Chapter 599: I Want to Cry, But I Have No Tears

Living with the Jia family, the deaf old lady had never had enough to eat.

Li Ping'an speculated that it might be because hunger caused low blood pressure, and the excessive change in blood pressure caused the rupture of brain capillaries, resulting in blood microcirculation disorders. It might be that the trace amount of blood in the ruptured capillaries coagulated to form thrombi, causing brain vascular circulation disorders and causing cerebral stroke. It might also be that the rupture of capillaries caused local damage and led to cerebral stroke.

In short.

No matter what the reason, the deaf old lady's lower limbs are numb and have no sensation, which will cause paralysis.

Such a big incident happened that all the neighbors in the courtyard came over soon.

Liu Haizhong asked about the deaf old lady's condition and whether she could be saved.

"It's a stroke, and it's hard to cure!" Li Ping'an did not hide it from his neighbors and said in front of the deaf old lady: "At least he will be paralyzed!"

Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and others sighed.

The deaf old lady had a crooked mouth and squinting eyes. She wanted to say something but couldn't speak clearly. She mumbled and no one could understand what she said.

"Safe!" Liu Haizhong said, "Let's find a way to send her to the Sixth Hospital and notify the Jia family when they come back!"

Li Pingan nodded.

That's all it can do now.

Stroke is a very serious disease. Acupuncture can only provide gradual relief but cannot solve the problem immediately. If we want to save the deaf old lady, we need follow-up treatment.

Liu Haizhong borrowed a flatbed cart from a nearby courtyard, and Li Pingan carefully helped lift the deaf old lady onto the cart. Liu Haizhong pulled the cart in front, and several people helped push it, and together they sent the deaf old lady to the Sixth Hospital.

Carefully carrying the deaf old lady onto the hospital bed, Li Ping'an, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui discussed how to treat her.

Yan Bugui said: "The Jia family has been taking care of the old lady. The specific treatment method still needs to be heard from Jia Zhang and her daughter-in-law."

Liu Haizhong said: "I'll go back and see if the Jia family has returned. If not, I'll go to the factory cafeteria to look for them."

Everyone knows that the Jia family often carries the deaf old lady on their backs to eat in the canteen of the Zha Steel Factory.

Liu Haizhong sighed.

If the deaf old lady wasn't so hungry, how could she have gone to the Xu family to beg for food?

After Yan Bugui returned to the courtyard, he found that the Jia family members had really returned.

When they heard that the deaf old lady had a stroke and was admitted to the hospital, both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law of the Jia family were a little unhappy.

They were not worried about the deaf old lady, but about their own wallets.

but.

When Jia Zhang and Liu Yue followed Yan Bugui to the Sixth Hospital, they both figured it out.

The deaf old lady's illness is both a challenge and an opportunity.

The deaf old lady exchanged a lot of second-set RMB at that time.

Take advantage of this opportunity to take out all the money she has.

Maybe.

The Jia family is responsible for treating the deaf old lady, which not only does not cost money but also makes money.

Even the deaf old lady couldn't make it and died.

All her property will be inherited by the Jia family.

The house still has some assets.

Maybe the deaf old lady still has gold in her hands!

After the Jia family arrived at the Sixth Hospital, Li Pingan discussed the treatment plan for the deaf old lady with them.

He examined the deaf old lady.

Her condition is quite serious. She has no sensation in her lower limbs and her right hand is weak. It is very difficult to treat her.'

If in the future.

Severe stroke patients may need surgery.

Commonly used surgical methods include arterial thrombectomy, vascular stenting, endarterectomy, intracranial and extracranial vascular bypass surgery, etc. These surgeries can effectively treat different causes and conditions.

but.

Li Pingan is unable to perform these operations now. Even if he performs a craniotomy for neurosurgery, if he finds that the capillaries in the brain are ruptured, he cannot provide effective treatment. The most he can do is clean the damaged area, reduce the intracranial pressure, relieve the pressure on the nerves and blood vessels, and improve some symptoms.

As for whether other surgeries can be performed and whether it is worth the risk of having surgery and other examinations such as CT scans, the decision will be made based on the results of the examinations.

but.

Li Pingan guessed that the number of surgeries that could be performed on the deaf old lady was limited.

after all.

The deaf old lady is almost eighty years old this year.

Can she survive the complex brain surgery?

Li Ping'an estimated that the whole operation would take at least several hours, more than ten hours, or even a whole day.

Can the deaf old lady withstand it?

Even the chief surgeon, Li Ping'an, must have been exhausted. Even the slightest negligence could cause the deaf old lady to die on the operating table.

If surgery is not performed, the deaf old lady can only be given conservative treatment.

There were no thrombolytic agents in that era, but the deaf old lady could be given anticoagulants such as heparin, as well as nutritional and nerve-protecting drugs such as vitamins.

In terms of traditional Chinese medicine, Geqi Tongmai Granules can be used.

Geqi Tongmai Granules are used to treat the recovery period of stroke caused by qi deficiency and blood stasis, and can replenish qi, promote blood circulation, and unclog the meridians.

This product is a Chinese patent medicine, the main ingredients of which are Pueraria lobata, Astragalus membranaceus, Angelica sinensis, Red Peony Root and Safflower.

Li Ping'an told the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Jia family about both treatment methods.

Hearing that if they had the surgery they would have to undergo various expensive examinations, and would have to pay a high surgery fee, and the cost of postoperative medications was also not low, Liu Yue and Jia Zhang looked at each other and made a decision.

Both of them said that the deaf old lady should be given conservative treatment and just need to be given some medicine.

How can the deaf old lady, at such an old age, withstand being beaten with a knife?

It would be of no benefit to anyone if he couldn't bear it and died on the operating table.

Li Ping'an kindly reminded the deaf old lady that most of the time she would become paralyzed, and conservative treatment would only treat the symptoms and not the root cause, and some medicines would have to be taken for a long time.

Jia Zhang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, always insisted on giving the deaf old lady medicine for treatment.

Li Pingan agreed.

In fact.

He was also unsure about the surgery on the deaf old lady.

So what if various examinations were done before the operation?

Who knows what will happen after the skull is opened. If the situation is too complicated, Li Pingan might be helpless.

Li Pingan prescribed medicine for the deaf old lady and asked Liu Yue to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine.

Liu Yue felt very distressed.

After giving the medicine to the deaf old lady to take, Li Ping'an said that she could not move at all and asked the Jia family to send someone to take care of her.

This person can only be Jia Zhang.

Liu Yue has to go to work, and if it weren’t for the holidays, how would she have the time to take care of the deaf old lady.

Neighbors such as Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were all there, so Jia Zhang didn't dare to say that she didn't want to, so she could only agree.

After dealing with the deaf old lady, Li Pingan, Liu Haizhong and others returned to the courtyard together.

When they arrived at Li's house, Xu and Qin Huairu asked about the deaf old lady's condition, and Li Ping'an told them everything.

Xu sighed and said, "When the deaf old lady was in good health, the Jia family didn't like her very much. Now she is paralyzed. You can imagine her future life!"

Neither Li Ping'an nor Qin Huairu responded.

They all knew that the Jia family had no relationship with Old Lady Long, and the only reason they agreed to take care of her was because they were attracted by the deaf old lady's wealth.

How well can you take care of her?

The deaf old lady only stayed in the Sixth Hospital for three days. In addition to taking medicine, Li Ping'an also gave her acupuncture every day.

just.

Over time, these methods would not work, and the deaf old lady's condition did not seem to improve much.

Jia Zhang was anxious.

She found Li Pingan and said she wanted to discharge the deaf old lady from the hospital.

She has to take medicine every day in the ward anyway, so why not take her home to save some money?

As for acupuncture.

Li Ping'an can give acupuncture to the deaf old lady when he goes home every day.

Jia Zhang is a very cunning guy.

The medicine cost is fine.

If the deaf old lady is discharged from the hospital, Li Ping'an will go to their home for acupuncture, but the Jia family will not pay Li Ping'an for the consultation.

The deaf old lady's disease cannot be cured and she must take long-term medication. The Jia family wanted to take her out of the hospital and Li Ping'an did not refuse.

Jia Zhang asked Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui to help take the deaf old lady home.

Every once in a while Li Ping'an would go to the deaf old lady for acupuncture.

at first.

The Jia family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were still willing to take care of the deaf old lady, but after less than half a month they became impatient.

especially.

Jia Zhang searched the deaf old lady's house but couldn't find any place to hide the money and tickets.

The guy started to mutter.

When exchanging the second set of RMB, the neighbors saw the deaf old lady exchange several thousand yuan!

It's only been a few years. Could it be that the deaf old lady has squandered all her family fortune?

Jia Zhang remembered that there was a time when this old guy ate in the cafeteria every day, and maybe he even gave some money to Yi Zhonghai and Auntie.

It is not impossible that the deaf old lady has no money!

Jia Zhang started to have some ideas.

The two rooms of the deaf old lady are only worth a few hundred dollars.

If the deaf old lady lived too long, the Jia family would have to take care of her for ten or eight years or even longer, which would not be worth it.

The deaf old lady needs someone to take care of her urination and defecation.

Liu Yue didn't care.

The responsibility of taking care of the deaf old lady fell on Jia Zhang. How could she be willing?

Had dinner.

When Li Ping'an was taking Qin Huairu and the two children back to the hospital's family quarters, they were stopped by Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang was washing dishes by the sink. When she saw Li Ping'an and his family, she immediately stopped what she was doing and asked, "Ping'an, wait a minute. I want to ask you something!"

Li Pingan stopped and said, "What do you want to ask?"

He guessed that this guy just wanted to ask about the deaf old lady's condition.

really.

Jia Zhang spoke.

She did want to ask about the deaf old lady's condition, but her idea was different from what Li Pingan had in mind.

Jia Zhang directly asked the deaf old lady how long she could hold on, and implicitly asked how long she could live.

How long can a deaf old lady live?

Li Pingan really couldn't be sure.

In his impression, the deaf old ladies in TV dramas have a very long life and may not die for several years or even more than ten years.

but.

The deaf old lady's life span will definitely be shortened in her current condition.

Li Pingan thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. Although she is paralyzed, if she has no other problems, she can live for a few more years or even ten years. Don't worry, she won't die for a while!"

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and complained in her heart, could it be that Li Ping'an couldn't understand what she meant?

She was not worried about the deaf old lady's life being in danger but was worried that she would live too long!

After chatting with Jia Zhang for a while, Li Pingan and his friends left the courtyard.

When they arrived at the hospital's family compound, the two children watched TV for a while and then went back to their rooms to sleep. Qin Huairu said, "I think Jia Zhang is not worried about the deaf old lady. She hopes that she will die soon!"

"Except for paralysis, I didn't find any other problems with the deaf old lady!" Li Pingan said, "But if her condition worsens further, she might die one day!"
