Chapter 1148 At Least I Tried
"Nurse, where is Doctor Wang from earlier?"
In the CT room, Gong Xinmei sat up from the scanning bed, turned her head to look at the internal operating room where Wang Defa was just now, and did not see him, so she felt a little panicked.
"Auntie, we don't have many imaging films left. Doctor Wang may have gone to the equipment department to get some materials! After you finish the examination, just wait in the corridor for a while!"
The nurse helped her out of bed, put on her shoes, and sent her out. After returning, she hurried back to the operating room and asked in surprise, "Doctor Han, what's wrong with this aunt? Why are there some strange masses in her lungs, liver, and other organs?"
Han Jianjun, director of the Imaging Department, was still looking at Gong Xinmei's chest X-ray on the instrument with a serious look on his face.
The imaging department, like the emergency department, has very high requirements for doctors. After the X-ray comes out, they must first analyze the patient's images. The basic judgments they make can help various departments to consider the patient's condition.
In imaging, Li Xiangnan can be said to be the master of this general practitioner. After becoming the director of the imaging department, Han Jianjun has been learning knowledge in this area from Li Xiangnan and Fang Yu.
With theoretical knowledge and practice, his attainments in imaging have already approached Li Xiangnan.
Although he was unfamiliar with Gong Xinmei's performance on the X-ray, he did not forget the key points that Li Xiangnan had emphasized!
"This is liver cancer metastasis to the lungs, bones, lymph nodes, and adrenal glands! The situation is quite serious!"
“Liver cancer?”
Hearing this, the young nurse and the other medical staff in the room were all stunned.
After working at Nianwei Hospital for so long, this was the first time they helped the hospital confirm a case of cancer through imaging. For a moment, everyone was overwhelmed with unspeakable emotions.
The nurse's eyes were red as she looked at the medical record issued by Dr. Wang Defa. "Doctor Han, she is only 43 years old!"
Han Jianjun sighed and looked through the window of the operating room at the scanning bed where Gong Xinmei had just been lying. "Didn't you notice that this Aunt Gong looks more than ten years older than her age?"
Everyone thought of Gong Xinmei they had just seen, with her head full of black and white silver hair, her haggard and slightly hunched figure, and they couldn't imagine what she had gone through over the years.
"Did Vice President Wang go to see the president?" Han Jianjun asked again.
"Yes! I didn't tell Gong Xinmei!"
Han Jianjun sighed again and said nothing, "Next one!"
……
At this time, an urgent consultation was being held in the office.
Lei Jin from the emergency department, Wang Qi from the surgery department, and Shi Fang and Shi from the internal medicine department sat around and passed around looking at the CT scan.
Wang Defa held the teacup and said nothing.
Li Xiangnan stood in front of the window smoking.
"Tell me, do you have any ideas?"
Seeing that Li Xiangnan was thinking about the problem, Wang Defa took the initiative to assume the role of go-between. He put the X-ray film on the table and began to throw out ideas, "Let me first tell you my opinion! I think Aunt Gong's disease is not contracted overnight, and it can't be cured overnight! But overall, we still have to be more objective. Although our hospital has no precedent for treating cancer, there are already teams in China that are studying cancer. We can go and ask and find out! This is not only for Aunt Gong, but also for our own hospital to have a basic understanding of the construction of the oncology department..."
"Defa! It's cancer!"
Hearing Wang Defa pause, Shi Fang turned and looked at him.
"I know it's cancer!" Wang Defa nodded.
"This can't be cured!" Shi Fang frowned and said, "I'm not trying to refute you, I'm just stating the facts!"
"..." Wang Defa clenched his fists, holding his breath in his throat for a long time before exhaling, and took a breath, "I know this too!"
Lei Jin and Wang Qi looked at each other and said nothing.
Instead, Shi Sijun at the side spoke up, "If Aunt Gong is like this, does that mean that the worst result is that she won't live for three months, and her 19-year-old son will soon lose his mother?"
This is what everyone is most worried about at the moment, and it is also the worst outcome of the current situation.
Although they had never met Ge Dongxu, they could not help but shed tears of sympathy after listening to Defa's description of the Ge family's tragic situation.
Now that Gong Xinmei's condition has deteriorated to this extent, it has almost become a fact that Ge Dongxu has lost the second most important person in his life!
They couldn't imagine, given Ge Dongxu's current mental state, what a blow he would suffer if Gong Xinmei, the mother who had loved him all his life, also passed away!
Gong Xinmei's cancer is in the most advanced stage, which is the unanimous conclusion reached by everyone after looking at the X-ray film.
Even with the technological level of Nianwei Hospital, it was not possible to save her, not to mention those hospitals that were not equipped with CT scanners and could not accurately locate cancer cells.
Everyone turned to look at Li Xiangnan, who had been silent and just smoking from beginning to end.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Li Xiangnan put out the cigarette in the ashtray and turned around to look at everyone.
There was no flicker in his eyes, nor any hesitation.
"Fourth brother, do a puncture biopsy on Aunt Gong and send the specimen to the biology department laboratory of our school. Let them do cell characterization directly to determine the spread of cancer cells! Take samples from the liver, lungs, bones, and lymph nodes!"
"Brother Lei, Fang Yu knows a lot of people. Ask him to contact the Tianjin-Hong Kong People's Hospital and the Peking Union Medical College Hospital, which have established oncology departments in China. If necessary, invite experts for consultation! Ask Old Fang to bring all of Aunt Gong's films!"
Having said that, Li Xiangnan paused and looked at his companions who had stood up.
"I know that everyone is not optimistic about Aunt Gong's condition. I am not a god, so I can't say anything wrong at this time! But, please don't give up on a living life until the last moment! What's more, Aunt Gong's situation is very special now. She has two lives on her shoulders!"
He squeezed Shi Sijun's shoulder, pressed Lei Jin's arm, and said frankly: "If we try our best and find that we are still powerless, then let Aunt Gong spend the remaining three months of her life well!"
"Then her son Ge Dongxu..." Shi Sijun scratched his head. He had a natural sympathy for this child whom he had never met.
Li Xiangnan grabbed his coat and walked out. "So, we can't waste any day now. Every day is precious to Aunt Gong and Ge Dongxu! Let's do our part!"
"Where are you going?" Lei Jin asked immediately.
"Please arrange a ward for Aunt Gong and her family! Defa and I will take the child to the hospital!"
Wang Qi was surprised and asked, "How can this work? That child hasn't left his room for ten years!"
Li Xiangnan said calmly: "That child has felt the greatest malice in the world. I think only the greatest kindness in the world can influence him! I think it can work!"
