"During the B-ultrasound, we found something was wrong with the pregnant woman's body, so we did another CT scan on her." The doctor pointed directly at Shen Ke's CT scan and showed it to Xi Xiangdong, "Here, there is a shadow, which means there is a mass in the brain. "Whether it is a tumor, whether it is benign or malignant, we need to continue to observe."
Xi Xiangdong frowned deeply. He had known about this a long time ago, so he did not doubt the doctor's words.
"What does that have to do with her pregnancy?"
"Generally, we do not recommend that patients with brain tumors have children. Because hormonal stimulation will worsen the tumor, especially the shadow in your wife's brain is too sensitive. It is in the most densely populated area of nerves, and it has already affected normal function. life, right?”
Xi Xiangdong's hand on the table trembled slightly. He couldn't help but tighten it and answered: "Yes, she sometimes suffers from intermittent blindness and headaches."
The doctor said: "The current technology in our hospital cannot perform cranial surgery on her. Looking at the entire country, I am afraid that no doctor would dare to do it, because if you are not careful, the patient may become a vegetative state."
On the one hand, he is always in fear while carrying a bomb on his back, and on the other hand, he becomes a vegetative state and can no longer smile or talk to him. No matter which choice he makes, it is heart-wrenching pain for him.
He finally understood that there is a theory of retribution in this world.
Shen Ke's pain today is felt by himself personally. It is the punishment that God concealed from him in the past.
He lowered his head and was silent for a long time. When he raised his head again, there were tears in his eyes: "I will persuade her... to take away the child..."
When he said this, his teeth were trembling.
The doctor comforted him with a few words: "After all, the baby hasn't taken shape yet, so it's better to protect him."
As doctors, facing so many separations of life and death every day, they may have long ago taken it lightly. But for Shen Ke and Xi Xiangdong, it means that they will never have children.
Xi Xiangdong didn't even remember how he got out of the office. He sat in the corridor for a long time, surrounded by the familiar smell of disinfectant in the hospital, the cold doctors and nurses coming and going in a hurry, and the pale patients.
He was just about to light a cigarette when he remembered that he was in the hospital, so he rubbed it in confusion and threw it into the trash can. Then he got up and walked towards the CT room.
Shen Ke was also surprised that it was so troublesome to do a pre-pregnancy check-up, and even after a long time, she was still not informed of the results.
Xi Xiangdong opened the door, and Shen Ke immediately looked at him happily: "Mr. Xi!"
"Yeah." He responded softly and walked up to rub her hair.
Shen Ke put on his shoes and got out of bed while complaining: "What kind of hospital is this? It's so troublesome to do a pregnancy test..."
"Are you tired? Let's go back to the hotel."
After saying that, he squatted down in front of her.
Shen Ke panicked and pressed his shoulders, trying to help him up, but he just lowered his head and tied her shoelaces for her before standing up.
"Let me buy you a pair of flat shoes on the way back."
Shen Ke nodded, but his cheeks turned red. The nurse next to him was watching.
When leaving the ward, Shen Ke remembered: "By the way, where are the test results? Do I have them? No one came to tell me..."
Xi Xiangdong held her hand and froze. Before going to the ward, he had already told the people at the hospital not to tell her about her condition.
After receiving no response for a long time, Shen Ke looked up at him in surprise. He was wearing a black coat, and his whole figure seemed to be melting into the night, with a faint aura of sadness.
