Chapter 26 How Long to Live?
Chang Qiupai clapped his hands and stopped their quarrel, saying, "There are a few things we may need to make clear. First, the surgery is voluntary, and we must be willing to do it before we can have the surgery. Second, your husband is in a bad condition now. If the intestinal obstruction cannot be resolved, his condition will continue to worsen. Whether he can survive until next month will be a problem, and it will be very painful. Third, just as colon cancer removal surgery is simple, the cost will not be too high. Lastly, we will not generate income by adding unnecessary treatment. This basic medical ethics..."
As soon as he said this, two old men hurried in outside the house.
They are the parents of overseas Chinese. They went back to bed last night and rushed over in the morning. When they heard the doctor's words later, they immediately understood that their daughter-in-law was asking for trouble for the doctor again.
The mother-in-law was very angry and pointed at her daughter-in-law and said, "You are deliberately killing my son, right? Don't you just feel sorry for the money? I said that we old couple will pay for all the medical expenses. If you don't use your penny, what are you talking about?"
The daughter-in-law said with a stern face: "Mom, you and dad are both old and need money to support you. And after you die in the future, your money will be used to send you off. The rest is also your grandson's money. What kind of pension will be used to send you off after spending all of it? Do we pay for money? Besides, you should also leave the money for your grandson instead of filling in the bottomless pit of the hospital."
The overseas Chinese father was so angry that his whole body shivered, and he said, "Our money is our money, not grandson's money. If you say that, I will spend all the money on my son. You raise your son yourself, and we have no obligation to raise it. We spend the money on our son, willingly, and we are reluctant to spend it on your son. I don't want to say such ugly words, you forced me."
The mother-in-law also said, "That's all. If you still make trouble, you can divorce my son. We will treat our son by ourselves!"
After taking out this killer weapon, the woman turned her head aside and stopped talking angrily.
Chang Qiu said, "Okay, we're starting the rounds. Dr. Wei, tell me about the patient's condition."
Wei Jun said: "According to what the patient said, he has always been healthy before, without any serious illness, and has never had surgery. After getting sick, his body dropped ten kilograms, his body temperature was normal, his pulse and breathing were normal. He had poor nutrition, and no abnormalities were found in the heart and lungs."
"That's good."
As he said that, he swept the pile of doctors around him, his eyes fell on Kang Hong's face, and said, "Doctor Kang, you are a yard doctor, do you have anything to say?"
If Kang Hong didn't say much before he got the system, he wouldn't say anything. But now he has perfect insight and perfect colon cancer surgery skills. With these two points, his medical skills in this area are now unique, far exceeding everyone present.
He nodded and said, "I want to do a lower abdomen for the patient to understand the situation, is it okay?"
Wei Jun was a little impatient and said, "The surgery is coming soon, what else can I do? Isn't it clear if my stomach is cut open?"
Chang Qiu said, "It is still necessary to monitor the diagnosis. You can reduce blindness by understanding the situation before the operation. Doctor Kang, you can conduct the diagnosis if you think it is necessary."
Kang Hong nodded, stepped forward and lifted the quilt, and gently pressed the patient's left middle and upper abdomen with his hands.
Then, he picked up the patient's film and looked at it, turned his head and said to the overseas Chinese parents: "The patient is not as bad as he imagined, and there is room for recovery. You don't have to be too pessimistic, there will be good news."
The overseas Chinese parents were surprised and happy, looked at each other and said, "Doctor, do you think my son is still saved?"
"Well, his illness is not as serious as expected. If the surgery is done well, your son's life will be more than three months, which will be much longer than this time."
"Really? You didn't lie to us, were you?"
The overseas Chinese wife curled her lips and looked at Kang Hong: "You are coaxing us so that we can spend more money, right?"
Wei Jun was also very angry and said, "Xiaokang, who told you that the patient survived the surgery for more than three months? Do you know that this irresponsible and casual promise is very irresponsible?"
Kang Hong said calmly: "I checked and found that there were no signs of extensive metastasis in other parts of the abdominal cavity. If there was no extensive metastasis, once the radical surgery is performed and the recovery is good, living for more than two years will definitely not be a problem."
"You? You just touched it with your hands twice, and it said that the tumor has not metastasized. What's the point? Who do you think you are? Hua Tuo is reborn?"
Gu Xiujie stopped doing it and pointed at Wei Jun and shouted: "Doctor Wei, be careful when speaking! What is your attitude? This is just Xiaokang's own judgment. You will know whether it is accurate after the caesarean section. Maybe he is right. Don't look too ugly at that time."
When Wei Jun heard Gu Xiujie get angry, he immediately became depressed and said embarrassedly: "I also hope I am wrong, but it is always not good to give the patient a hopeless hope, right?"
Chang Qiu waved his hand: "Okay, continue to check the rounds."
As he said that, he went out directly.
Other doctors also rushed out.
Kang Hong was stopped by the patient's parents and looked at him with ecstasy: "My son's cancer has really not metastasized? Can he really live for more than two years instead of three months?"
Kang Hong was very sure that perfect insight would not make jokes or make mistakes. Based on the diagnosis that had already formed in his mind, he said now: "It's okay, two years are just conservative estimates, and it is very likely to survive for more than five or even twenty or thirty years. Moreover, the cost of surgery is not as expensive as you think."
The old couple was very excited, holding Kang Hong's hand and shook it constantly, saying, "That's great, doctor, if you really want to do this, we will treat him even if we sell the pot!"
"I said, the handling fee is not that expensive, so there is no need to mess with the pot."
As he said that, he waved his hand and quickly followed him out and went to check the rounds.
The Chinese lying on the bed was trembling with excitement, worried that his ears would be wrong. He said to his parents: "Dad, this doctor said I can live for at least five years?"
The overseas Chinese father nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that the hospital statistics that as long as you survive for more than five years after tumor surgery, the best result will be. And Dr. Kang said that you are likely to live for twenty or thirty years. You are almost fifty years old. Wouldn't it be seventy or eighty years old in twenty or thirty years? It's the same life span as a normal person."
"Doctor Kang said that he had been more than 20 or 30 years." The overseas Chinese mother corrected her husband's words happily, "I heard it very clearly."
The overseas Chinese cried with joy: "It's great... I really can't bear to leave this world, my son, and you parents..."
