Chapter 1160 Xiao Li, I've had enough of living
"Auntie, help me put some fire on the fire, and give me two pounds of beef! Do you have any liquor?"
On the roadside, Song Zimo was buying things in front of a breakfast shop.
"Yes, how much liquor do you want? How much Erguotou do you want that was just out of the pot this morning?" The shop owner greeted Song Zimo warmly.
"Come on a pound!"
"Got it!"
Song Zimo took out the food coupons and money from his pocket. Just as he handed out the two receipts, he turned his head and saw Li Xiangnan and Yang Weidong flashing past on the street. Seeing their anxious looks, his heart trembled and he jumped on his bicycle and ran away.
"Hey, hey, hey, boss, you didn't take the food!" The shop owner chased out and shouted loudly.
Song Zimo turned the car around, took the thing in his hand in a casual manner, hung it on the handlebars, and ran away without looking back.
"Hey, this boss is really good!"
Song Zimo rushed forward, stood up and pedaled, and soon caught up with Li Xiangnan and Yang Weidong who were rushing to the Yanjing Veteran Cadre Sanatorium. He happened to meet Zhou Yuejin and shouted from behind: "Brother Nan, Brother Dong, what happened?"
"The sanatorium called! Defa and Brother Xiao Zhang have already rushed over!" Yang Weidong said with a grunt.
Song Zimo frowned, looked at Li Xiangnan's expression, and his heart sank again. He couldn't help but speed up a little, "Then we have to go faster!"
The sanatorium for veteran cadres was located in Minwang South Hutong, not far from Nanluoguxiang. The four of them rode at their best speed and arrived there in just ten minutes.
"Zimo, lock the car. Weidong, let's go to the rehabilitation center first!"
As soon as the car stopped in front of the building, Li Xiangnan jumped out of the car, threw the car to the ground, and rushed directly into the building.
Yang Weidong was not to be outdone. Before the car fell over, he stood steadily on the steps, pulled Zhou Yuejin and Li Xiangnan and ran into the building.
Song Zimo stretched out his hands to hold up the two cars, quickly pushed the iron bar locks of the cars one by one, took out the keys, and rushed in hurriedly with the net bag.
Li Xiangnan had been here several times with Defa on Sundays and knew the layout inside.
At the back of the sanatorium is the accommodation area, and at the front is the rehabilitation building. The entire building is arranged in a U-shape, and the first floor is equipped with functional departments similar to those in a hospital, which are even more complete than those in a machine repair shop.
The second floor is the rehabilitation training center for veteran cadres.
The third floor is the operating rooms, and the fourth floor is the hospital's offices, conference rooms and other places.
Li Xiangnan rushed to the third floor without hesitation. Standing in the corridor, he looked around and saw Wang Defa waiting outside the operating room.
"Defa!" he shouted and rushed over, asking anxiously, "How is the old man?"
Wang Defa clasped his hands tightly together between his knees and shook his head silently.
Zhang Jingyang on the side sighed, "The nurse said, it's still the same..."
"Another stroke?" Li Xiangnan's heart skipped a beat.
When he followed Defa to see Mr. Wang before, he knew that the 86-year-old man had always had numbness in the lower half of his body and symptoms of ischemic stroke in his brain, so he had been sitting in a wheelchair.
At such an old age, any surgery would carry huge risks. Neither the nursing home nor Defa dared to perform any major surgery on the old man easily, and they could only use drugs to maintain his daily life.
I didn't expect this to happen again!
"Hoo, hoo, Fatty! What's up?"
Song Zimo ran up with a very steady breath. He put the things on the bench, squatted down and asked Defa.
“……”Wang Defa still shook his head and didn’t want to talk much.
"When the nurse went to make rounds in the morning, she had to talk to the old man as usual. But something went wrong while they were talking. The old man couldn't answer, so he was quickly pushed to the operating room!" Zhang Jingyang told everyone the information he had heard.
Hearing this, everyone's heart tightened.
They looked at the silent Defa and felt deeply distressed unconsciously.
Mr. Wang is Defa’s last relative in this world.
If the old man passed away, he would really be alone.
Even the strong Li Xiangnan couldn't help but tear up when he thought of this situation.
When Tan Qianli was treated before, he had an ischemic stroke and problems with the basilar spine. He had a crooked mouth, unclear speech, and blurred consciousness.
Mr. Tan is in the early stages of the disease and is not very old, only about sixty years old, while Mr. Wang's condition is much more serious than Tan Qianli's and he is older.
Judging from Zhang Jingyang’s description just now, Mr. Wang is likely still in a coma caused by hemorrhagic stroke.
As the saying goes, don't let a man of seventy stay overnight, don't let a man of eighty stay for a meal, and don't let a man of ninety stay to sit with him. When you are old, visiting someone else's home carries a huge risk.
At the age of eighty-six, any surgery he undergoes is fraught with huge risks!
But if he doesn't do it, how long can the old man last?
Are we just going to watch him die of this disease?
Whenever he visited Grandpa Wang, Li Xiangnan felt conflicted. He couldn't bear to see the old man suffer from illness, and he also couldn't bear to see his good brother facing the situation where he was the only one left in the family.
For two whole hours, everyone spent their time in hesitation and worry.
"Fat brother, are you hungry? I bought some grilled beef. Would you like to eat some?"
Song Zimo took the Erguotou aside and reminded Defa to eat.
Wang Defa still shook his head, buried his head in his knees, and said nothing.
Seeing that he was indifferent, Song Zimo raised his head and looked at Li Xiangnan.
"Leave it there! He can't eat it!" Li Xiangnan sighed.
pat!
The lights in the operating room suddenly went out.
Everyone stood up.
As soon as the door opened, Wang Defa rushed over, grabbed the leading doctor and shouted, "Uncle Ge, how is my grandfather?"
"He fell into a coma due to lack of oxygen, but he recovered after receiving oxygen! I was afraid it was an ischemic stroke, so I gave him acupuncture and massage! After an hour of observation, his condition is now stable! Fortunately, it's okay!"
After hearing this, everyone finally felt relieved.
"Thank you, thank you Uncle Ge!" Wang Defa cried with joy, and his calves were shaking as he held on to the door frame.
"Xiao Wang!" Doctor Ge glanced at Wang Defa, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally pointed at the bed and said, "Go see Captain Wang!"
"Hey!" Wang Defa nodded quickly and rushed in without saying anything.
"Doctor Ge, Mr. Wang..." Li Xiangnan opened his mouth.
"Oh!" Dr. Ge shook his head silently and left with the nurse.
Everyone looked at each other, but everyone understood what Dr. Ge's attitude meant.
Mr. Wang, I’m afraid you don’t have much time left.
Half an hour later, the door of the operating room opened, and Wang Defa walked out with red eyes, shouting, "Xiao Li, Grandpa wants to see you again!"
“……” Li Xiangnan quickly stood up and walked over quickly.
Wang Defa waited for him to enter, then gently closed the door and walked out.
In the room, only Li Xiangnan and a lonely bed were left.
He walked quickly to the bed and saw that the old man was in good spirits with his eyes open and a warm smile on his face.
Old Wang took off the oxygen mask and said with a smile: "Xiao Li, I've lived enough..."
"..."
Hearing this, Li Xiangnan was shocked and tears silently flowed down his cheeks.
"I don't have much time left. I have a few things to tell you, okay?"
