After breakfast, Yu Xiangwan went out to stare at the decoration of the small cafeteria in the apartment.
Gu Qingning did not go out sloppily, saying that she was looking for a second-hand car with high cost performance and suitable for modification.
As for Fu Xiaoxue, she also returned to university.
On this rare day when he could have a good rest, Yu Zhiming enjoyed the quietness of being alone, which was very comfortable.
He was reading a professional medical book as thick as a brick in his bedroom, and before he knew it, it was lunch time.
He went to the kitchen and cooked a plate of dumplings to fill his stomach. Yu Zhiming picked up the erhu and played three songs.
Perhaps because of his rich experience and elevated state of mind, Yu Zhiming picked up the erhu again. After more than a month of practice, he feels that his erhu skills have improved rapidly and have reached the level of a master.
In Yu Xiangwan's words, Yu Zhiming wears sunglasses, holds an erhu, plays a few tunes in a crowded square or subway entrance, and has enough food for the day.
Dad's early expectations for Yu Zhiming, his wish to support himself with the erhu, finally came true...
Yu Zhiming put away the erhu and went back to the living room to exercise for a while. He took out the walnuts, peanuts, sweet potato sticks and other snacks brought by his third sister from his hometown. He turned on the TV and randomly found a live sports program to start his leisure time.
But twenty minutes later, Yu Zhiming's enjoyment time was interrupted by a phone call.
A call from Teacher Qi Yue.
"Zhi Ming, it's not carcinoma in situ, it's the kind of secondary cancer that spreads and metastasizes. You can detect it at an early stage, right?"
Yu Zhiming did not answer and asked instead: "Teacher, cancer metastasis has occurred, indicating that the cancer has entered an advanced stage."
"Isn't there a big difference if the secondary cancer is detected earlier or later?"
Most malignant tumors will generally spread to other parts of the body or organs through hematogenous metastasis, lymphatic metastasis, implantation metastasis, etc. when they develop to an advanced stage.
To put it simply, when the first malignant tumor in the body reaches the mature stage, it begins to spread cancer cell seeds throughout the body through the blood circulation system, lymphatic system, etc. like a dandelion.
When these cancer cell seeds land in the right place, they will take root and grow into new tumors.
Sometimes, these new tumors appear one after another in different parts of the body or organs.
But if the conditions are right, an explosion mode will appear. Like mushrooms in the woods after the rain, they will all pop up, making it difficult for people to guard against them.
When cancer metastasizes, it means that there are cancer cells everywhere in the patient's body.
In this case, surgical removal of the cancerous part no longer makes much sense, and systemic treatment is the main approach, including targeted, immunological, chemotherapy, or local radiotherapy.
The main purpose is to prolong the survival of patients with metastatic cancer as much as possible and improve their quality of life.
Qi Yue's voice came from the mobile phone.
"Why is there no difference?"
"If secondary cancerous sites are detected earlier, targeted radiotherapy or surgery can be used to kill or inhibit the growth of new tumors, allowing patients to live longer and better lives."
"For patients with advanced cancer, if they can live a few more months, they will spare no effort to fight for it."
Yu Zhiming snorted and said, "Teacher, this patient of yours must have a rich family, right?"
At the end stage of cancer, patients basically buy time with money in order to live longer and more comfortably.
The daily treatment cost starts at almost 10,000 yuan, which is beyond the reach of ordinary families.
Just like Zhang Bai, in order to make his mother's life more comfortable, not only the family's savings were gone, but also a house was built.
Qi Yue hummed softly during the call: "Come to the hospital at four o'clock in the afternoon and give the patient an examination..."
After finishing the call with Teacher Qi Yue, Yu Zhiming looked at the time and saw that it was almost 1:30 noon.
He thought for a moment and went to the balcony to feel the weather outside. It was cloudy, breezy, and quite cool.
Yu Zhiming changed his clothes for going out, went downstairs, and left the community. He didn't even pick up a shared bicycle, and wandered toward Huashan Hospital alone.
Walking through small streets and narrow alleys, feeling the atmosphere of life of ordinary citizens in Binhai, Yu Zhiming took a leisurely forty to fifty minutes to arrive at Huashan Hospital.
He first went to the Department of Gynecology. Unfortunately, the familiar Director Liu Yun and Dr. Ding Ye were both off today.
I met a deputy chief physician I knew and was taken to adjust the fetal position of a fetus whose umbilical cord was wrapped around the neck for three weeks.
Yu Zhiming left the gynecology building and received a call from Zhou Mo.
"What's the matter?" Yu Zhiming's usual simple and direct style.
"Dr. Yu, you gave up your rest time and worked overtime to help me and my friends. We must express your gratitude."
On the night of last Thursday, Yu Zhiming worked overtime for more than an hour to work with more than ten company leaders who were introduced by Zhou Mo to the husband of the daughter of Teacher Qi Yue's second wife (the relationship is really complicated).
Physical examination.
Yu Zhiming came to the shady place in front of the building, held his mobile phone, and continued to listen to Zhou Mo's voice.
"Doctor Yu, please set a time. I can treat you to a big dinner tonight or any day next week."
Yu Zhiming brought the phone closer to his mouth and said, "Zhou Mo, there's no need to treat me."
"Because of you and the teacher's relationship, plus the help is not free, they also paid according to hospital standards."
"This treat will be waived."
Zhou Mo insisted: "How can we avoid it?"
"Who doesn't know now? It's hard to get your registration number. How difficult it is for you to do an inspection."
"Dr. Yu, you are so busy every day, and you even worked overtime to help me that night. You have to show your kindness."
While Yu Zhiming was listening to Zhou Mo's words, he also heard another woman's voice on his cell phone.
This voice was much quieter, and it should have been whispered in Zhou Mo's ear.
However, Yu Zhiming still heard it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What the woman said was, "Momo, it must be arranged tonight. I have promised to marry someone else, so I don't want to break my promise."
Just as Yu Zhiming was about to speak, Zhou Mo's voice came from the phone again.
"Tingting, what's the matter with accepting someone else's favor?"
"Dr. Yu, I'll call you later."
Yu Zhiming looked at the screen of his mobile phone where the call had ended and didn't care. He put away his mobile phone and went to the general surgery department again.
To his disappointment, Dr. Cui Zhitan and Dr. Wang Jiangyue were not there either.
This also made Yu Zhiming realize that although doctors are busy at work, their rest times are not fixed, and they even have no rest days.
But when you reach the level of chief physician, you have a lot of autonomy. You can arrange your own schedule and take weekends off like many people do.
At this time, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang again.
It was Zhou Mo who called me. It had been nearly twenty minutes since the last call.
"Zhou Mo, what happened?"
Zhou Mo sighed softly: "Doctor Yu, last time you helped with the physical examination of more than ten company leaders, one of them wanted to make friends with another group of people and wanted you to perform a physical examination for them."
"Tonight's dinner, and the place to eat, were actually decided by the leader."
"Dr. Yu, I'm really sorry. I just found out about this."
Zhou Mo muttered again: "What's going on? I've helped you again and again, but it's not over yet."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, but they also recognize my medical skills."
"However, I really don't have time to eat and socialize recently, and I have to work overtime at night."
"Zhou Mo, please decline for me!"
Zhou Mo explained: "Dr. Yu, I have already rejected you. I am using your ability as a favor and you are not respectful at all."
"Dr. Yu, I don't know people well."
After a pause, Zhou Mo continued on the phone: "Doctor Yu, if nothing else, you agreed to work overtime on Thursday night because of my face."
"I have to express myself no matter what."
"Well, how about I bring Dr. Yu your share of lunch next week?"
"You must be tired of lunch in the cafeteria, right?"
Yu Zhiming said happily: "Zhou Mo, thank you. Isn't it too troublesome?"
"It's not troublesome at all. I just want Auntie to cook more rice and cook more dishes..."
Not long after ending the phone call with Zhou Mo, Yu Zhiming received another call from Rao Yi.
As soon as the call was connected, it was Zhu Meisheng's voice that rang on the phone.
"Dr. Yu, I have thought about it, discussed it with my husband and family, and decided to perform precise tumor removal surgery."
"I want to give birth to my own child."
Yu Zhiming reminded: "Ms. Zhu, I need to tell you that even if the tumor is accurately removed, fertility may not be preserved."
"This also depends on the size of the tumor and the extent of infiltration. Therefore, we have to wait for the operation to know exactly what the outcome will be."
Zhu Meisheng replied on the phone: "Dr. Yu, I understand what you said."
"To tell you the truth, from Friday night to now, we have initiated consultations with several gynecologists."
"They all said that in my case, for the sake of safety, it is best to have a total hysterectomy."
"I asked them again, can the kind of tumor resection surgery you mentioned, Dr. Yu, be possible?"
"They all said that they could not ensure that all the cancerous tissue in the uterus was removed while retaining a uterus large enough to carry a fetus."
"They also said that since Dr. Yu dares to tell you this surgical plan, the possibility of it being implemented is quite high."
"As well-known gynecological experts, they all expressed great recognition of your abilities."
"This also makes me full of confidence in you, Dr. Yu."
"Doctor Yu, please..."
Yu Zhiming ended the phone call with Zhu Meisheng and dialed Director Liu Yun of the Department of Gynecology.
"Director Liu, tomorrow night, I will ask you to perform an endometrial cancer resection surgery..."
Next, Yu Zhiming explained Zhu Meisheng's situation and her requirements in detail.
