Chapter 30: Helping in times of need

Du's mother stayed with her husband in the hospital until the second day. The hospital again arranged for Du's father to undergo several laboratory tests and a liver biopsy on the third day.

After the liver puncture surgery, you need to lie in bed for 24 hours. Dad Du also followed the doctor and stayed in bed.

Mother Du was anxiously waiting for the result. She wanted to call her daughter several times but didn't dare.

The test results came out the next day. Ma Du was invited into the doctor's office again. When she heard the doctor announced that she was diagnosed with liver cancer, which was already in the middle stage, she felt like the sky was falling. She felt dizzy and fainted.

.

The doctors reacted by supporting the patient's family members, preventing her from falling, pinching her, and using first aid to wake her up. The assistant doctor poured a glass of warm water for the patient's family members to calm her down.

The breadwinner of the family is terminally ill, how can she calm down? Ma Du's hands holding the paper water cup kept shaking, even her lips were trembling, her mind went blank, she sat like a wooden figure, her eyes unfocused.

Doctors are used to seeing the various reactions of family members of terminally ill patients, and they also understand the family members' completely uncontrollable grief in this situation. They comfort them gently and tell the family members that even if the liver cancer is in the middle stage, it does not mean that there is no hope. Let her

Don't be too pessimistic.

Du Ma heard the doctors' consolation, but she didn't remember a single word. She sat blankly for a long time before her empty eyes regained focus, and tears poured out like a fountain.

The patient's family members were so emotional that the medical staff helped her to the waiting area outside the office to let her calm down so as not to delay other patients from checking the results.

Du's mother sat blankly, her brain confused. After sitting for half an hour, her tears dried up, and then she slowly took out her mobile phone and called her girl.

Du Miaoshu worked very hard at her internship company and treated her internship period as a formal job. She was conscientious, open-minded, eager to learn, and self-disciplined.

That day was in the afternoon, not long after she went to work, when a phone call came at work. She looked at her phone and found that it was her mother. She originally wanted not to answer it because her parents never called her during her working hours, but this time she called suddenly.

Worried about something urgent at home, I quietly left the work area and went to the bathroom corridor to answer the phone.

She ran to the corridor, and the phone automatically hung up because it timed out. She was about to call her mother when another call came on her mobile phone. It was her mother who dialed again and answered quickly: "Mom, this is Shushu, are you and dad okay?...

…”

Du's mother couldn't get through the first call, so she tried again. When she heard her daughter's voice, she broke down emotionally after having suppressed it for days, and burst into tears: "Shu Shu, your dad... your dad..."

Her voice was hoarse and she was choked with sobs, and she could hardly speak complete words.

When she heard her mother's cry coming from the phone, Du Miaoshu's heart beat uncontrollably. Her chest seemed to be pressed by something and she had difficulty breathing. Her mother rarely cried unless she was wronged, let alone howled.

I cried loudly, my mother's cries were heartbreaking, something must have happened to my father.

She could hardly stand, her legs were shaking, she was panicking, and the hand holding the phone was also shaking: "Mom, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with my dad, what's wrong with dad..."

What happened to dad?

Frightened by her mother's cry, Du Miaoshu panicked and asked again: "Mom, Mom, Mom, don't cry first. Tell me what happened. What happened to my father?"

what?"

Sitting on the bench in the hospital, Ma Du's mind was in chaos. She heard her daughter's words and wanted to speak. She opened her mouth several times but could not make a sound. She was urged several times in a row. She was anxious and panicked and cried.

He made a sound and replied in a hoarse voice: "Your dad... your dad has liver cancer, Shushu, your dad has liver cancer... Wu-"

When Du Ma said those words, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength and let out a sob. Her throat was blocked again, and she cried silently again.

When the word "liver cancer" entered her ears, there was a loud "boom" in Du Miaoshu's brain. She could no longer stand, her legs became weak, and she suddenly fell to the ground.

The man sat down, tears streaming down his face. He clutched the phone tightly in his hand and wanted to speak, but his throat seemed to be strangled and he couldn't speak.

The sound of heavy breathing and silent sobbing came from the other side of the phone. She knew it was her mother who was choking. She also heard some other noises. Some people sighed, and some said, "I have liver cancer, no wonder I cry like that."

Alas, that kind of disease is a fatal disease..." and so on.

Thin discussion came from the mobile phone. Du Miaoshu's dirty hands seemed to be strangled by a hand. She had difficulty breathing. She opened her mouth several times before she made a sound: "Mom, which hospital are you and dad in now? Dad knows.

Are you there yet? Mom, please tell me where you are first, and I’ll be right back..."

Because of the huge panic in her heart, she was trembling, her teeth were chattering, and her voice was trembling. It took all her strength to suppress her crying.

When Du's mother heard the girl's crying voice, her tears flowed even more fiercely. After trying several times, she controlled her emotions and stopped crying again. She answered with a trembling voice: "Shu Shu, your father and I arrived a few days ago.

The province is here, it's the People's Hospital in the city, I... didn't dare to tell your dad, he doesn't know yet..."

"Mom, don't tell dad yet. I'll be there right away. I'll go to the hospital later. Mom, just wait for me. Don't be afraid. I'll be here soon. I'll call you when I get to the hospital..."

She was panicking, but Du Miaoshu tried her best to calm herself down. Her grandparents could not count on her. Her younger brother was several years younger than her and could not take on any important responsibilities. When such a big thing happened to her father, her mother did not discuss it personally.

Individuals can share their worries, but if she doesn't become stronger, how can my mother be able to withstand the pressure alone?

After comforting her mother for a few words, she hung up the phone. When she lowered her head, she realized that she was sitting on the ground. She stood up slowly. Her hands were still shaking and her legs were weak. However, she held on and did not fall again.

Go soft.

Du Miaoshu dragged her soft legs and moved. Every step she took was like walking on a pile of cotton. It took a few steps to find a feeling. She slowly walked back to the work department from the corridor and tidied up her desktop.

Keep the completed work, and then go to the person in charge of you, Manager Zhang, to ask for leave.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Manager Zhang is in his forties and is an elite white-collar worker. He has extremely strict requirements on his subordinates at work and is fair in handling. He is highly trusted by his leaders and convinced by his subordinates.

.

When I saw the intern's eyes were red and she had obviously just cried, I guessed that she must have encountered something very difficult. When I heard that she was going to ask for personal leave, I didn't embarrass her and asked her why.

"Manager, I...Dad, am in the hospital. I was just diagnosed with...liver cancer. I may have to take a few days off." Du Miaoshu held back her tears and didn't let herself cry.

"Liver cancer, have you been diagnosed?" Manager Zhang was shocked. Liver cancer can basically be said to be a terminal cancer. No wonder the girl looked like the sky had fallen.

"It should be confirmed."

"Then I'll give you three days' leave first. You can go to the hospital and understand the specific situation before we discuss it. If three days' leave is not enough, you can call me and tell me." Manager Zhang did not ask any further questions and generously gave the leave first.

After thinking about it, he added: "If you still have any difficulties and you can't find anyone to ask for advice, you can also call me outside working hours. I may not be able to help you solve the problem. Maybe I can give you some advice."

A little advice.”

"Thank you, manager, I... will go to the hospital first." The manager had always been very kind to her, and Du Miaoshu felt grateful. She bowed deeply, took two steps back, turned around, and hurried away.

The girl ran out with tears. Manager Zhang sighed sympathetically. After a while, he went to the work department and handed over Du Miaoshu's work to another employee, asking others to help share the work. Manager Zhang naturally explained the reason.

Because of this, the employee who took over Du Miaoshu's job knew that Du's father had liver cancer and told his colleagues during chat. The old and new employees who worked in the same department also soon learned that Du Miaoshu's father had a terminal illness.

After leaving the manager's office, Du Miaoshu took a small bag containing personal belongings and left the company directly. After going downstairs, she went to the street and took a taxi to the hospital.

She reported the location, sat in the car and cried non-stop. The driver was startled and he had to persuade her for a while. When she heard that the passenger's father was terminally ill, the driver didn't know how to comfort her.

Du Miaoshu shed tears all the way while the car drove. She was sent to the outpatient building of the hospital. She wiped away her tears, paid the money, and hurried into the building. She called her mother again to find out where she was, and then searched all the way there.

.

Du's mother called the girl and sat still, like a wooden person. She thought a lot. She and her husband were actually less than fifty years old. Because they lived a difficult life and did dirty and tiring work,

So I look old.

Her wife was terminally ill at such a young age. She couldn't watch her man just waiting to die if she couldn't be cured. But if she wanted to be cured, how could she spend the money to treat the disease when her family was like that?

There are only two workers in her family, and they work from dawn to dusk every day. Her husband also works a part-time job, which is barely enough to make ends meet. Her daughter will graduate soon this year, and she will be able to relax a little bit. Who would have thought that at this juncture, her husband would have liver cancer again?

.

The little money they had saved was only enough for their son's tuition and miscellaneous expenses for a year, and the hospital stay was almost the same. Even if the company paid insurance, it would have to be reimbursed later.

Du Ma's heart felt like needles pricking her heart. She was asked to give up saving her man. She couldn't do it. Where could she borrow the money for medical treatment?

She sat in a daze for not knowing how long she sat there. She heard her cell phone ringing and saw that the number was her girl's. She automatically answered the call and reported which department she was in.

With her mind in turmoil, Du Ma hung up the phone and sat there for a long time, holding the phone in trance. Until two human legs appeared in front of her eyes, she looked up blankly and saw her girl. The tears that had dried up welled up again.

Choked and unable to speak: "Shu Shu-"

Du Miaoshu followed the information given by her mother and asked the medical director. She found the floor accurately and then found a certain department. When she saw her mother sitting in a daze, her heart felt sore and painful. She ran to her mother and didn't even call out "Mom".

, tears rolled down first.

When her mother raised her head, she could no longer hold back the pain in her heart. She squatted down, hugged her mother, and began to cry.

Mother Du hugged her daughter and also sobbed.

The mother and daughter held each other's hands and cried, crying heartbrokenly. Some of the patients' family members couldn't bear it, so they stepped forward to persuade and comfort them, and gave them some encouragement.

There are no obstacles in life that cannot be overcome. It is easy to say those words to comfort others. But when you truly become the person being comforted, you will realize how deep the pain is in your heart and how powerless you are in the face of insurmountable disasters.

Du Miaoshu cried so hard that her throat was dry. She choked with sobs and thanked the person who had always comforted her. She went to the bathroom to wash her face, then wiped her mother's face. She mustered up the courage to walk into the doctor's office and consult her father's condition.

The doctor received the patient's family, showed the patient's family the images again, and took the trouble to explain the images and laboratory tests one by one according to the data to see which aspects of the patient's condition were more serious.

Liver cancer is a definite fact, and what doctors and family members discuss is what may happen next, such as the possibility of rapid spread of cancer cells or extrahepatic metastasis, how to treat it, etc.

Du Miaoshu endured the heartache and uneasiness, and listened carefully to the doctors' analysis of the condition and treatment suggestions. She was not a person in the medical field and was not an expert. She kept listening and did not make a decision. She told the doctor first and then discussed with her family before making a decision.

Specific treatment plan.

When she came out of the doctor's office, her legs were heavier than lead. Her father was already in the middle stage of liver cancer. According to biopsy tests and multiple special examinations, the cancer cells may spread or metastasize at any time!

Once liver cancer patients enter the advanced stage, their days are basically numbered.

Dad is already in a very dangerous stage. If he cannot control it, it may soon develop into an advanced stage.

The doctor's words were swirling in her mind. Du Miaoshu's legs weighed more than a thousand pounds. She moved step by step from the office to the waiting area outside. She sat down next to her mother and held her mother's hand. Her own hands were also shaking.

"Shu Shu, what should we do?, what should we do..." Du's mother held her daughter's hand and almost collapsed again.

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Mom, there is still hope. Surgery can be performed and liver transplantation can be performed..." Du Miaoshu was also panicking and had to comfort her mother. In fact, the doctor

Having said that liver transplantation is not practical, let alone the issue of money and the risks of whether the operation will be successful, the source of the liver alone is a big issue.

There are also patients waiting for liver transplants in the hospital. One of them has been waiting for nearly eight months but has not found a qualified liver source, and another has been waiting for half a year.

Moreover, Dad Du's own condition is not very good, and the risk of liver transplant is as great as surgical removal of tumor.

In Dad Du's case, surgery to remove the cancerous lesions is also very risky. The cancerous lesions are too scattered and scattered in various areas of the entire liver lobe. Therefore, currently, the only treatment options are interventional therapy, targeted therapy, and radiotherapy.

L.

The doctor's analysis made Du Miaoshu feel desperate, but she couldn't let her mother know, so she could only bear the huge pain and suffering silently.

With her daughter here, Du Ma has something to rely on. After listening to the analysis, she has hope in her heart. However, the little spark of hope that she had just given birth to suddenly died out again: "The treatment will cost at least hundreds of thousands. Where can we go to borrow money?"

So much money..."

"..." Du Miaoshu was also silent. Yes, their family is an ordinary family. It is difficult to raise thirty to fifty thousand yuan, let alone hundreds of thousands.

Money is not everything, but without money, nothing is possible.

Mother and daughter are worried about money.

The Du family does not have any wealthy relatives. The richer one is Du Guoqin, Du's father's younger brother, who once did a breeding business and has a fortune of three to four hundred thousand yuan.

Du Miaoshu also knew clearly that she would not be able to borrow money from her uncle. Her aunt was mean and it would be better if her uncle's family did not get into trouble. Don't expect help.

Don't count on her grandparents either. Ever since her father was very young, her grandparents have only favored her uncle and have done everything for her younger son. Her father only allowed him to go to junior high school and stopped studying. His uncle is not a student, so her grandparents insist on spending money.

I sent my little uncle to a vocational high school.

Grandpa and grandma like their little son, so grandma built a house for her brother-in-law and found a wife for him. Her grandma gave her father an old mud house, and her father found a wife to build his own house. Everything was

On their own.

The other relatives of the Du family are not rich either. It might be okay to borrow ten thousand to twenty thousand, but if they want to borrow more, they may not be willing to borrow it.

After screening all her relatives, Du Miaoshu was at a loss. She was stunned for a while, silently took out her mobile phone, flipped to a number and dialed. The response was the same "The one you dialed" was repeated over and over again.

The number has been switched off."

Le Xiaoniu's cell phone is still turned off, indicating that she is still in retreat doing research and has not come out yet.

Holding the phone, she stared at it for a long time, then looked at the time, and silently dialed another number of Le Xiaoniu, the one she bought after going to the capital to study. Le Xiaoniu told her to give her that number before retreating.

My brother will hold it for me. If there is any emergency and I need help, call another number.

Chao Jiamei's young boy was very busy after returning to school. He was running around here and there every day. On this day, after finishing his afternoon classes, he was driving to the Five Zang Temple to worship. Halfway through, his cell phone rang.

He knew the ringtone belonged to his sister Xiaocutie's cell phone. Xiaotuanzi told the people he had contact with before going into retreat that he would go into retreat for research, so there were almost no calls from anyone. During the holidays, there were only messages or emails.

Someone called Xiaotuanzi, presumably because of something. The handsome boy parked his car and took out his cute phone to see who was calling.

He took out the phone and saw "Little Belly" on the caller ID. He knew it was Du Miaoshu, Xiaotuanzi's only friend in high school. He saw that the call had lasted for more than forty seconds and hurriedly answered: "It's classmate Du Miaoshu, right? I'm

Lele’s brother, did you encounter any difficulties in finding Lele?”

He also knew that Xiao Lele's classmate would not make phone calls if he had a small stomach. After all, that child sent messages to Xiao Lele's mobile phone during the Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day, and he also responded to the messages.

Bless Xiao Lele in return.

Du Miaoshu dialed the number of her deskmate, feeling uneasy. When the call was connected, she heard a gentle male voice, as gentle as jade. Especially when the last straight-to-the-point question hit her ears, she couldn't help but choked up: "Sorry to bother you, I

Could you please ask if there is any way to contact Le Xiaoniu?"

"Classmate Du, this is really a pity. Lele has not contacted me since she went to do research, nor have she contacted her bodyguards. Unless Lele takes the initiative to call, no one can find her whereabouts."

Chao Yubo reluctantly replied with a bad news and continued to ask: "Classmate Du, do you have anything urgent to ask Lele? You can tell me first. Even if I can't solve it, I can provide some suggestions."

"I...I...my dad...he has liver cancer..., I want to ask Le Xiaoniu to help my dad see a doctor..." Du Miaoshu didn't want to say why she asked her deskmate, but Le Xiaoniu's brother's voice was too gentle, so she

She can't hide it.

"Mr. Du has liver cancer?" Chao Yubo was surprised and asked quickly: "Has it been diagnosed? Is it serious? Scan or take a photo of all the test sheets and diagnosis results and send them to me, and I will take them to Lele.

Brother, take a look.

Liver disease cannot be postponed. I don’t know what is the best way to treat it. I have consulted experts before giving you advice. Treatment of liver disease also requires a lot of money. Send me your bank card. I will start with Lele’s

I’ll transfer money from my bank card to you for emergency purposes, don’t refuse it yet, this money was lent to you by Lele, and I will pay it back to Lele when you and your brother make money from work.”

Du Miaoshu listened to the boy's pleasant voice, listened to him proactively asking for laboratory test forms and asking for expert consultation, and also thoughtfully asked for a bank card to help transfer money. Gratitude welled up in her heart, tears fell down like broken beads, and she kept choking and saying

Thanks.

"You're welcome. You are my sister's only friend in high school. You are my sister's little sister. If I can't even help you with a little help, I will have to hurry when Lele comes back."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chao Yubo listened to the girl's cry and guessed that she was sad, so he comforted her gently: "Don't panic, lucky people have their own destiny, I believe that Mr. Du will definitely save the day.

You and your family should not worry about not having enough money. If you have money problems, call me at any time. I will only ask the hospital to use the best medicine to keep your condition under control.

You should consult your doctor to see if you can have a liver transplant. If you are suitable for a liver transplant, do it."

"Thank you. I asked about it, and the doctor said that liver transplantation is too risky for my dad's condition, and the doctor does not recommend liver transplantation."

"You can't do liver transplantation, you can only have targeted treatment, right..."

Chao Yubo asked a few questions, asked Du to take photos of the laboratory test sheets for him, hung up the phone, and went to eat first.

Her daughter was on the phone, but Ma Du remained silent, her eyes full of hope. When her daughter finished the call, she asked eagerly: "Shu Shu, are you talking to your former deskmate, the one who gave your brother the pen?

"

Du Miaoshu shook her head: "No, my high school classmate went to do research and didn't come back during the Chinese New Year. Her brother held her cell phone for her. This is her brother. My classmate asked me to send my dad's test results

Shan took pictures for him, and he went to ask experts for help, and... he also... loaned money to my dad for medical treatment on behalf of my little classmate."

"Really? Your brother at the same table is willing to borrow money?" Du Ma's excited eyes flashed with hope. If she had money, she could treat her child's father. As long as there are people around, money can be earned.

"Well, my deskmate's brother said that he kept a bank card for my deskmate and transferred the money from my deskmate's bank card." Since ancient times, there are those who add icing on the cake, but there are few who offer help in times of need. Le Xiaoniu and her brother are the latter.

.

Du Miaoshu wiped away the tears on her face, unfolded the test sheets in the file bag one by one, took pictures, and sent them to her deskmate's mobile phone after taking the pictures.

She waited for a few minutes, and her brother at the same table replied with a "received". After receiving a reply, she collected the test sheets and put them in a bag. She helped her mother wash her face before going to see her father.
