Chapter two hundred and twentieth: fate's trick
When Wei Lai and Dabin came back in the evening, they had already wiped out the depression during the day and became excited. Obviously, they had forgotten the fight with the little fat man during the day. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Poor little fat man!
I saw Wei Lai tied a small braid on his head, and several braids tied into a larger braid, which looked like a work of art. I just looked at it and felt that this was really a huge project. If it weren't for me, I might not have completed this project in one day.
Wei Lai also seemed extremely excited because of the small braid on this end. He swayed in front of me and kept asking me: "Dad is good-looking?"
After I gave a very affirmative answer, she shook her head and went to play by herself with satisfaction.
From Dabin, he learned that he brought Wei Lai to the bar where he worked. According to what he said before, the bar was opened by a young woman. From Dabin's description of me with a fascination after he first met the bar owner's wife, Dabin simply regarded her as a god.
Although I have never met the bar owner, from his exaggerated description, I think this woman must be extremely beautiful.
From Dabin's description, I learned that this woman loves traveling and doesn't spend most of the year in the bar. She will only come back and take a few days off after a trip, and then go to the next place again!
The boss’s wife happened to be in the bar these days, and Wei Lai’s braid was made by this legendary woman.
Dabin strongly invited me to go to the bar to see the boss lady in the evening. In his words, "Let you see what a real beauty is!"
But since my life has changed, my body and mood have changed a lot. I really don’t want to get involved in the bar, which I used to be happy with, so I politely rejected his proposal. Dabin shook his head with regret and said that this was my biggest loss.
I smiled bitterly without objection, but another woman's face appeared in my mind, and suddenly my heart was unprepared for a sting...
More than two years have passed by the sound of my hammers. Although life is hard, it is the state I have always wanted, not to be alarmed or disturbed, and peaceful and quiet!
Although the business of the silversmith shop is dull, it always comes very early in winter here. There are fewer travelers as soon as autumn begins. Most of the year is leisurely. But life is worry-free and there is even a small surplus. Last month, I had already transferred 100,000 yuan from Xiangdong into the card number I asked him for when I borrowed money.
I thought this kind of life would continue, I thought I would quietly raise Wei Lai in this place. When she grows old enough, let her fly and let her enjoy this wonderful world freely.
I will guard this nest for her here so that she will have a warm home when she comes back at any time!
I think I will live my life in this place, and I will find a suitable time to tell Wei Lai that after I passed away, I would buried me next to Cang Yongcuo, because I think there is no other place in this world that is more beautiful than here!
When I thought that time had nothing to do with me anymore and I would grow old peacefully and calmly as I imagined, the next thing that happened almost hit me and entered the Abyssinian hell again...
Wei Lai is sick!
I found that something was wrong with Wei Lai when she was two years old and eight months old. She would always fall for no reason. She obviously had very flat feet and had no obstacles at all. She had already walked quite steadily before, and she rarely fell again.
My intuition told me that this was a bit abnormal, so I took Wei Lai to the county hospital to perform a comprehensive examination for Wei Lai, but the results of the examination were normal.
I unwillingly explained to the doctor in detail the abnormal fall of Wei Lai. After hearing this, the doctor told me that this was probably the cause of calcium deficiency. Calcium deficiency in children will lead to poor bones, and falling is the most obvious clinical manifestation.
So the doctor prescribed some drugs for this aspect for me. However, after taking the drugs for nearly a month, Wei Lai's symptoms not only did not improve but fell more frequently.
Seeing this scene, I had a vague premonition in my heart. This is probably not as simple as calcium deficiency. I dare not delay any longer. After packing my luggage, I handed over the store to Dabin and took Wei Lai to the provincial capital!
The result was soon revealed. The CT scan showed that there was a clear shadow of the size of a fingernail two inches upwards of Wei Lai's coccyx. The doctor inferred that a tumor grew there. Because it was just on the central nervous system, Wei Lai's intermittent dissatisfaction with the nerves in his legs.
I heard it like a thunderbolt. I didn’t expect that my daughter was only two years old and actually had a tumor in the nerve department!
After I asked the doctor how to treat it, I almost got paralyzed in the doctor's office!
The doctor gave two treatment plans, one was surgical removal, but the risk of doing so was quite high. Since the tumor grew on the nerves, it was difficult to ensure that the nerves were not damaged. If the nerves were damaged, Wei Lai would never be able to walk!
The second solution is to carry out chemotherapy and use drugs to prevent the growth rate of the tumor, so that Wei Laiyi can extend the duration of action. However, doing so only delays the growth rate of the tumor, and ultimately he still cannot escape the fate of paralysis. Moreover, this treatment method is undoubtedly a life-and-death test for patients. Each chemotherapy will bring irreparable physiological damage to the person!
I listened to the doctor's two treatment plans and handed over the decision to me. I almost felt the sky above my head collapse instantly. None of these two plans were what I wanted!
My God, what did I do wrong? What did my poor Wei Lai do wrong? Why did I punish us with such cruel means?
I almost collapsed in the doctor's office. What should I do? Should I take the risk of Wei Lai's surgery? Or should I get her to undergo chemotherapy that is worse than death to prolong her walking time?
I feel sorry for Wei Laicai, who is less than three years old. Can she bear the pain caused by repeated chemotherapy? As Wei Lai's father, what should I do when facing this choice that makes me feel extremely heartbroken?
However, the doctor has already advised that no matter how you choose, you must make a decision as soon as possible, because the tumor is growing up all the time, and delaying for one more day will increase the risk...
That night in a small hotel next to the hospital, I looked at Wei Lai's cute little face and felt sad, and for a moment I felt like crying without tears!
Wei Lai raised his face in my arms and asked me: "Dad, do I have some serious illness? Why do you cry?"
I wiped my tears,
Holding back on his emotions, Wei said: "Wei Lai, you just had a very small disease, you just had a small sarcoma on your back. As long as we remove it, Wei Lai will get better!"
Wei Lai looked at me with her clear big eyes and asked me softly: "Dad, will it hurt?"
My nose felt sore, and tears almost fell out again. I pretended to smile and said to Wei: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all. Wei Lai only needs to sleep for a while, and the sarcoma was removed after waking up!"
Wei Lai smiled at me after hearing this, saying, "Dad, I'm not afraid of pain. As long as I can get better, I'm not afraid of anything. Dad, don't be sad. Wei Lai is very strong!"
When I heard Wei Lai's words, I could no longer help but the tears in my eyes flowed out!
The well-behaved Wei Lai stretched out her little hand to help me wipe my tears, and my heart was almost broken!
My Wei Lai, she is only over two years old, and she is so sensible that she comforts me! My Wei Lai, no matter how much the father pays, Dad will cure you. Dad must let you grow up happily like a normal child! Dad is the only one left of you, Dad also needs you to support Dad to live in his old age and see him off. Dad must not let you lose the ability to walk!
My poor child, even if he exchanges his father's life for your health, his father is willing to...
Wei Lai fell asleep in my arms, but I was always sitting by the bed.
I thought my life could be spent quietly from now on, and I thought I could be lucky enough to watch my Wei Lai grow up. After so many setbacks and hardships, I have only the only cherished Wei Lai left. I thought that as long as I pulled her up, it would be worth it no matter what the price I paid!
Unexpectedly, God made such a big joke for me, trying to take away all the efforts I worked hard and snatch the only thing I care about, God, why are you so cruel? Why do you have to bear such a fatal blow again and again? I just want to live simply in this world, I have never asked for more, why is even such a small wish that makes things difficult for me?
The next day, I hugged Wei Lai to the hospital again and told the doctor that I had made a decision. This was a decision I had never closed my eyes overnight!
I want to choose to undergo surgery for Wei Lai!
Although the doctor has clearly told me that according to statistics from the country in recent years, the success rate of this kind of surgery is 35%, I still resolutely decided to perform surgery on Wei Lai. I want to take a gamble. I can't sit still and see Wei Lai as a companion in the future. Since Wei Lai cannot escape the fate of paralysis, I would rather bet. Although the success rate is less than half, the chance of success may be even lower for Wei Lai, who is only over two years old, I still resolutely choose to gamble with my destiny.
Wei Lai is so cute, I don’t believe that fate will treat her so ruthlessly. She is only less than three years old. Her life has just begun. Can the creatures in the dark really deprive her of the right to walk in this world so cruelly?
I can't believe it! I can't believe it either, so I want to use my choice and Wei Lai's strength to prove to this nihilistic all things. Facing the teasing of fate and the trap of fate, we are not afraid!
