In the office, Lu Jie looked at Chen Cang opposite and didn''t speak for a long time.
Half a ring
Lu Jie''s voice was trembling. She carefully wanted to speak, but she opened her mouth, but she didn''t say it for a long time.
She dared not ask or say
"Doctor, orange... She..."
She felt that she had been living carefully and did not dare to be bold!
But why did God tease her so much?
Since my husband left, the pillars of this family have collapsed!
That mountain is the support and courage of the whole family. The mountain is gone... They seem to have lost all their support.
When her husband was there, she felt that even if the sky fell, the man could resist it!
But now, she feels she can''t bear any blow.
But she looked at the child and knew that she should try to be strong, because there was someone more fragile and caring than her waiting for her!
After a year or two, they were dependent on each other and got used to the life of going out early and returning home late. She quit her overtime job, bought a Geely and became one of tens of millions of didi drivers.
Every morning, I accompanied the child to have breakfast, sent her to school, and then began to work. At noon, I waited for her to eat after school, and then went home in the afternoon.
Although they are hard, they are also happy. Occasionally, the child sits with her in the car and listens to her share interesting stories about the school. For Lu Jie, it is all of life.
However, the sudden blow made Lu Jie''s heart tremble!
Why?
For what?
She wants to question loudly!
But I know it won''t help.
With a sigh, Lu Jie summoned up her courage and asked Chen Cang about her child''s condition.
"Dr. Chen, you say orange is a heart malformation, but why haven''t you done anything for so many years?"
Chen Cang explained: "this situation is called congenital correction of transposition of great arteries!
What do you mean? That is to say, the human body actually has a powerful compensatory function. After congenital malformation, the heart will try to adapt to this malformation and form a new circulatory system!
Now she belongs to the kind of heart malformation in which the connection between atrium and ventricle and between ventricle and great artery is inconsistent. "
Chen Cang took out the paper and tried to give Lu Jie a simple description of the function of the heart.
Even if Lu Jie doesn''t understand, she must understand!
She knows that she must understand the child and better help her recover.
Chen Cang explained: "the heart pumps blood from the ventricle to the great artery, and then the venous blood flows back to the atrium. The blood returns to the ventricle from the atrium again, so it circulates."
"Therefore, the inconsistent connection between atrium and ventricle and between ventricle and great artery leads to normal and series systemic and pulmonary circulation pathways.
Systemic venous blood flows into the right atrium, through the mitral valve and left ventricle to the pulmonary artery; pulmonary venous blood flows into the left atrium, through the tricuspid valve and right ventricle to the aorta!
So!
This is physiologically corrected, so this deformity is also called physiologically corrected transposition of the great arteries. "
Looking at Lu Jie a little confused, Chen Cang simply said: "in fact, because of this deformity, the heart has taken a special way to form a new pathway to make the heart work normally."
Lu Jie Listened: "well... Isn''t the heart working normally?"
Chen Cang shook his head: "this is just a temporary way. To put it bluntly, with age, this will aggravate heart damage. There will be chest tightness in the early stage. The main reason is that the capacity overload of the right ventricle will cause heartache. Slowly, there will be right heart failure, and congestive heart failure in the late stage. The prognosis is very poor!"
"To put it simply, oranges are still small, but with age, their health will get worse and worse. Generally speaking, their life expectancy will not exceed 20 to 30 years old!"
In a word, Lu Jie was almost in a trance!
Chen Cang said: "of course, there are exceptions, but... You know, we can''t entrust our hope to exceptions. Now that we are in orange state, my suggestion is to complete the operation as soon as possible."
Lu Jie heard that orange can only live to about 20 years old. Suddenly, there was a thunder in her mind!
It seems to crush her fragile soul!
Chen Cang sighed, and he was helpless.
Life is already very difficult. Why torture this fragile family?
What a sensible child?
At a young age, I have learned to help my mother, not to make trouble for my mother, to share my worries and solve difficulties for my mother
Recalling the way orange was learning from adults just now, Chen Cang couldn''t help shaking his head.
At this time, orange stood outside with Yang Kaihua and nurse Lele, looking worried at them.
"I don''t trust my mother. I''ll go and see her... She won''t see me and will worry."
Lele was stunned and looked at the little adult orange. He was really warm.
"What a lovely child?"
Yang Kaihua stared at orange and nodded: "yes!"
Lele caught up, pushed the door open, carefully entered the office, and suddenly saw his mother crying!
He was startled and hurried over.
"Mom, why are you crying..."
Then he raised his little hand to wipe Lu Jie''s tears.
"Mom doesn''t cry. Let''s go home. I''ll wash your feet at night, okay?"
"By the way, mom, I can have a winter vacation right away. I''ll accompany you every day."
"Mom doesn''t cry!"
"I''ll go home and tell you a story."
Looking at the sensible orange, Lu Jie wanted to cry, but she had to hold back.
She smiled: "orange is obedient. Wait outside. Mom and uncle doctor talk about something."
After listening, the sensible boy nodded, turned and walked outside.
But after taking a few steps, he seemed a little worried. Suddenly, he turned and looked at Lu Jie. Then he went out.
Lu Jie watched the child go out, looked at Chen Cang and said, "Dr. Chen, how much does this operation cost?"
This question stopped Chen Cang. He really didn''t know.
"Well, you take your children home today. The car broke down. You don''t have to rush out to work these two days. You ask for a leave for your children. I''ll contact several experts in the province. Let''s understand and discuss it and see how to treat it properly."
"Do you need to invite outside experts and some expenses? What do you think?"
"After all, children are still young, and health is more important than anything!"
Lu Jie nodded, that''s right!
In her heart, orange is all she has.
She can''t lose it in her life
Out of the office, Lu Jie left with her children.
Yang Kaihua suddenly said, "well... Miss Lu, I contacted the 4S store. Now I''m here. I''m responsible for everything. You don''t have to worry."
Speaking of this, Yang Kaihua said, "I asked the driver to drive a car. Shall I take you home?"
