Ma Yan rarely had a day off, so she took her mother Wang Sufang to the city's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital for treatment.
Over the years, Wang Sufang's health has been poor and she keeps coughing. She went to the Railway Hospital. The doctor said it was emphysema and prescribed some medicine.
Wang Sufang took the medicine for a long time, but her illness never recovered. She even became weaker and weaker. She was unable to complete her work, so she had no choice but to let Ma Yan take over.
As a daughter, Ma Yan naturally saw it in her eyes and was anxious in her heart. Yesterday, Wang just mentioned her grandfather's medical skills and she immediately became interested.
In fact, Ma Yan inquired with her colleagues and confirmed that Wang Gang's grandfather Liu Chongjing was really a lung disease expert, so she brought her mother to see a doctor.
It's just that Wang Sufang was worried about money, so she regretted it when she got to the hospital door and went home in a fuss.
"Yan'er, let's go back! I just need to take some medicine for my illness."
"Mom, you've been taking medicine for a year, and you haven't recovered from your illness at all." Ma Yan said with a straight face: "I would say that the doctor you saw before was a quack."
Ma Yanqiang dragged her mother into the hospital, registered her name and ran straight to Liu Chongjing's clinic.
There were already many patients queuing up outside the clinic. Ma Yan found an empty seat and asked Wang Sufang to sit down first. Then she chatted with the patients next door and realized that these people were here because of their reputation.
The more she got to know Ma Yan, the more confident she became in Grandpa Wang Gang's medical skills.
After queuing for almost an hour, it was finally Wang Sufang's turn, and Ma Yan helped her mother walk into the clinic.
"Dr. Liu, my mother has been suffering from emphysema for almost a year. She is not getting better no matter how much medicine she takes. Could you please give her a look?" Ma Yan said to Liu Chongjing very politely.
"Which hospital did I see you in before? Are there any cases?" Liu Chongjing did not check Wang Sufang's pulse first, but looked at her face.
"Here, here is the case." Ma Yan quickly took out the case from her bag.
Liu Chongjing looked at the case carefully, and his face became darker as he looked at it, which shocked Ma Yan and Wang Sufang.
They all say that they are not afraid of doctors joking, but they are afraid that doctors will not speak. The more serious Liu Chongjing is, the more nervous Ma Yan and Wang Sufang become.
A little aware of Wang Sufang's nervousness, Liu Chongjing said calmly: "Don't be nervous, I'll take your pulse."
Wang Sufang looked better and stretched out her right hand.
Liu Chongjing put his finger on Wang Sufang's veins and said nothing for a long time.
Ma Yan said nervously: "Doctor Liu, is there nothing serious about my mother? I heard from Wang Gang that you are an expert in treating lung diseases."
Liu Chongjing raised his head in surprise and said, "Are you Xiaogang's friend?"
"Yes, it was Wang Gang who introduced us to you for medical treatment," Ma Yan said.
Liu Chongjing sighed and said: "Since you are Xiaogang's friend, I will tell you something directly. Your mother's disease is not emphysema."
"Ah!" Ma Yan exclaimed, "What disease does my mother have?"
Liu Chongjing said with a straight face: "Comrade Wang's disease should be lung cancer, but I'm not sure. I need further examination."
"What is lung cancer?" Ma Yan is only a sixteen-year-old girl after all, and she doesn't understand what lung cancer represents.
?“Don’t be nervous, it’s not necessarily lung cancer. Further examination is needed.”??
Liu Chongjing called a nurse and asked her to accompany Wang Sufang for a check-up, and then informed Ma Yan about lung cancer.
When she learned that her mother was suffering from an incurable disease, Ma Yan burst into tears.
"Doctor Liu, please save my mother!" Ma Yan immediately knelt down to Liu Chongjing.
"You get up first." Liu Chongjing lifted Ma Yan up and said, "Don't despair. Fortunately, your mother's disease was discovered early. There is still a chance for treatment, but surgery is needed.
We can't do this kind of surgery here, so you have to take her to Beijing."
"Ah, I want to go to Beijing!" Ma Yan was completely confused.
Liu Chongjing saw Ma Yan, a little girl, bringing her mother to see a doctor alone, and asked, "Are there any adults in your family? Where is your father?"
Ma Yan lowered her head and said in a deep voice: "There are no adults anymore, my family is just me and my mother."
"This!" Liu Chongjing said, "It is not easy to cure your mother's disease. It requires long-term treatment. It will be a big test for your financial conditions and your family. You must be mentally prepared."
Ma Yan was very confused and confused.
When Wang Sufang came back from the examination and saw her daughter's state of mind, she knew it.
"Doctor, please tell me the truth about what disease I have!" Wang Sufang asked Liu Chongjing.
Liu Chongjing glanced at Ma Yan and felt that she was a child who could not understand this, so he told Wang Sufang the truth about her condition.
Wang Sufang heard that she had an incurable disease and needed to go to Beijing for treatment. She didn't recover for a long time. Liu Chongjing gave them time to digest.
After a long while, Wang Sufang asked: "Doctor Liu, if my disease is not cured, how long can I live?"
When Ma Yan heard this, she trembled all over and said excitedly: "Mom, how can you not treat the disease? We have to treat it."
Wang Sufang pulled Ma Yan into her arms and couldn't help but shed tears, but she still firmly asked Liu Chongjing: "Doctor Liu, our family's conditions are not good. It is impossible to go to Beijing to see a doctor. If we just take medicine, can we
How long do you live?"
As a doctor, Liu Chongjing has seen many such situations in the hospital and understands Wang Sufang's decision very well.
?In fact, when most people get serious illnesses now, they will choose conservative treatment so that they can live one day at a time and do not want to put a burden on their families.
"Everyone's physique is different. If you just take medicine and receive conservative treatment, it can last up to five years or as short as one year. It is important to maintain an optimistic attitude, and willpower is even more important."
Ma Yan cried louder, but Wang Sufang remained calm.
"Doctor Liu, please give me some medicine to take home!"
Liu Chongjing sighed, took out paper and pen, and wrote a prescription for Wang Sufang.
"Put this prescription away. Drink two doses every day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Take the medicine after meals. You will come here for follow-up visits every month. I will adjust the prescription at any time according to your condition."
"Thank you, doctor." Wang Sufang collected the prescription and took her daughter to the pharmacy to get some medicine.
"Mom, let's go to Beijing and see it again!" Ma Yan begged Wang Sufang.
"No, it's not practical to go to Beijing to see a doctor." Wang Sufang touched her daughter's head distressedly and said:
"Mom has accepted her fate. There are only two things that she can't worry about. The first is your father's unjust case. I may not live to see the day when his injustice is vindicated.
?The second thing is that I’m worried that I won’t be able to survive until the day you get married.”
Ma Yan burst into tears and said sadly: "Mom, don't say that, you will definitely get better!"
Wang Sufang held back her tears, her lips trembled, and said: "Yan'er, don't worry, I won't die if I don't see you get married."
Ma Yan hugged Wang Sufang and burst into tears.
After the mother and daughter returned home, they did not recover for a long time. When the sun went down, Wang Sufang, perhaps tired, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Ma Yan looked at her mother's sleeping face and felt very sad. She left the house unknowingly and came to the railway compound.
She actually wanted to find Wang Xin, but when she reached the compound, she remembered that Wang Xin was still in class at the police academy, so she was at a loss.
Wang just happened to come home from get off work. When he saw Ma Yan, who was in a state of despair, he came over and said hello.
"Ma Yan, what's wrong with you?"
When Ma Yan saw Wang Gang, her eyes turned red and she said sadly: "Brother Wang, my mother has lung cancer, what should I do?!"
Wang Gang was stunned, and Ma Yan could not help but throw herself into Wang Gang's arms and cry.
Feeling Ma Yan's helplessness, Wang Gang thought for a while and did not dare to hug her to comfort her. He deliberately opened his arms to stay away from Ma Yan.
Ma Yan was just too sad and lost her composure. She soon realized something was wrong and jumped out of Wang Gang's arms, but it was still a step too late.
"Xiao Gang, who is this little girl?" Liu Shufen rode her bicycle and stopped next to Wang Gang, staring at Ma Yan with a serious look on her face.
