Boundless benevolence

Chapter 16 16 - Photos

With the discharge of this group of African children, the camp has completed another major task.Coupled with the fact that the malaria of the Diwa tribe was cured before, the reputation of Doctors Without Borders in the local area has grown day by day, and many tribes who have been watching and even resisting Doctors Without Borders have gradually accepted it. They, and even some people who live far away, will travel long distances to come here for treatment.At the same time, the relationship between the people in the MSF camp and the nearby villages has become increasingly harmonious. Some of them will come here to deliver some fresh meat or vegetables to the camp staff, and some children will come to see Something new at camp.Especially with Chu Xiao, the king of children, he not only distributes some candies to the children, but also acts as a teacher to teach the children English in his spare time, so that Du Rusong laughed that he could consider teaching in Africa after his mission.But speaking of it, the doctors in the camp really like children. Li Qian, Han Yujun, and Li Shixi were all taught by Chu Xiaola, so many children can say ridiculous things when they see them. "Nihao" in Chinese

This morning, it was rare that there were no patients in the camp. Considering that everyone had been working very hard recently, Du Rusong arranged for one person to be on duty, and let the rest of them go back to their rooms to rest.

Han Yujun returned to the rest area after explaining the previous work to Massa who was on duty. As soon as he entered the rest area, he saw Chu Xiao walking around Li Qian with a begging look on his face, while Li Qian pursed her lips Holding back a smile, he shook his head again and again.After inquiring about it, I found out that it was Chu Xiao who was greedy and begged Li Qian to cook him some Thai food, but Li Qian said that she was tired and had no ingredients, and said, "I just won't make it for you, can you cook it for me?" Nothing to do with me".Seeing the childish behavior of these two people, Han Yujun felt that it was better not to participate, so he said "Come on" to Chu Xiao, and hurried away.

Back in his hut, Han Yujun sat on the bed, but didn't feel sleepy.Although MSF's work is hard, the arrangement is very humane, and everyone will be given enough rest time.In addition, there is no means of entertainment such as TV here, and the Internet is extremely inconvenient, so everyone goes to bed early at night, and the quality of sleep is probably better than they are in their own country.Han Yujun walked around the room twice with nothing to do, thinking that he should find something to do.But what to do?

Suddenly, he thought of Li Shixi again.After the break was announced just now, everyone else went back to the living quarters, and so did Li Shixi.I don't know what he is doing now?

Han Yujun was suddenly curious.

Han Yujun walked outside Li Shixi's hut, knocked on the door politely: "Shixi, may I come in?"

"Well, please come in." Li Shixi's voice came from inside.

Han Yujun walked into Li Shixi's room. Sure enough, Li Shixi hadn't slept yet. He was sitting at the desk with a laptop on it, apparently typing.

"Tapping something?"

"Oh, it's just writing a diary." Li Shixi smiled, "I have been feeling a lot since I came to Africa. I have time to write it."

"Well, it's worth writing about." Han Yujun walked to the table and saw a SLR camera next to the laptop. He recognized that this was Li Shixi's precious camera back then.

The camera was on, and the LCD screen displayed a photo of a patient in the camp.

Han Yujun pointed to the camera with a smile: "What is in the camp? Can I take a look?"

"Oh, yes." Li Shixi nodded.

Han Yujun picked up the camera with great interest, and looked through the pictures one by one. Sure enough, all the pictures Li Shixi took were scenes in the camp. Some children waved to them when they were discharged from the hospital, and some children smiled at the camera. There are also staff who work hard, which can be said to be a full record of all aspects of the camp.

"Heh, you took a lot!" Han Yujun exclaimed in surprise.I saw Li Shixi holding the camera several times, but I didn't expect him to take so many pictures.

"Well, it's almost a thousand. There are too many things I want to take." Li Shixi smiled.

"You can hold a photography exhibition in the future, called 'Doctors Without Borders Diary'." Han Yujun joked with a smile, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he handed the camera to Li Shixi, "I like this one."

Li Shixi leaned his head over when he heard the words—it was a landscape photo of a big tree not far from the camp.The setting sun shines through the branches of the tree, giving the whole tree a golden glow.The whole picture is very simple, but the composition is reasonable, the colors are harmonious, and the gentle sense of vitality blows over the face.

"Oh, it was that evening. I thought the picture was beautiful, so I took it." Li Shixi smiled.

"This one is of a professional level," Han Yujun said with a smile, "It seems that even if you don't become a doctor, you can be a professional photographer."

For some reason, Han Yujun found that Li Shixi, who heard this compliment, not only did not show a happy expression, but his expression darkened.After a moment of silence, he showed a somewhat forced smile, and said softly, "Actually, it's because a friend taught me..."

Seeing Li Shixi's instantly lonely expression, Han Yujun immediately recalled what Li Shixi was looking for when he found out that the camera was missing.Li Shixi always showed this expression every time he was concerned with this camera or taking pictures.For a moment, Han Yujun wanted to ask Li Shixi who the owner of the camera was, but he stopped talking.

No, not yet.

Han Yujun decided to change the subject, he sighed and said, "Unfortunately, there is only such a picture of the scenery, in fact, some scenery near Du Dan is still very beautiful." Speaking of this, he suddenly slapped his head: "Ah, yes! I It seems that he promised you to take you out for a walk, right?"

"Huh?" The topic was suddenly changed, and Li Shixi was a little unresponsive.After recalling it for a while, he remembered Han Yujun's original promise.So he also smiled: "Oh, yes, then someone didn't mean what he said, and he still hasn't fulfilled his promise..."

"The conscience of heaven and earth!" Han Yujun said with an expression of "you wronged me", "You also know how busy we are recently, it's not that I don't want to take you out, it's that I really haven't found the time!" Speaking of which, he Suddenly his eyes lit up, "Hey, that's right! How about today? If there is still nothing to do this afternoon, we will ask Johnson for two hours off, and I will drive you out for a walk!"

"Huh?" Li Shixi was stunned, "Today?"

"Yes!"

Li Shixi thought about it, and thought it was not bad, so he nodded: "Okay."

Just when the two had just agreed on a plan, there was another knock on the door of Li Shixi's room, and Massa's anxious voice came from outside: "Is Dr. Li there?"

"I'm here, please come in!" Li Shixi replied.

Massa opened the door and came in, seeing Han Yujun's happy face: "It's great that you are here, Dr. Han. Dr. Shawn is looking for you. A child suddenly passed out. Shawn told you to go there quickly, saying that the situation is urgent." .”

Han Yujun and Li Shixi froze for a moment at the same time—it seemed that the planned trip was impossible again.But the two didn't complain, they immediately followed Massa and ran out quickly.

When the two came to the consulting room in the working area, Chu Xiao and Li Qian were busy, and saw a six or seven-year-old boy lying on the operating table twitching all over, and there were obvious traces of vomit at the corner of his mouth.Han Yujun quickly asked, "What's going on?"

"The kid was playing with us just now, and suddenly passed out while playing. I think he looks wrong, it doesn't look like a normal epileptic seizure, so I asked someone to call you."

Only then did Li Shixi notice that this child was a boy from a nearby village who often came to play with them.

While speaking, both of them had already put on gloves.On the side, Li Qian had already put an oxygen mask on the little boy, and quickly connected various monitors.With various indicators displayed, Li Shixi was the first to give a conclusion: "This child may have a cerebral hemorrhage!"

If it were normal, the three of them would probably notice that Li Shixi's expression was not right when he said this.However, the situation is too urgent at this moment, and no one pays attention to these details.Han Yujun yelled, "Color Doppler Ultrasound Instrument!"

The conditions in the camp are limited, and there are no CT or MRI equipment, only color Doppler ultrasound equipment can be used for emergency.The results of the examination also confirmed Li Shixi's statement that the child did have intracranial bleeding. Fortunately, the amount of bleeding was not large. After several people's first aid, the condition was finally under control.

"Judging from the brain ultrasound and the child's clinical symptoms, there is a malformed hemangioma in Denny's brain, and it was its rupture that caused Denny's coma this time." Han Yujun introduced the situation to Du Rusong, "Judging from the current situation, this The hemangioma is already on the verge of rupture, and if the surgery is not performed as soon as possible, it is likely to rupture again, and the cerebral hemorrhage will be much more serious than this time, and Denny's life may be in danger."

Du Rusong frowned.Although he is not a doctor, but following the doctors so many times, he has a basic understanding of many diseases."What are you going to do?" he asked.

"The conditions in our camp made it impossible to operate on Denny. Leslie and I wanted to send him to a hospital in the capital or Nairobi to operate on him as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll contact you." Du Rusong responded immediately.

Soon, Du Rusong contacted the hospital in Du Dan's capital and arranged for a plane to pick up Denny, accompanied by Han Yujun and Denny's mother.

"Du Dan's overall medical level is mediocre, even the capital city can't give too much hope." Du Rusong told Han Yujun, "Remember to ask the family members for their opinions and let them make a decision."

"I see."

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door, and Li Shixi walked in. Seeing Han Yujun, Li Shixi hesitated subconsciously.

"What's the matter, Leslie?"

"Oh, why don't I come over later."

"It's okay, Han and I are done talking." Du Rusong looked at Li Shixi's troubled expression and asked, "What's the matter, what do you need from me?"

Li Shixi hesitated as if he didn't want to speak, but Han Yujun saw it and immediately said, "Johnson, then I'll go out first."

"it is good."

Seeing Han Yujun go out, Li Shixi seemed slightly relieved.He looked at Du Rusong and said, "Johnson, can I accompany Denny to the capital too?"

Du Rusong was taken aback for a moment, and then he said with a little embarrassment: "Leslie, you also know that there are not many doctors in our camp. If you and Han go out, there will only be one doctor left, Shawn..."

"It's okay, I understand." Li Shixi nodded - he also thought of this result before coming.

"May I ask why you want to go?"

"No, I'm just a little worried about this child. I just asked casually if it's nothing, and I went out first."

After Li Shixi finished speaking, he quickly left the office, leaving Du Rusong at a loss.

The author has something to say: I know that brain CT or MRI should be used to check the brain, but I checked and found that the two instruments are very large, and I feel that the camp cannot afford Orz...

I saved a few beautiful pictures of Africa, but Jinjiang does not allow them to be posted, so you can go to my Weibo to see them.
