My sister’s mother-in-law heart is not very good, one year it finally broke out, and the family immediately sent her to a university more than 100 kilometers away from home In the hospital, it is said that there is an expert in the field of heart with very good medical skills.
It is of course special luck for a patient to meet a good doctor, but because the operation costs a lot of money and the family is not able to get it together for a while, everyone is a little anxious.
Later, I heard from experts in the hospital that there is a large hospital in Shanghai that is leading the country in the treatment of heart diseases, and they are also charitable. They will help some congenital disabled or poor patients to perform operations for free every year.
The family members were very excited when they heard the news, but the experts immediately said that there are few free places, and most people can't get them. However, he is still willing to try to see if some fees can be waived.
After a lot of efforts, the free quota was finally won. The Shanghai hospital called to send the patient there.
So, surrounded by a family, the patient was finally sent to Shanghai.
I happened to be studying in Shanghai. My mother called and hoped that I could visit it. So, I took the subway three times and finally got to the hospital.
The geographical location of the hospital is very remote, and the lobby is relatively empty. I think there are not many cardiac patients. But the hospital’s environment is very good, and the sanitary conditions are also first-rate. My sister’s mother-in-law shares the same ward with two other patients. One of the two patients is from Hong Kong and the other is from Beijing. It seems that the economic conditions are very good.
Because it is a heart disease, everyone is a little worried, the air pressure in the ward is also low, but because of the care for the patient, everyone still try not to show it, and often deliberately find some relaxing topics, talk about children, talk about gossip , Talking about eating and drinking.
Because the other two have no financial burden, they often talk about money.
For example, the husband of a patient said that his family’s monthly expenses have never been less than 600,000.Hearing this, the faces of my sister's family were shocked except for shock.
They are very worried about the next operation fee, and they are very worried about the doctor coming to urge the payment, because even in the preparation period of the operation, the cost will cost one to two thousand a day.
My sister's father-in-law has seen some worlds and has a lot of skills. He asked people early and knew that the so-called exemption is also a bit of a potential rule. If the conditions are slightly better, you can exempt 10,000 yuan; the conditions are poor. For some, up to 30,000 or 40,000 can be exempted.
In order to fight for more exemption, they had to act very difficult. In fact, they did not need to express themselves, because the real situation at home was originally a bit difficult. Although my sister's father-in-law wanted to save face, he still chose to compromise when faced with a large unfamiliar city and high medical expenses.
So when the doctor walked to his wife’s bed and asked him for the operation fee, he immediately picked up the bag and said:
"We are going home, we are dead, we have no money to treat."
The doctor Seeing that he had lifted the patient into a wheelchair, he was about to exit the ward, he immediately stopped him and said, "You must not go. The patient's body cannot withstand the toss. You can stay here first, and I will apply for you.
The doctor looks very approachable, and his tone of voice is not high or low.
I think, in his eyes, he probably really thinks that "rescuing the dead and healing the wounded" is the sacred duty of doctors, and "seeing death but not saving", watching a patient who could be cured, his condition deteriorated in his own hands. It's a shame.
His kindness is not disguised, it is something everyone can see.
So, when he hurried to apply, my sister's family had to stay in the ward, waiting for his news.
His good news has finally come, he said that he can reduce the amount, about 30,000 yuan.
Hearing his news, the family was very excited, but they didn't dare to speak up.The time for the operation was quickly set, in the morning of the next day, because the benevolent doctor happened to be the chief surgeon, and the family was relieved.
But even so, when the family members signed the signature, the family's face was still heavy, because the doctor said: "The success rate of this operation is very high, but everyone's physical fitness is different, so... …"
The time for the operation finally came. The family sent the patient to the door of the operating room, without saying anything special, just quietly watching the patient being pushed forward. The operation time is close to three hours.
During those three hours, the time seems to be very long, because that time is a matter of life and death for the person undergoing surgery.
My sister's father-in-law was originally a lively person, but for three hours, he had been sitting on the chair at the door of the operating room, motionless.
It wasn't until the doctor in another ward walked out and reported an unfortunate news to the patient's family. The relatives around him cried into a ball, and he suddenly collapsed on a chair and lay down for a long time.
The operation was finally over. The doctor walked out in relief. A group of people gathered around. The news was that the operation was a success.
As a result, the patient was quickly pushed into the intensive care unit, and the family's hanging heart was finally let go. So I decided to go out for a good meal and celebrate.
Watching your relatives pass by the gate of ghosts, you can understand that mood.
On the way to the restaurant, everyone's footsteps were light, as if they had won a battle, and when they arrived at the dinner table, everyone raised their cups, stupefied as if they drank the boiled water out of Moutai.
After coming out of the intensive care unit, the patient stayed in the hospital for a few days, and was finally transferred to the hospital in his hometown. Soon after the doctor agreed, he could go home and recuperate.
Nowadays, although my sister's mother-in-law can't do heavy work, she leads her life very well. Without that trip to Shanghai, without the kind-hearted doctor, everything would be different.
The doctor, I don’t think my sister’s family can call out his full name,But because of him, the hospital where he is located, the Shanghai where the hospital is located, and the profession of a doctor.
In their hearts, as long as they think of it, they are warm.
