Chapter 38 Expert Team Huo Ting'en was concentrating on processing documents in the office when he heard the sound of the door and said formulaically: "Please come in!"
I saw Liu Xin leading a foreigner in. This foreign friend had blond hair, blue eyes, fair skin, a mustache, and a suit and leather shoes. At first glance, he looked like a medieval gentleman. Huo Tingen immediately put down his hand when he saw it was him. After reading the document, he stood up, stretched out his hand and said to the foreign man: "a." (Mr. Brown, welcome to China) "Haha, Mr. Huo, I can speak Chinese!" Mr. Brown said
"Really? Mr. Brown can also speak Chinese. It's so disrespectful! Can we communicate in Chinese?" Huo Ting'en asked politely
"Of course!" said Mr. Brown
"Then let me tell you straight. I have a friend who has been lying in bed for five years. He has been in a vegetative state for five years. I know that you are an authority on this matter. I wonder if my friend still has a chance to be cured?" Huo Ting'en straightforwardly explained the reason for coming to him.
"You said your friend was in a vegetative state?" Mr. Brown asked
"Yeah" Huo Ting'en said
"Vegetative being is a special human state similar to the living state of plants. In addition to retaining some instinctive nerve reflexes and the ability to metabolize matter and energy, cognitive abilities, including the ability to recognize one's own existence, have been completely lost, without any Active activity is also called a vegetative state. The brainstem of an irreversibly comatose vegetative person still has functions. When delivering nutrients to the body, it can also digest and absorb, and can use this energy to maintain the body's metabolism, including breathing, heartbeat, blood pressure, etc. to the outside world. Stimulation can also produce some instinctive reflexes, such as coughing, sneezing, yawning, etc. However, the body has no consciousness, perception, thinking and other high-level neural activities unique to humans. The EEG shows a stray waveform. All conscious activities of the person have been lost. If you lose your life, you can only rely on the care and attention of your family to maintain your life!" Mr. Brown said very professionally
"Mr. Brown, I checked what you said on the Internet. I just want to know if he has been in a vegetative state for five years. Will he still have a chance to wake up?" Huo Ting'en was very anxious.
"Well, Mr. Huo, I can't answer you. Some patients wake up a day or two or a month or two after being diagnosed as vegetative. Some patients wake up after lying in bed for more than ten years, but some patients don't. I didn't wake up until they passed away! I can't answer you this kind of question!" Mr. Brown is very professional and will not exaggerate when he is unsure.
"Mr. Brown, I don't mind if you use the most expensive medicine, the best equipment, and the most advanced methods. I just want him to wake up. As long as I can make him wake up, I will pay for all the medical expenses." Here, I will give you a few additional medical devices you need for your hospital," Huo Tingen said sincerely.
Mr. Brown is a "vegetative" expert at a well-known hospital in the United States. This hospital is a government hospital under the jurisdiction of the U.S. government. It is very strong in terms of funding and qualifications. There is no need for Huo Tingen to donate, but Mr. Brown donates it in his own name. An "AIDS Children's Hospital" was built in South Africa. This hospital specializes in taking in orphans who have no money to treat AIDS. Because the drugs to treat AIDS are very expensive, there is a shortage of drugs and equipment to treat AIDS.
"Mr. Huo, this is not a question of whether you are willing to donate. I haven't seen the patient yet, and I haven't learned the patient's condition yet. I can't reply now. This is not objective and does not conform to my principle of scientific verification," Mr. Brown explained
explain
"The patient is, I will take you to see him now!" Huo Ting'en said and hurried to the hospital with Mr. Brown.
Arriving at Gu Kaijie's ward, Mr. Brown looked at the patient and suddenly said: "It's him!"
"Mr. Brown has seen him?" Huo Ting'en was also puzzled. Mr. Brown has lived in the United States for many years, how could he have seen Qijie?
"He's my patient!" said Mr. Brown
"Patient, has Mr. Brown treated him?" Huo Ting'en was even more confused.
"Well, five years ago, I treated him. I tried all the methods available at the time, but it had no effect on him. I knew he still had a weak consciousness. So, I tried my best at the time and just wanted to treat him.
He was cured, but for some reason, the person who entrusted me to China to treat him suddenly gave up the treatment! He made me feel very sorry that I could not help him wake up," Mr. Brown said regretfully
"Someone entrusted you to come to China to treat him five years ago. Who was the entruster?" Huo Ting'en asked in disbelief, was it Lin Yao? Impossible, she didn't have that much ability, nor that much face.
who is it?
"I don't know either. I only received a letter from this mysterious client, saying that there is a boy in his twenties who has become a vegetative state. He hopes that I can help him wake up. He will bear all the expenses."
But after treating him for almost a year, no, to be precise, it should be 7 months, I tried all the most advanced methods at the time, but could not make him wake up. Later, the mysterious client asked me to
I returned to the United States and said that this patient does not need my treatment anymore. Maybe the patient’s family members have given up." Mr. Brown looked at Gu Kaijie and told what happened five years ago.
"So Mr. Brown, are there any newer treatments now? Compared with five years ago, medicine should be much more advanced?" Huo Tinggen no longer thinks about the mysterious man, he only thinks about Gu Kaijie
"The most recent one is to install a 'human brain pacemaker'. The cure rate of this treatment is 30%, which is the most effective treatment method at present. However, as far as my personal opinion is concerned, I suggest that traditional Chinese and Western medicine
Treat at the same time because the human brain pacemaker only increases the excitement points in our brains and increases the stimulation and blood supply of nerve cells and nerve fibers. Therefore, after its implantation, it needs to continue a rehabilitation treatment period of 3 months to 2 years.
It is not possible to restore normal functions immediately after implantation, but it will also take a long time to recover. At this time, combined with acupuncture, massage, and conditioning of traditional Chinese medicine, recovery should be faster," Mr. Brown said.
explain
"Then, where can I find experts in traditional Chinese medicine in this field?" Huo Ting'en asked.
"Professor Fu from the vegetative department of Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine is an expert in this field. We met last time when we held a seminar. I had a good chat with him. Otherwise, I will contact him for you and see if he can draw it out.
Time will tell. In fact, I am very much looking forward to cooperating with him. This is my first attempt to cooperate with traditional Chinese and Western medicine. If it succeeds this time, it will benefit more patients." Mr. Brown said, picking up his phone and dialing a number.
Telephone
After the phone call, Mr. Brown said excitedly: "Professor Fu said that he was very interested. He declined other things. When he gets here the day after tomorrow, I will pick him up."
"I'll go too! If we can get consultation from two authoritative experts, there will be hope for Kaijie's disease." Huo Ting'en was really happy.
Two days later, Professor Fu showed up at the airport as scheduled. He had blond white hair and looked particularly dazzling in the crowd. He was wearing a light gray Mao suit and a black-rimmed spectacle frame. He looked like a patriotic figure from the Republic of China period.
As soon as Mr. Brown, the aspirant, saw him, he greeted him cordially: "Professor Fu, I haven't seen you for a few months, okay!"
"Okay! Mr. Brown, your Chinese is getting better and better," Professor Fu said with a smile.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Huo who invited me to China. Mr. Huo, this is Professor Fu Qiufu." Mr. Brown introduced each other to them in a friendly manner.
"Hello, Professor Fu, thank you very much for putting aside other things to consult with my friend. I am very grateful!" Huo Ting'en said gratefully.
"Are you Huo Ting'en, the young talent of 'Huo Yun'?" Fu Qiu said
"Professor knows me?" Huo Ting'en said
"'Huo Yun' is the largest logistics company in China. It has been going global for so many years. It is the pride of our people. Everyone in the country should know about it. Also, you have a lot of news. I often listen to it.
My daughter tells you the news! Boy, take care of yourself!" Fu Qiu said jokingly
"Haha, senior is laughing, get in the car!" Huo Ting'en still respects the old and loves the young.
Fu Qiu was also an impatient person. He didn't bother to eat when he thought about Brown's combination of Chinese and Western. He hurried to the hospital and saw Gu Kaijie taking his pulse first and then said: "The patient is well taken care of and everything is normal."
"In the past five years, the two women who have taken care of him have been so exhausted that they have become useless," Huo Ting'en said distressedly.
"Are you his family member? You care about him so much" Fu Qiu asked
"I am his sworn brother and considered a relative," Huo Ting'en said.
"What about his family? Why didn't they come? How can it be okay if his family is colder than his sworn brothers?" Fu Qiu added.
"Oh, no, I haven't told his family yet. I want to wait until you two have a specific plan before telling them. They have been disappointed too many times. This time, I don't want to let them down again," Huo Ting'en said seriously.
"I didn't expect you to be quite attentive. Brown, let's start with Mr. Huo asking you to contact the director of the hospital. Let's do the necessary examinations together and then formulate a treatment plan!" Fu Qiu said!
"Professor Fu, you just arrived and haven't eaten yet?" said Brown on the side.
"Oh, I forget as soon as I do something, so let's finish eating first. Anyway, he has been lying down for five years and doesn't care about this moment anymore," Fu Qiu said
"Okay, I've already arranged the food, Mr. Brown, let's try our Chinese food today," Huo Ting'en said as he walked.
"Don't worry, he is a fan of China. As long as it has something to do with the word "China", he likes it!" Fu Qiu said with a smile.
"Professor Fu is right, I am a fan of China, so I can speak China so well!" Brown also started to boast.
The dinner ended with laughter. After the dinner, the two experts led the hospital staff to perform various examinations on Gu Kaijie.
Huo Ting'en was waiting anxiously. How he wished that Gu Kaijie could wake up. How he wished that he could see the heroic figure of the Taekwondo champion five years ago.
Standing next to Gu Kaijie, holding his hand and saying to him: "Kaijie, now I have invited the most authoritative experts to treat you. You must also work hard to wake up and defeat the disease with the momentum that you used to beat the others."
!Open your eyes, look at your mother, look at Ayao, look at me!"
