Uncle Jiu is ill, has liver disease, and is now in the late stage of liver cancer. After examination at the cancer hospital in the city, the doctor said that there is no need for surgery. It has spread throughout the body, and it will take a month at most. Considering that in the city,
The cost of hospitalization here was too high, reimbursement was not convenient, and it was too far for relatives and friends to visit, so I returned to the county hospital.
Niu Bo felt that it was already past eleven o'clock in the county hospital, but fortunately it was still in the morning. Visiting patients is usually in the morning, which means there is hope for recovery, but if you visit the patient in the afternoon, it means cursing the person to die early. So Niu Bo felt that it was already past eleven o'clock in the county hospital.
Although Bo came back a little late, fortunately it was still before twelve o'clock, so there was no problem in visiting the patients.
This kind of disease is usually found in oncology departments and general internal medicine departments. Niu Bo just entered the ward building and heard someone coughing behind him. He thought the voice was familiar. Looking back, he saw that it was Zhou Mengyao. Zhou Mengyao did not expect to see him here.
, seeing him running around in a hurry, he greeted him and asked what was going on.
"An uncle of mine is hospitalized because of a tumor. I don't know which ward he is in." Niu Bo did not show politeness to Zhou Mengyao. He felt that this girl was very forthright and had a boyish temperament, and she was very relaxed and casual when getting along with her.
"This is easy to handle. What's your name? It will come out as soon as you go to the inpatient department. Come with me and I'll make an internal call and ask." Zhou Mengyao patted Niu Bo's arm and asked Niu Bo to follow him. Niu Bo smiled.
He smiled, shook his head and followed Zhou Mengyao.
It's easy to find an acquaintance, so he quickly found out the ward number. "Thank you, old classmate, I'll treat you to dinner later." Niu Bo really wanted to invite you, but Zhou Mengyao didn't give him the chance, "No, hurry up."
Go see people, it will be twelve o'clock soon." He turned and left.
Niu Bo's ninth uncle is named Niu Hanlin, and he has a very impressive name. He actually didn't even finish elementary school. His family is relatively poor, and very few of the older generation can finish junior high school. Unlike his father, who actually went to a technical secondary school.
The technical secondary school at that time was not much different from the undergraduate degree now. Unfortunately, my father had to catch up with sports and went home before finishing. Later, although he got a replacement diploma, he had no work arrangements.
Niu Bo saw Uncle Jiu and Auntie in the ward, handed over the money, said some words, and went to the doctor's office to check on the situation. After arriving here, the doctor also knew Zhou Mengyao, so he was naturally more polite to Niu Bo.
"This patient's condition has basically been determined. It means that we can't control it with our current methods. Our current treatment can be a two-pronged approach, including chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine, which is to maintain it. Finally, give injections to reduce the patient's symptoms.
It's painful. You are also a medical student and you know this situation." The doctor told Niu Bo the truth.
"Well, thank you, doctor." Niu Bo said goodbye to the doctor and returned to the ward. Uncle Jiu saw Niu Bo leaving and coming back, and knew that Niu Bo had gone to understand the situation. "Xiao Bo, please take a rest. I will follow you later.
Let’s eat together with your aunt.”
"No need, Uncle Jiu, you can just stay here for a few days and your health will get better. It's nothing for you. I've seen a lot of doctors, so you don't have to worry. Just follow the doctor's arrangements." Niu Bo also said
Give Uncle Jiu some soothing pills.
"Forget it, Xiaobo, you don't have to say those reassuring words to me. I know what's going on with my body. I'm also literate, and I can understand the diagnosis results. All I want to know now is how many days I can live.
There are not many people in our village who are in a situation like mine." Uncle Jiu's voice was weak and a little sad when he spoke.
Niu Bo was speechless. There are quite a lot of people with this kind of disease in rural areas in recent years. Basically, it turns into cancer and they will fall down soon. It lasts for about a year and a half at most. There is a man in a neighboring village who is in his thirties and has poor health.
He was as strong as a cow. He was diagnosed with skin cancer and collapsed within two months.
Aunt Jiu's eyes turned red again, "What are you thinking about? Didn't the doctor say that there are examples of cures for this disease? He also said that it is related to everyone's mental energy. As long as you can hold your breath, this problem will exist.
Turn around. We still have a few houses and livestock, so I will keep an eye on you even if you are trying to sell things!"
"It's just a matter of selling the few houses in our house. How much can we get if we sell them? After they are sold, you and your three children can live in a bright land (an open space, an uncovered space). You don't think you will have to spend a day in the hospital here."
No matter how much money you spend, how many days can it last even if you sell it! I can't trick you mothers again before I leave, my dear mother, listen to me, let's go home." Uncle Jiu also shed tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Then I can't just watch you go! If you leave, what will we do, and who will the children cling to in the future? I don't care about you. If you fall over now, you will walk on the front foot, and I will drink on the back foot.
The medicine will follow you, or I will take a few children with you to look for you underground." Aunt Jiu sobbed in a low voice, holding onto Uncle Jiu's hand and not letting go.
Niu Bo's throat was choked, and tears couldn't stop coming from his eyes, "Uncle Jiu, listen to my Aunt Jiu, you must hold your breath and don't give up until the end. You were still able to jump and dance a few days ago.
Yeah, the body doesn't break down so quickly. When I was in school, I heard a report from someone who was diagnosed with the late stage of this disease in his forties. In the end, he managed to survive it. He just maintained a good mood every day and firmly believed that he could
Well, now he is over seventy years old."
"That's right, that's right, didn't TV show someone getting cured? Why can't we cure it?" Aunt Jiu wiped her tears with her sleeves and held Uncle Jiu's hand with both hands.
"I'm also telling you, Uncle Jiu, in your case, the effect of traditional Chinese medicine will be better. Maybe you can get it back with a suitable prescription. You don't have to worry about money. I will help you find a way. In your case,
I understand, it is the slowest type of change, so you don’t have to worry, it might get better in a few days." Niu Bo said while thinking of a solution.
Before leaving, he stuffed more than a thousand yuan that he had with him into Aunt Jiu's hand, "Aunt Jiu, you take this money first, and treat it as if I lent it to you. What's important now is Uncle Jiu's nutrition."
Up. Uncle Jiu, listen to your nephew and me, I will definitely find a way for you. You were so good to me when I was a child, just like my biological uncle, hold on, uncle."
When he got home, Niu Bo briefly explained the situation and asked his father, Niu Weihua. "Dad, do we have any prescriptions that can cure Uncle Jiu's problem? You have seen the disease over the years, so you must have something to do about this."
Niu Weihua thought for a while, "There is a prescription, which is nothing more than detoxification and blood stasis. Although he is in an advanced stage, his body is still okay. To use this prescription, it is to fight poison with poison. If it is good, there will be a turnaround. If it is not good, it may be accelerated."
We cannot shoulder this responsibility, so I cannot use this recipe indiscriminately. Besides, it is not easy to find a medicinal primer."
Niu Bo's eyes lit up, "Dad, what kind of medicine introduction do you want? As long as it has a name and a place of origin, I will go find it!"
