University Doctor and His Fragile Patients-Chapter 253 - 221: Heart Failure—You Want Me to Reverse Fate with Acupuncture?

When Chen Mu was previously in the emergency department, he hardly ever needed to deal with comforting patients' families.

This was usually handled by nurses.

As for the subsequent time at Hai City University Hospital.

If he really encountered some particularly troublesome parents of students, Chen Mu would usually just send them to the principal's office.

"I'm just a school doctor, if you have any demands, communicate with those who have authority."

He truly doesn't know how to console people.

Moreover...

He is a doctor.

If Chen Mu weren't a doctor, he could simply pat Che Dahai on the shoulder.

And say a few comforting words.

For instance...

"Don't worry, Che Liang will definitely get through this."

Or perhaps...

"Hospitals use 'Critical Illness Notices' to scare people, Che Liang has good fortune from heaven!"

From Chen Mu's professional standpoint.

Even words of comfort that seem pointless are hard to say.

What he can do.

Is just to stay by Che Dahai's side.

If Che Dahai becomes overly saddened by his son's situation and faints from crying in the hospital.

He could stick his head out from the stairwell corridor and shout, "Doctor, someone has fainted here! Come save them!"

—

"What Dr. Chen meant to say was that even if Che Liang miraculously survives, living independently in the future might still be difficult?"

Chen Mu: "He cannot exert himself at all, organ failure is generally irreversible."

"It can be said that even if he is saved, his physical functions won't be much different from those of an elderly person in their seventies or eighties."

In Che Dahai's mind.

An image of an elderly man he met in the park some time ago suddenly appeared.

Later, when chatting with the elder, the man said he was over eighty years old.

But the old man's body appeared much healthier than many people in their twenties or thirties.

Such thoughts.

Just emerged in Che Dahai's mind.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head, what kind of dream was he having here?

Right now.

Not to mention Che Liang's subsequent physical condition being half as good as that elderly man's.

The question of whether the child can survive now.

Could be quite a tricky issue.

Che Dahai raised his head, "Dr. Chen, even if this child becomes paralyzed in the future, I still want him to survive."

"People need to live on, to have a chance at a miracle."

Chen Mu: "Che Liang's condition is extremely dangerous."

"No matter how bad the situation is afterward, I hope that as family members, you won't interfere with the normal medical process."

Once in the hospital emergency department.

Chen Mu also encountered some patients who could have been saved initially.

Because their families obstinately stopped the attending doctor from seeing other patients, insisting on asking less urgent questions instead.

Such as.

Why are the charges so expensive?

The glucose the doctors drink—is that coming out of our pockets?

In even more extreme cases.

They would obstruct the doctor from administering medication, resulting in treatment delays and the patient's death.

Chen Mu: "Emergency clinical care is a race against time."

"For any concerns the family may have, there is a medical department where you can raise them."

Che Dahai nodded.

He looked noticeably older than one or two hours ago.

Che Dahai: "Dr. Chen, I understand what you're saying."

"When I go back later, I will explain it clearly to the child's mother; no matter what, as a couple, we absolutely won't disturb the normal medical process."

"It's just..."

Che Dahai looked at Chen Mu, his gaze still holding a glimmer of hope.

"Dr. Chen, back to my earlier question."

"From a traditional Chinese medicine perspective, isn't there any hope for my son?"

Chen Mu: "At present, Che Liang has a higher survival rate staying here."

Che Dahai nodded: "Dr. Chen, I have other questions to consult."

"Those doctors are busy consulting over my son, can I ask you first?"

Chen Mu nodded: "Of course, I'm here to provide reassurance to the student's parents."

Not quite sure when Secretary Lu will arrive.

Che Dahai: "If..."

"Dr. Chen, I mean if, my son miraculously survives..."

"Can his body be nurtured back from a traditional Chinese medical perspective?"

Chen Mu pondered for a moment.

He spoke: "If I tell you now that he could recover to the level of a normal person, then I'm definitely lying to you."

"But if down the line, the hospital says the patient's treatment is almost done, and you're discharged."

"You can send the patient to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital for rehabilitation acupuncture."

Che Dahai's gaze never left Chen Mu: "Dr. Chen, what I mean is, it's said online that your acupuncture skills are highly rated..."

"My son is also a student at Hai City University, could we ask you..."

Chen Mu: "Are you suggesting that I become your son's attending doctor for his future acupuncture rehabilitation?"

Che Dahai nodded: "Dr. Chen, or you could quit to become my son's personal doctor, and I assure you, the salary would be double what you earn now!"

Chen Mu almost laughed out of exasperation, "I'm a school doctor, I can't neglect all the students of a school to just focus on Che Liang alone."

"Moreover, even during Che Liang's rehabilitation acupuncture period, my advice is for you to have him hospitalized at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."

Just as Che Dahai was about to say something more.

Chen Mu suddenly heard frantic footsteps coming from outside.

He saw a group in white coats running past in haste.

Chen Mu's expression changed, he turned to Che Dahai and said, "Something might have happened to Che Liang!"

Immediately.

He didn't pay much attention to how Che Dahai himself felt.
