"Second Master's vomiting of blood this time is not due to stomach problems. It should be said that the several times he has vomited blood in recent years were not due to stomach problems."
"What happened to him?" Su Mi felt as if her heart was in her throat.
The truth that she didn't want to face but had to face was coming towards her like a wild beast.
"Second Master has always suffered from migraines, you should know that."
Su Mi's breath froze: "Every time he is upset or has many things going on, he will have an attack."
"That's not an ordinary migraine," Gu Qingruo said every word in a professional and powerful voice:
"Second Master has had a tumor in his brain for many years.
"He occasionally vomits blood because of the pressure of the brain tumor, not because of any stomach problems."
"Four years ago, he vomited blood once in country M, which seems to be the time after you disappeared. Four years later, he vomited blood once before, and you should know it at the guild hall. And this time today...
…It’s all because of brain tumors. The reason for each attack is due to emotional stimulation or pressure from external forces. The first two times were caused by emotions, but this time, it should have been caused by falling on the ground.
will trigger."
Something was stuck in Su Mi's throat.
Han Fei sighed: "Four years ago, the second master vomited blood and was admitted to the hospital because his wife fell into the river and disappeared. At that time, he knew that he had a tumor in his brain. This time was a critical period for him. He wanted to stay at the Jin family in Country M.
He wants to take revenge, and he doesn’t want others to know about his physical condition. If the Jin family learns that he is in such bad health, they may not even hand over the inheritance rights and family property to him."
"So, the second master bribed the doctor at the time and told the Jin family newspaper that he was just vomiting blood caused by gastric ulcer, and concealed the disease from the outside world."
Su Mi didn't care about anything else but one thing: "Is his brain tumor serious? Can it be cured?"
Gu Qingruo's face was still devoid of any emotion, but her voice was a little more regretful:
"Four years ago, after Er Ye learned that he had a brain tumor, he secretly asked my teacher for diagnosis and treatment. My teacher is an internationally renowned brain surgery expert. At that time, the brain tumor was not big. If it was removed with surgery in time, it would be
There is more than 85% chance of recovery."
"But he gave up."
Su Mi trembled: "Why? Why didn't he do the surgery?"
Gu Qingruo said:
"Because that surgery has a 30% chance of causing postoperative amnesia in the patient."
"The second master said that he cannot lose his memory. My teacher advised him that even if he loses his memory, it would be better than losing his life if the brain tumor grows to an irreversible point in the future. But he still persisted and just refused to do it. He also said that even if it is only
Even if there is a 0.1% chance of amnesia, I won’t do it.”
Su Mi understood something.
Sure enough, Han Fei lowered his head and whispered:
"I have persuaded the second master many times to get the surgery done quickly, but the second master just refused to listen. Firstly, it was because he wanted to take revenge at that time and it should not have any impact. But the most important thing is..."
Having said this, he breathed out for a long time and looked directly at Su Mi:
"At that time, madam, you fell into the river and disappeared. He said that if he lost his memory after the operation, it might be harder to find you... Also..."
After a pause, his voice trembled:
"He doesn't want to forget you either."
Su Mi's mind suddenly moved, her fingers curled up, and her fingertips were deeply embedded in her palms, but she didn't feel the pain.
Did you give up the surgery just because you didn’t want to forget her?
Is this man crazy?
Gu Qingruo's tone became more and more regretful:
"At that time, the teacher saw that his brain tumor was very small and not life-threatening, so he said nothing. Unexpectedly, in the past four years, the brain tumor has continued to grow and has grown three or four times larger than before."
"Actually, under normal circumstances, tumors will not grow so fast. It is estimated that during the four years in country m, his emotions have been stimulated, worried and depressed all the time, which stimulated the crazy growth of tumors.
.Emotions have a huge impact on tumors.”
Su Mi's throat seemed to be blocked by something again. Gu Qingruo's voice floated in her ears, and it seemed unreal:
"After he vomited blood last time, he had an examination and found that the brain tumor had grown a lot bigger."
"A while ago, he went to Country M to take care of his father. Perhaps because he was too tired from working day and night, he had another attack. He fainted and didn't wake up for several days. His bodyguard contacted me and flew over to check him out."
Su Mi's face was trembling.
It turns out that Gu Qingruo flew to Country M to treat him.
Gu Qingruo continued:
"These days, he has been busy preparing for his wedding to you. Perhaps it was because he was too hard and too mentally excited. He had severe headaches several times, so he simply asked me to come to Tancheng to take care of his health."
"After I examined him, I found that the pressure on his nerves from his brain tumor was more obvious. I told him to stop working for the time being and to go to the hospital for examination and recuperation, but he refused to listen and hung up on me several times. Today.
Morning, I saw that the report he just came out was a bit
Question, at the urging of the teacher, I went to the dress store where you were trying on wedding dresses. I wanted to persuade him to go to the hospital to recuperate first. In desperation, I wanted to drag him back to the hospital. Unexpectedly, he still refused, shook me off and left.
Alas, something really happened..."
Su Mi's throat moved.
So that’s it…
Doctor Gu came to him just to remind him of his health and condition.
The pull outside the dress shop today was just a result of the doctor's paternalistic attitude. He was too worried about his patient's condition and wanted to persuade him to be hospitalized.
Gu Qingruo's voice was still lingering:
"If this trend continues, his condition will get worse and worse, and vomiting blood and various other symptoms will become more and more frequent. Sooner or later..."
Su Mi's hands were shaking violently: "Can I still do surgery now?"
Gu Qingruo shook his head: "When it was first discovered four years ago, it was the best time for surgery. At that time, the safety would be very high. Now, the brain tumor has grown larger and occupied important parts of the brainstem. Surgery at this time has a better survival rate.
It’s very low and the risk is too great.”
Su Mi's throat tightened: "What are the chances of success if the operation is performed now?"
Gu Qingruo said frankly: "No more than 1%."
Su Mi's face trembled, and she closed her eyes, with moisture oozing out of the corners of her eyes.
In other words, there is almost a 100% risk that he will die on the operating table.
A few tenths of a percent survival rate, this risk is too great...
She doesn't dare to take risks.
After a long time, she secretly grabbed the tiger's mouth and stopped her from losing her composure in front of outsiders:
"...If he doesn't have surgery, he can still..."
I really can't say the second half of it.
Gu Qingruo understood what she meant completely. She wanted to ask how long Huo Shenxiu could live without surgery.
She spoke with the straightforwardness unique to doctors, and at this time, there was no need to beat around the bush:
"Without surgery, we can only rely on conservative treatment with drugs and chemotherapy. But he refused chemotherapy, so he can only rely on drugs for now."
"How long he will live, I don't know. If the brain tumor stays on its own, stops growing wildly, and stops causing trouble, he may live to his seventies or eighties, longer than you and me. But if the brain tumor suddenly ruptures, he will be there anytime and anywhere.
Die."
Su Mi was frightened when she heard this. After a long time, she calmed down and said, "Thank you, Doctor Gu. Can I go in and see him now?"
Gu Qingruo nodded: "He has no problem for the time being."
Su Mi watched Gu Qingruo leave, looked at the door of the ward, took two steps, and didn't dare to go in.
