After coming out of PICU, Zheng Ren saw Lin Yuan standing outside and Gu Xiaoran comforting the patient's mother.
The rest of the family had not arrived yet. The traffic jam in the Imperial Capital was no joke. In extreme cases, it was normal to be stuck in traffic for more than ten hours.
"I'm done. The blood alcohol concentration is over the limit. The initial diagnosis is alcohol poisoning," Zheng Ren said. "There are also complications such as cerebral edema. We've already started dialysis. The specific effect will only be evaluated in a few hours."
After hearing Zheng Ren's words, the patient's mother burst into tears. Gu Xiaoran heard her crying and wiped her tears as well.
Zheng Ren really wanted to glare at Gu Xiaoran fiercely. Why did an old man like her cry so rarely? What was going on?
After waiting for a full five minutes, the woman felt slightly better. She sobbed worriedly and asked, "Doctor, is the child okay?"
"The condition is very serious. I think the doctor at PICU will ask you to sign a critical illness love letter later."
Upon hearing this, the woman's tears welled up in her eyes again.
"If you have such thoughts, you should be more careful." Su Yun guessed that the child should be fine, so he wanted to change the topic as much as possible.
"…"
"It's a burn. How can you take off your clothes directly? Pieces of skin fell off after being torn off. What could have been preserved could not be preserved. This is still the forearm. If it were the upper body, I'm afraid it would be even heavier, "Su Yun said.
"The clothes are so hot. How can I not take them off …"
"Wash them with cold water first. Don't feel bad. If you're not afraid of the cold, soak them in cold water for a while, "Su Yun said." Take off your clothes after you're done. Then, cover the wound and go to the hospital immediately. "
The patient's mother did not say anything. She subconsciously tried to remember what Su Yun said, but she did not know what was the use of memorizing it.
However, if she did not do something under such circumstances, the negative emotions in her heart would probably explode.
"Dialysis has already started. It can filter out the alcohol absorbed by the child in the blood," Zheng Ren said. "The rest is symptomatic treatment."
After saying that, Zheng Ren looked at Gu Xiaoran and said, "Xiaoran, don't cry with him."
Gu Xiaoran quickly wiped her tears and nodded vigorously.
"Take good care of him. Let me know on WeChat if the child has any reactions after dialysis."
"Okay, okay, Boss Zheng." Gu Xiaoran nodded repeatedly.
After Zheng Ren finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Boss Zheng, is the child alright?" Lin Yuan asked softly from behind.
She sent the child to the PICU. Lin Yuan felt a little uncomfortable looking at the unconscious child.
"I'm fine." Zheng Ren left the patient's family and began to speak with certainty. "He was sent here early, so the brain edema is probably not serious. The alcohol will be filtered out by dialysis, and liver function should recover very quickly. "
"Oh, that's good, that's good." Lin Yuan let out a long sigh.
"Let's go eat, let's go eat," Su Yun said. "I'm hungry."
"Let's go take a look at Little Rock," Zheng Ren said.
"He's pretty good. The nurses in the ICU really like him," Su Yun said with a smile. "If Little Stone can survive until he grows up, he'll definitely be more popular than you."
Zheng Ren smiled. He did not dislike this analogy. Little Shitou was obedient and cute, so he would definitely be more liked by girls than her.
However, would it really be possible to endure until he grew up? Zheng Ren sighed inwardly.
"Boss Zheng, about Little Stone's surgery … Do you think his illness can be cured?" Lin Yuan knew it was impossible, but he still could not help but want to ask.
"No." Zheng Ren gave an answer that Lin Yuan already knew but refused to accept with certainty.
"If cancer can be cured, the next Nobel Prize will definitely belong to the boss," Su Yun said. "Change to a more nutritious question."
"Uh …" Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment.
"Do you want to ask, since it can't be cured, why do you still have to suffer from treatment?" Su Yun was like a roundworm, clearly knowing what Lin Yuan was thinking.
Lin Yuan nodded.
"If everyone is like you, there's no need for all hospitals to open," Su Yun said. "Will anyone not die? The purpose of medical treatment is to prolong human life, not to create a myth of immortality. Life is bitter, and it's not just illness that will cause distress. "
These words … seemed to make sense, but Lin Yuan felt that Su Yun was being unreasonable. Something was wrong.
"Don't listen to Su Yun," Zheng Ren said. "Little Stone's illness is very serious. If you want to cure it … it's the kind where the chances are slim."
Lin Yuan was stunned. What was Boss Zheng saying? The chances were slim, but it was not that there was no chance!
"Boss Zheng, did I hear wrongly?" Lin Yuan asked subconsciously.
"No," Zheng Ren said very seriously. Zheng Ren said very seriously, "Human research on diseases has progressed with the advancement of science and technology. Many diseases that used to be incurable diseases have been conquered step by step. Little Stone's medical compliance is good. I'm going to start a topic. Are you interested? "
"Topic?" Lin Yuan was stunned.
"Boss, did you see that? She's the kind of person who has become stupid from reading books," Su Yun said. "Ask her about the types of cancer and the pathological causes. She can explain it clearly and logically."
Lin Yuan was still thinking about the slim chances that Boss Zheng had mentioned. He did not notice the deeper meaning hidden under Su Yun's' sarcastic 'words. His mind was full of exclamation marks.
"Little Lin, you go back. We're going home for dinner." Su Yun saw that Lin Yuan was in a state of deep thought and knew that her mind had not come around for a while, so he raised his hand and waved it twice.
Although they had to go back to the department to change their clothes, Su Yun and Zheng Ren strode away.
Although Lin Yuan was tall and had long legs, it was a little troublesome to chase after Boss Zheng and Brother Yun. He had to jog. This time, she had something on her mind. When she saw Su Yun waving, she subconsciously raised her hand.
Boss Zheng had actually said that the chances were slim. Lin Yuan carefully recalled Little Stone's radiographic films and condition. She could not find a reason to convince herself that his condition would improve.
Everything was palliative treatment, no matter how much effort Boss Zheng had put in.
Lin Yuan tried hard to think. Her fingers inadvertently reached to her mouth again, wanting to bite her fingernails.
However, the moment her fingers reached the corner of her mouth, she woke up and quickly put her hand down.
It was getting late. It was better to hurry home, Lin Yuan thought to herself. As for Little Stone's illness … Boss Zheng could treat it if he wanted to. He was a big boss and she was just a temporary member.
Until now, Lin Yuan still did not understand what had just happened.
She returned to the ward to change her clothes and drove home in a small polo. Along the way, she kept thinking about Boss Zheng's words — hope was slim.
If it was anyone else who said this, even if it was her mentor at Harvard, Lin Yuan would not care and would not take it seriously.
However, the person who said this was Boss Zheng!
Unknowingly, Zheng Ren had left a deep mark in Lin Yuan's heart.
