Chapter 231 Leukemia

"Pa-ta..." Song Rui's phone fell to the ground, and Teacher Li's voice came from the receiver...

Song Rui knelt down on the ground, holding his head and crying bitterly.

Yuan Ziqiu stood aside and accompanied Song Rui, waiting for his mood to stabilize.

"I want to go home!" Song Rui looked at Yuan Ziqiu with red eyes from crying.

"I'll be with you!" Yuan Ziqiu stared at Song Rui, he was not at ease in Song Rui's state.

Song Rui is from the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and it takes several hours to travel from the imperial capital to the Shanghai Stock Exchange even by plane.

But Song Rui didn't want to delay for almost a second, he just wanted to return to his sister in an instant.

Thinking that her sister was seriously ill and now lying in the ICU bed, Song Rui felt very uncomfortable.

Electrocardiogram recording monitor, cardiac output measuring instrument, defibrillator, body meal synchronous counterpulsation instrument, multi-functional ventilator, blood gas analyzer, pulmonary function test instrument, oxygen saturation monitor, renal function monitoring and treatment instrument, small blood Dialysis machine, peritoneal dialysis equipment, urine specific gravity meter, intracranial pressure monitor, electroencephalograph, cerebral blood flow graph, transcranial Doppler...

Scary to think about!
"Old Song, don't worry. Maybe there is no big problem." Yuan Ziqiu enlightened Song Rui.

Song Rui became excited all of a sudden, and he yelled at Yuan Ziqiu: "Can you suspend school for a small problem? Can you pass out for a small problem? She is my sister, I don't worry about anyone else!"

Yuan Ziqiu directly grabbed Song Rui's shoulder and shook it vigorously a few times, "Song Rui, can you calm me down! Your sister is sick, and I am also very worried. But what's the use of worrying? Can you Fly back now!"

Song Rui finally regained his composure under Yuan Ziqiu's scolding, "Thank you, Ziqiu."

Seeing Song Rui sitting lonely in a corner of the waiting hall, Yuan Ziqiu felt a little distressed.

"Do you know, my sister is my most important person..." Hearing Song Rui speak, Yuan Ziqiu stood beside him and listened quietly to what he said.

"When I was young, my parents were very busy at work. They didn't have time to care about us. Every night, my sister and I waited for them to come back together."

"You know what? I'm afraid of thunder! Isn't that ridiculous?"

"In the movie, my brother hugs his sister and says don't be afraid, I will protect you. But every time, my sister tells me, brother, don't be afraid. But in fact, she is also afraid..."

As he spoke, Song Rui's tears began to flow down his cheeks.

Song Rui said a lot, all about his sister.There are many that Yuan Ziqiu understands, and there are many that he does not know.

"She doesn't like the smell of disinfectant very much. She must be very unhappy now that she has to stay in the hospital."

…………

Outside the ward of the Hematology Department of Zhongshan Hospital in Shanghai, Song Rui stood blankly outside the ward, not daring to go in.

leukemia!
Song Rui had already thought of many bad endings on the way back, but when he actually faced it, he still couldn't accept it!
Leukemia, also known as blood cancer, is a malignant and proliferative lesion of hematopoietic stem cells, and it is a type of abnormal clonal disease of hematopoietic stem cells.

No matter what kind of disease it is, as long as it is associated with the word cancer, it is a very serious disease.

Leukemia is characterized by malignant and unlimited proliferation of leukemia cells in bone marrow and other hematopoietic tissues, infiltrating various tissues and organs throughout the body, and producing different symptoms; surrounding blood cells have quantitative and qualitative changes.Every day, the bone marrow produces tens of billions of new blood cells, most of which are red blood cells.People with leukemia produce more white blood cells than they actually need, and most of them are immature, immature cells that live longer than normal.Although these white blood cells are abundant, they cannot fight infection like normal white blood cells.The increase of this kind of white blood cells in the body will directly affect the function of some important organs and affect the production of normal healthy blood cells.Due to the malignant proliferation of tumor cells, the production of red blood cells and platelets to stop bleeding is inhibited, and even there are not enough normal white blood cells to fight infection, so it is very easy to be injured, hemorrhage, and infected.

Due to the complexity of leukemia classification and prognostic stratification, there is no one-size-fits-all treatment method, and treatment plans need to be formulated in combination with detailed classification and prognostic stratification.

At present, there are mainly the following types of treatment methods: chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, stem cell transplantation, etc.

To put it simply, first chemotherapy, then bone marrow transplantation, and then rehabilitation treatment.

Through reasonable comprehensive treatment, the prognosis of leukemia has been greatly improved, and a considerable number of patients can be cured or stabilized for a long time. The era when leukemia was an "incurable disease" has passed.

But even if leukemia can be cured, the expensive medical expenses cannot be afforded by ordinary families like Song Rui.

"Xiao Rui, it's not that we don't want to tell you. It's just because we don't want you to worry too."

Looking at his sister's thin body, Song Rui didn't say anything, just stood there quietly.

He had learned that his sister had already reached the advanced stage of leukemia.

In the late stage, we can only rely on stem cell transplantation, which requires about 30W to 50W, and the cure rate is about 50%.

However, his parents have spent all their savings for the early treatment of his younger sister, and they will have to sell the house if they undergo a bone marrow transplant.

In fact, the treatment of leukemia is not as difficult as people imagine, as long as it is a hospital at or above the provincial level, it is very good.The cost of treating leukemia is very high. Even without bone marrow transplantation, only chemotherapy and corresponding supportive care are very expensive, and several 10 yuan is necessary.

However, it is obvious that Song Rui's parents can no longer afford so much money.

Because leukemia is a malignant disease of the blood system, the main treatment is chemotherapy, and the dosage is quite high. One chemotherapy is about three or four thousand, and chemotherapy is often required.

The remission rate of leukemia chemotherapy is high, but the remission time is short, and it is prone to rapid change and relapse.

And if it was a bone marrow transplant, the money spent would be unimaginable to Song Rui.

The first is to find a matching bone marrow.For example, the bone marrow of relatives and friends, and voluntary donors registered in the China Bone Marrow Bank.After finding the matching bone marrow, it also depends on the patient's physical condition. Whether he is suitable for bone marrow transplantation must be in a relatively stable period after chemotherapy.Vital signs are good.Bone marrow transplantation is a stage in which the whole body's immune system is suppressed.Therefore, after the transplantation, the patient has to stay in the ICU and the laminar flow disinfection room for a dangerous period, and after the rejection period, the patient is discharged according to the patient's condition.If all goes well, the cost will be more than 30 yuan, excluding the cost of immunosuppressants that may be taken for life in the future.

I need money!

Song Rui roared inwardly!
