Chapter 2333: Powerless

A child who had been diagnosed as having a speech impediment actually recovered. Are the doctors and nurses excited?

The nurse who was taking care of the baby burst into tears. She picked up the little guy who was holding her lap and kissed her hard.

The child was brought to the shelter when he was about four months old. She and several colleagues nursed him until he was nearly two years old.

In addition to taking care of the babies, she and her colleagues also taught the children to speak. Unfortunately, their efforts for more than a year have not yielded any results. The baby can only cry but cannot speak a complete sentence. , he opened his mouth with a hoarse sound of "wuwuahah".

The nurse hugged the child who relied on her and thanked her with tears: "Little girl, thank you! We thought Xiaofu was mute at one time, but you cured his muteness as soon as you took action. Thank you so much. You!"

Xiaofu is the name given to abandoned babies by medical staff. There was an abandoned baby before named Xiaoxing, and before that there was an abandoned baby named Happiness. The three children together are "Happiness" , the medical staff hopes that they will get rid of all diseases and be happy for the rest of their lives.

"You're welcome, the little guy's vocal cords are fine. His inability to speak is due to the central nervous system of his brain. I don't have enough time today to do acupuncture treatment. I just temporarily activated his central nervous system. Tomorrow, another formal acupuncture will be needed to eliminate the hidden dangers of central nervous system and trigeminal neuralgia in the brain."

Le Yun added another sentence: "He just got the acupuncture, so the brain should not be overactive or tired. , It is beneficial to his health to let him rest in a relatively quiet environment."

"I will send Xiaofu back to the ward to rest first." The nurse immediately complied with the doctor's instructions and carried Xiaofu who was clinging to her to the ward. rest.

Originally, some parents were extremely suspicious that a certain little girl’s reputation as a national player in Xinglin was a boast. Seeing that she had solved a child’s major incurable problem, they immediately gave up half of their suspicions. I actually looked forward to it.

Shen Yishou especially wanted to take the little girl to discuss the connection between the location of the needle she just inserted and neurological diseases, but seeing so many children still waiting for the little girl to see a doctor, he had to suppress his emotions. .

The nurse took away a child. Le Yun put the lid of the jade box back into her backpack, hung the backpack on her shoulder, and walked between the children in the first and second rows to conduct group consultation.

She wanted to do a group consultation with a single glance. She was afraid of scaring people and being regarded as a monster, so she had to be more detailed and conduct a clinical consultation.

She walked up and down and stopped to check several children who were seriously ill. Those with mild symptoms were not checked one by one.

From beginning to end,Then he turned to the aisle between the third and fourth rows, stopped next to a seven-year-old child, and reached out to touch the child's spine.

After an examination, I asked the attending doctor who followed me: "Doctor, this child has ankylosing spondylitis, complicated by syringomyelia, renal damage, and, his spine One vertebrae has become diseased, and surgery must be performed to remove the diseased vertebrae. To perform this operation, family members need to sign a consent form and make a choice, whether to install a prosthetic bone or to directly remove the diseased vertebrae.

It takes about a year of recovery time to install the prosthetic bone. During this period, the child's health needs to be carefully taken care of. If the prosthetic bone is damaged by an accidental collision and is not discovered in time, there will be a certain life-threatening risk;

If the diseased vertebrae are removed and no prosthetic bone is installed, the child's neck will become shorter because a vertebrae is missing in the middle. Care must be taken during the recuperation period. If there is a large movement or other accident, the bone ends must be aligned. The alignment may shift. If it is found after healing that you want to correct it, a second surgery will be required. If it is found after healing that the alignment is no longer straight, the child will have a crooked neck, which will have a certain impact on the person's appearance. ”

In a word, surgery is risky, and parents should be cautious in their choice or care.

“There are certain risks in any surgery, and those of us in the industry are aware of it. We will discuss it in detail with the parents of the children later.” The attending doctor deeply understands the risks of surgery, no matter how big or small it is, Whether it is surgery or minor surgery, no surgery is 100% safe, but the risk is different and the probability of occurrence varies.

The doctors all understood the risks of surgery, and they were there to communicate with the parents. Le Yun said no more and continued to see patients. Finally, they diagnosed cerebral infarction and spinal muscular atrophy. child check.

After the examination, I told the truth: "The child with cerebral infarction had a second recurrence of cerebral infarction. Several blood vessels in his brain have aged due to blockage. Even I can't make him age. The blood vessels are rejuvenated.

His cerebral infarction was caused by mitral valve stenosis in his heart, and his heart was underdeveloped and caused mitral valve stenosis. To prevent the recurrence of cerebral infarction, it must be solved first. Heart problem.

With my current ability, I can probably restore him to 70%, that is, after treatment, he is only 70% as healthy as a normal child, and his reaction ability is also better than that of a normal child. Slower and slightly less intelligent. Of course, they can take care of themselves, but they are not as flexible and smart as normal children.

There is also this child with spinal muscular atrophy, which is a genetic disease. Genes cannot be changed, and after treatment, the child's athletic ability will be worse than that of normal healthy children, and his intelligence will also be lower, which is equivalent to about eight percent of the intelligence of a normal child.

His parents chose treatment, notify themYesterday morning, after five o'clock and before seven o'clock, I drew 200 ml of blood on an empty stomach. I asked the doctor to transfer the blood to me at noon tomorrow, and I will prepare targeted medicine for him.

The best time for blood collection is after five in the morning and before seven in the morning. If the hematology department or laboratory doctors are not at work at that time, please ask the hospital to arrange for a doctor to work overtime to draw blood. Then put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate, and the standard bottle should not be exposed to a temperature exceeding 24 degrees for more than one hour. ”

The little girl spoke in great detail. The attending doctor recognized the parents of the child with spinal muscular atrophy. He looked over and found that the mother of the child was staring at the little girl.

Just as he was about to remind the patient, the patient’s mother asked eagerly: “Doctor, does it have to be blood from both parents? Is it okay to be a day late? We are from S Province, Jiangnan, and the child's father may not be able to arrive in Songhai City in time tonight. "

"The blood of the parents is necessary. I need to get the blood of the parents of the child for a test, and then I can prepare targeted drugs. If I can't make it tomorrow morning, I can postpone it to the morning of the day after tomorrow.

The blood must be given to me at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest. After I get the blood sample and study it, I will know that the medicine in my hand is insufficient. If it is insufficient, I can arrange for someone to purchase it in time. It can also be prepared in time the night after tomorrow. For medicines, the child must be observed for at least one or two days after treatment.

I am expected to stay in the No. 1 Hospital for four or five days. My family will rush to Songhai City tomorrow night. It is too late to draw blood in the early morning of the day after tomorrow. "

"I wrote it down. "The eyes of the mother of the child are bright. The drugs to treat spinal muscular atrophy are imported. One injection costs hundreds of thousands, one injection a month, which is more than one million a year. The average family cannot afford it. < br />
Because their family is in an economic development zone and was demolished thanks to the country’s economic development, they have small assets and can currently afford about three years of treatment.

Whether you can afford the cost is one thing. The important thing is that even if there are targeted therapies, they can't cure it, they can only temporarily save the child's life.

The little girl said that it can make the child recover. Eighty percent of normal children are healthy!

Eighty percent, that is, except for slightly lower IQ and reaction ability, they are basically the same as healthy children. What a wonderful therapeutic effect that is!

The patient’s mother almost wanted to call the child’s father immediately and ask him to come over quickly.

The patient’s family had no objections, and Le Yun did not explain the risks of the operation to her. She did not want to Parents of children who give up their children are parents who really love their children, and they will try their best to save their children and make their families complete.

There are still several departments to visit, so you can’t stay in the neurology department for too long. For a long time, Le Yun did not write down the treatment order list immediately, and went to the next department first..

Shen Yishou and others led the way again. Based on the principle of proximity, the next one was the oncology department.

There are many young patients in the oncology department, and there are all kinds of tumors, most of which are malignant tumors. Malignant tumors are cancers.

Mr. Le was in the nursing hall of the inpatient department of the oncology department treating young patients waiting in line. The patients ranged from infants to teenagers who were about to become adults.

When Li Zhao took his junior brother and the nurse to the neurology department, he learned that Miss Le had gone to the oncology department, and then to the oncology department.

They found the oncology department and saw the little girl examining the patient, standing aside silently.

Classmate Le spent half an hour examining all the young patients in the oncology department, and went to a side office to chat with the doctor alone.

The doctor said a few words to the little girl, then invited a parent of a child with lung cancer into the office and closed the door.

Le Yun did not beat around the bush and directly told the parents about a certain child’s condition. The child had a respiratory tract tumor and lung cancer. It had reached an advanced stage, the entire lung was damaged, and the cancer cells had already The whole body, liver and kidneys are rapidly deteriorating after being infected by cancer cells.

The child's body is already riddled with holes that cannot be restored by human intervention. Without treatment, he has at most two months to live.

Classmate Le Le can only relieve his pain and extend his life for two to three months. Extending his life for three months is the maximum period.

If a lung transplant is performed, even if there is a lung source, the chance of successful transplantation is low to close to zero. Moreover, the hospital does not have a matching lung source. The child’s parents have been matched before, but the match failed. .

The existing artificial lungs are called oxygenators or gas exchangers. They are mostly used for extracorporeal circulation during surgery and need to be used in conjunction with a blood pump. In fact, they are artificial heart-lung machines, not implants. A human organ in the body that can permanently replace lung function.

The child has already used an artificial lung to help him breathe in the hospital, so it is unrealistic to use an artificial lung machine to replace the lungs.

No matter how powerful Ms. Le Xiao is, the child's body is already damaged, and no matter how good her medicine is, it is of no use. Even if the medicine is used to kill the cancer cells, the child's body will not survive for half a year.
