Coming out of the picu, Zheng Ren saw Lin Yuan standing guard outside, while Gu Xiaoran was comforting the mother of the sick child.
The rest of the family hasn't arrived yet, and the traffic jam in the Imperial Capital is no joke. In extreme cases, it is normal to be stuck in traffic for more than ten hours.
"After the test, the blood alcohol concentration exceeded the standard. The preliminary diagnosis was alcohol poisoning." Zheng Rendao: "There are also complications such as cerebral edema. Dialysis has been started. The specific effects will not be evaluated for a few hours."
After hearing Zheng Ren's words, the patient's mother burst into tears. Gu Xiaoran heard her cry and wiped her tears too.
Zheng Ren really wanted to glare at Gu Xiaoran fiercely. You, a man, cry from time to time. What's going on
After waiting for five minutes, the woman felt a little better. She sobbed worriedly and asked, "Doctor, is the child okay?"
"The condition is very serious. It is expected that the picu doctor will ask you to sign a critical illness notification form in a while."
Upon hearing this, the woman's tears welled up in her eyes again.
"If you're thinking about it, I'll have some snacks every now and then." Su Yun estimated that the patient would be fine, so he tried to change the subject as much as possible.
“…”
"How can you take off your clothes when you are burned? The skin will fall off piece by piece, and what can be saved cannot be saved. This is still the forearm. If it were the upper body, it would be heavier." Su Yundao said.
"The clothes are so hot, can I do it without taking them off..."
"Rinse with cold water first. Don't feel bad. It will take fifteen minutes. If you have the conditions and you are not afraid of the cold, soak in cold water for a while." Su Yundao said, "After everything is done, take off your clothes. Then cover the wound and go to the hospital immediately. .”
The patient's mother remained silent. She subconsciously tried to remember what Su Yun said, but she didn't know what the use of writing it down was.
But if she didn't do something in this situation, the negative emotions in her heart would probably explode.
"Dialysis has been started, which can filter out the alcohol absorbed by the child from the blood." Zheng Ren said, "The rest is symptomatic treatment."
After saying that, Zheng Ren looked at Gu Xiaoran and said, "Xiaoran, please stop crying with me."
Gu Xiaoran quickly wiped his tears and nodded vigorously.
"Take good care of your child and let me know how he reacts after dialysis via WeChat."
"Okay, okay, Boss Zheng." Gu Xiaoran nodded repeatedly.
After Zheng Ren finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Boss Zheng, is the child okay?" Lin Yuan followed behind and asked in a low voice.
She sent the child to the picu. Looking at the unconscious child, Lin Yuan felt a little uncomfortable.
"It's okay." Zheng Ren left the patient's family and began to use affirmative sentences when speaking, "He was sent early, and the cerebral edema is probably not serious. The alcohol has been filtered out through dialysis, and the liver function should recover quickly."
"Oh, that's good, that's good." Lin Yuan let out a long breath.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." Su Yun said, "I'm hungry."
"Go and take a look at the little stone." Zheng Ren said.
"He's pretty good. The little nurses in the ICU like him." Su Yun smiled and said, "If Little Shitou can grow up, he will definitely be much more popular than you."
Zheng Ren smiled. He had no objection to this metaphor. Little Shitou is cute and well-behaved, and he will definitely be more popular with girls than himself.
But is it really possible to survive until you grow up? Zheng Ren sighed softly in his heart.
"Boss Zheng, Xiao Shitou's surgery... do you think his disease can be cured?" Lin Yuan knew it was impossible, but he still couldn't help but want to ask.
"No." Zheng Ren said with certainty an answer that Lin Yuan had known for a long time but refused to accept.
"If cancer can be cured, the next Nobel Prize will definitely belong to the boss." Su Yundao said, "Change your question to a nutritious one."
"Uh..." Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"Are you asking why you have to suffer the pain of treatment if it can't be cured?" Su Yun was like a roundworm, knowing clearly what Lin Yuan was thinking.
Lin Yuan nodded.
"If you were like this, there would be no need to open all hospitals." Su Yun said, "Will anyone be immortal? The purpose of medical treatment is to extend human lifespan, not to create the myth of immortality. All life is suffering, and it is not just illness. distressed."
What he said... seemed to make sense, but Lin Yuan felt that there was something wrong with Su Yun's strong words.
"Don't listen to Su Yun." Zheng Ren said, "Xiao Shitou's illness is very serious, and if he wants to be cured... the chance is slim."
Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, what was Boss Zheng talking about? Slim chance, not no chance!
"Boss Zheng, did I hear you correctly?" Lin Yuan asked subconsciously.
"No." Zheng Ren said seriously: "Humanity's research on diseases has progressed with the advancement of science and technology. Many diseases that were previously considered terminal illnesses have been overcome step by step. Xiao Shitou's medical skills are good, and I We are going to start a topic, are you interested?"
"Project?" Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"Boss, have you seen it? This is the kind of thing that makes you stupid when you read a book." Su Yun said: "If you ask her about the types of cancer and the pathological causes, she can tell you clearly and clearly."
Lin Yuan was still thinking about what Boss Zheng said about the slim chance. He didn't notice the deeper meaning hidden under Su Yun's "sarcastic" words. There were exclamation marks in his mind.
"Xiao Linzi, please go back. Let's go home for dinner." Su Yun saw that Lin Yuan was deep in thought about Chang Kao. Knowing that her mind would not turn around for a while, Su Yun raised his hand and waved twice.
Although they had to go back to the department to change clothes, Su Yun and Zheng Ren strode away.
Although Lin Yuan is tall and has long legs, it is a bit troublesome to chase Boss Zheng and Brother Yun, as he has to run away at a trot. This time she had something on her mind. When she saw Su Yun waving, she subconsciously raised her hand.
Boss Zheng actually said that there was little hope. Lin Yuan carefully recalled Xiao Shitou's films and condition. She could not find any reason to convince herself that her condition would get better.
Everything is palliative care, no matter how much effort Boss Zheng puts in it.
Lin Yuan thought hard, and inadvertently extended his fingers to his mouth again, trying to bite his fingernails.
But the moment she put her finger to the corner of her mouth, she woke up and quickly put her hand down.
It's getting late, it's better to go home quickly, Lin Yuan thought to himself. As for Xiao Shitou's illness... Boss Zheng can treat it if he wants. He is the big boss and he is just a temporary member.
Lin Yuan still didn't understand what happened just now.
She returned to the ward to change clothes and drove her small Polo home. Along the way, she kept thinking about Boss Zheng's words in her mind - hope is slim.
If someone else had said this, even if it was her mentor at Harvard, Lin Yuan wouldn't care, let alone take it seriously.
But it was Boss Zheng who said this!
Unknowingly, Zheng Ren had left a deep mark on Lin Yuan's heart.
