After leaving the ward, Yu Qingya wiped away her tears, but Ye Dongping and Zhou Xiaotian cried like tears.
Especially Ye Dongping, he would rather his son make him angry by being naughty and mischievous like he did when he was a child, rather than see Ye Tian lying lifelessly on that bed.
"Dongping, I'm sorry for you. Xiaotian has reminded me, but...but I still went to the World Trade Center yesterday. It was me who hurt Xiaotian!"
Seeing her husband's arrival, Song Weilan, who had barely slept a wink all day and night, could no longer hold on. She leaned forward and fell into her husband's arms. Ye Dongping suddenly shouted for a doctor.
After being helped to the hospital bed and hooked up with nutritional needles, Song Weilan's pale face regained a little rosiness. Seeing her daughter-in-law and husband, her inner guilt and regret reached its peak.
Ye Dongping shook his head and said, "Weilan, let's not talk about this for now. How is Xiaotian's situation?"
"Xiaotian, Xiaotian..." Song Weilan's eyes suddenly turned red when her husband mentioned her son, and she glanced at Yu Qingya hesitantly.
"Mom, how is Ye Tian? Tell me, I can hold on!" Yu Qingya nodded firmly. In her heart, Ye Tian is omnipotent. As long as he still has breath, he will definitely recover.
come over.
"Song, your condition requires rest. Don't talk anymore!" Just when Song Weilan was about to speak, a middle-aged doctor in a white coat came over.
"Dr. Weiman, I'm fine."
Song Weilan shook her head and said: "They are all my relatives, Dr. Weiman, I want you to help me introduce Ye Tian's situation. I think... you have the most say."
After Song Weilan spoke a few words in English with the middle-aged doctor, she looked at her husband and others and said, "Dr. Weiman is the world's top brain surgeon. He is also Xiaotian's chief physician. Let him tell you.
"
"Oh well……"
Weiman nodded and said: "The patient's current situation is very troublesome. To put it simply, in addition to retaining some instinctive neural reflexes and the ability to metabolize matter and energy, his cognitive abilities have been completely lost and he has no active activities.
.”
"Dr. Weiman, please be more direct!"
Ye Dongping had lost his English a long time ago, and Zhou Xiaotian couldn't understand Weiman's words. Only Yu Qingya could understand them completely, and her face turned a little pale.
Weiman shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, the patient's current condition is vegetarian, which is what is called a vegetative state in medicine."
"Vegetative state? How is that possible?"
Yu Qingya bit her lip tightly with her teeth, and tears burst into her eyes. She could not believe that her husband, who had been married for less than a year, would turn into a vegetative state.
The so-called vegetative state means that the patient's cerebral cortex function is seriously damaged, and he is in an irreversible deep coma, losing conscious activities, but the subcortical center can maintain spontaneous breathing and heartbeat. This state is called "vegetative state", and patients in this state are called "vegetative state".
"vegetative".
The brainstem of a vegetative person is still functional. When delivering nutrients to the body, it can still be digested and absorbed, and can use this energy to maintain the body's metabolism. It can also produce some instinctive reflexes in response to external stimuli, such as coughing, sneezing, yawning, etc.
.
However, the vegetative body no longer has consciousness, perception, thinking and other advanced neural activities unique to humans. After becoming a vegetative state, it can only maintain this state by providing various nutrients at an expensive cost.
Of course, there is still a chance of being awakened from a vegetative state, but this chance is very low, and the cure rate is even far lower than that of cancer patients. Even modern technology is powerless against the most complex human brain.
"Madam, the patient suffered a large external blow before he fell into coma. Although his head was not directly injured, I am afraid that the concussion affected his brain tissue and nerves. We still need a few days of observation before we can do anything.
Come to the final conclusion!"
To be honest, Weiman was a little confused about the symptoms that happened to Ye Tian. Judging from their test results, the reaction of Ye Tian's limbs was exactly the same as that of a vegetative state.
However, vegetative people often suffer direct head injuries that lead to this disease.
But apart from some scratches on Ye Tian's neck, he didn't even lose a hair. They didn't know why Ye Tian's brain lost consciousness. At the moment, Ye Tian's illness can only be classified as a vegetative state.
Seeing Yu Qingya's sad look, Song Weilan held her daughter-in-law's hand and said: "Qingya, don't worry, I have invited well-known brain experts from various countries, and they will conduct consultations with Dr. Weiman. Ye Tian will definitely
Wake up!"
For ordinary families, being in a vegetative state means a bottomless pit of expensive medical expenses, but these problems do not exist for the Ye and Song families. Song Weilan's financial resources are enough to invite the best doctors on the planet.
"Mom, I also believe that Ye Tian will definitely wake up!" Yu Qingya nodded firmly. Although she and her husband were together less and less, Yu Qingya never lost her confidence in Ye Tian.
"Master, someone called the young master. He said he was some kind of senior brother of the young master. I don't know if I should tell them to come here?"
When Song Weilan was talking to Yu Qingya, Anna walked in with Ye Tian's mobile phone, which Song Weilan specially asked her to charge and turn on yesterday.
"Senior brother? It's Gou Lao and the others..."
After hearing Anna's words, Ye Dongping quickly said: "Quick, ask them where they are and invite them over immediately!"
Although Ye Dongping did not believe in Feng Shui physiognomy in his early years, he highly respected the medical skills of the veteran Li Shanyuan. In that era when there was a shortage of doctors and medicines, Li Shanyuan could often relieve the condition of any difficult disease with just a few injections.
Western medicine can't treat the son's condition at this time, but it doesn't mean that traditional Chinese medicine can't do anything. Especially since Gou Xinjia and Zuo Jiajun are in the same line as Ye Tian, there might be some way to wake up Ye Tian.
After hearing Ye Dongping's explanation, Song Weilan looked at Anna and said, "Anna, pick them up in person right away and bring them here as quickly as possible."
At this time, New York was already in a state of chaos. Not only were all the international airports in the United States closed, but even the streets were guarded by sentries. Anna drove herself to pick up people, and there was no telling how many censorships she would encounter.
After thinking for a moment, Song Weilan then said: "Go to Counselor Wang of the Chinese Embassy and ask him to go with you."
Song Weilan had doubts about Ye Tian's ability before, but after this incident, she finally understood what made her son different from ordinary people, so she was full of expectations for Ye Tian's senior brother.
"Ms. Song, this gentleman is looking for you, do you think?"
Anna had just left the ward when a doctor walked in with a white man in a suit with a helpless face.
"William, didn't I say that Ms. Song cannot be disturbed now!" Before Song Weilan could speak, Weiman said with an unhappy face. If possible, he even wanted to drive Ye Dongping and others out.
William smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said: "Wayman, he is the president's personal adviser, and he came here on behalf of the president!"
"Personal consultant?"
In Weiman's eyes, the president is not a big shot, at least his annual salary is much lower than him. He said dissatisfiedly: "Ms. Song is my patient, even the president can't come!"
"Doctor Weiman, it's okay." Song Weilan waved her hand, looked at the man and said, "I wonder what Mr. Bush wants to see me for?"
Song Weilan had known Bush Sr. in the 1980s and had a fairly good relationship with the Bush family. This person was Bush's personal adviser, so it was not appropriate to expel him from the ward.
"Ms. Song, my name is Kilfeather..."
The visitor introduced himself and said: "The President is deeply sorry for what happened yesterday. He asked me to express his condolences and apology to you. In addition, he wanted to ask for your opinion. Your son was rescued in this disaster."
A little girl was born and we wanted to do some publicity about it."
"Mr. Kilfeather, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Mr. Bush."
Song Weilan shook her head sadly and said: "My son is in a deep coma now and is very likely to become a vegetative state. I think he cannot cooperate with your publicity!"
"Oh, that's a pity, Ms. Song. If you need any help, I will convey it to Mr. President." After hearing Song Weilan's words, Kilfeather also showed a heavy expression on his face.
"No, please convey my gratitude to Mr. Bush for me." Not to mention the President of the United States, even the Secretary-General of the United Nations was here, and Song Weilan was in no mood to pay attention to it.
"Damn, damn America!"
After Kilfeather went out, Ye Dongping punched the wall of the ward hard. The first half of his life was rough and rough, but he had not lived a comfortable life for a few days when his son encountered such a thing again.
"Dongping, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have come back." Seeing her husband's painful expression, Song Weilan became increasingly regretful and annoyed.
"Weilan, I don't blame you, my son will definitely get better!" Ye Dongping wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and comforted his wife softly.
More than an hour later, Anna finally led a group of people to the private hospital.
In addition to Gou Xinjia and Zuo Jiajun, Nan Huaijin was also traveling with him. He came from Taiwan at the invitation of Gou Xinjia and arrived in New York at the same time as Gou Xinjia.
"Mr. Gou, it's all up to you this time!" Seeing Gou Xin's family walking into the ward, Ye Dongping hurriedly greeted him. When he was still several meters away, his knees weakened and he was about to kneel down.
"Absolutely not." Gou Xinjia held Ye Dongping up with one arm and said, "Junior brother is destined to have this calamity, but it is not hindered by his fate!"
