed.
