Eight. Care

8. take care of

Everyone talked about Meng Qingqing's mother again. Knowing that Meng Qingqing was born without a mother, and that her father is like this now, everyone knew the consequences of this disease, so they all fell silent. The atmosphere was a bit depressed, and the eyes looking at Meng Qingqing were also full of pity. Later, everyone talked about other things, and then changed the topic to other places.

After talking for a while, it was six o'clock. It's time for a doctor's round.

Meng Zijun's attending doctor, surnamed Ling, is a middle-aged man in his forties. He checked and said that Meng Zijun had just undergone dialysis two days ago, and his condition is basically stable now.

Meng Qingqing said to Dr. Ling generously: "Dr. Ling, I am my father's only relative now. I want to find you alone to find out about my father's current situation."

Dr. Ling saw that although Meng Qingqing was young, he spoke and looked calm, and thought that children with difficult families are the ones who are sensible early. He looked at his watch and said, "Yes, but now I have to do ward rounds, and I have something to do later. , you come to my office at ten thirty, I might be free then."

Meng Qingqing nodded, "Dr. Ling, I will go to your office to find you at half past ten."

After the doctor who made the rounds left, the wife in bed number 8 said to Meng Qingqing, "Let's go! Little girl, let's go buy breakfast together."

Meng Zijun took out a handful of change from his body, "Qingqing, go to the cafeteria with auntie to familiarize yourself with the way, and you will know how to get there in the future. Before I often ask auntie to bring my meals, you are here these days Don't bother her here."

Meng Qingqing took the money from her father and said to her wife in bed 8: "Auntie, thank you for helping my father before. Let's go!"

The aunt took Meng Qingqing and walked out together, "What a sensible child, it's really painful."

When she arrived at the cafeteria, Meng Qingqing saw that there were noodles, rice noodles, steamed buns, and porridge. Meng Qingqing knew that her father liked noodles, so she planned to make noodles for her father. , indigestible food, so it is best to have some light porridge if you are early.

So Meng Qingqing made a big bowl of porridge and three steamed buns. She knew that her father didn't like sweets, so she didn't add sugar. She still had shredded pickled mustard that she bought yesterday, and the pickled vegetables were the most refreshing to eat with porridge and steamed buns.

Back in the ward, Meng Qingqing divided the porridge into two portions, and she and her father ate half each. Meng Qingqing took out the mustard shreds and poured some into her father's bowl, and then poured some into her own bowl. Her father's appetite was great, and he ate it in one breath. I finished all the porridge.

Meng Qingqing said: "Father, is there enough porridge? If not, I'll make it again."

Meng Zijun waved his hand, "No need, I drank the most porridge today, and I only ate half of today's porridge before."

The aunt next to her smiled and said, "My daughter's porridge tastes good, and I drink more than usual."

Meng Zijun wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "My daughter knows that I like to eat it mixed with pickles, so she specially bought some pickles and brought them. Today's porridge suits my appetite, so I ate some more."

Meng Qingqing handed her father a steamed bun, "Dad, eat another steamed bun with mustard shreds, it's delicious."

Meng Zijun shook his head, "Father can't take it anymore. You can eat it!"

When my father was in good health, he could eat four steamed buns in one go, but now, he would be full after eating half a bowl of porridge. No wonder he was so skinny, he couldn't eat anything, how could he not be skinny!

Not long after I had breakfast, a nurse came in and started an IV. But bed No. 8 has no infusion. Because he is going to go for dialysis today, the people who need dialysis are all people with severe kidney failure, and each dialysis lasts only a few days, and the four hours of each dialysis is a very difficult process, and many complications will occur. Diseases, such as high blood pressure, anemia, heart disease, etc., so people often die due to complications during dialysis. Dialysis is not the best form of treatment.

It can only sustain life temporarily. And each dialysis costs more than 2,000 yuan. In the early stage, dialysis is performed once a month, and in the later stage, it is once a week. Or every few days.

At 10:30, Meng Zijun's IV hadn't finished yet, and bed 8 next door went to dialysis. Meng Qingqing said to her son in bed 7: "Uncle, please help me keep an eye on my father. I will go to the attending doctor to find out about my father's situation."

The son on bed 7 nodded and said, "Go! I'll help you look after it."

Meng Qingqing thanked her and walked out of the ward. The seven beds behind said, "Oh! You are a very sensible girl. At such a young age, your father has this disease again..."

When Meng Qingqing arrived at the door of the doctor's office, Dr. Ling just happened to come from the aisle with some documents.

Meng Qingqing called out, "Doctor Ling!"

Doctor Ling froze for a moment. Meng Qingqing knew that he might have forgotten her, and reminded him, "Doctor Ling, I am Meng Zijun's daughter. I came here to ask about my father."

Dr. Ling stroked his forehead and remembered, "Oh! Yes, you said during the rounds in the morning, okay, come in!" Dr. Ling pushed open the door of the office.

Dr. Ling put the materials in his hand into the bookcase and sat down at the desk. He pointed to the chair opposite and said to Meng Qingqing, "Sit down!"

Meng Qingqing sat across from Dr. Ling.

Dr. Ling found Meng Zijun's medical records, "Your father is Meng Zijun, he is thirty-three years old."

Meng Qingqing nodded, "Yes!"

"It's a pity to be so young!" Dr. Ling couldn't help but whispered.

"Your father was taken care of by your uncle before. Now you come, where are the other adults in your family? Where is your mother?"

"My mother passed away, and the only relatives in the family are grandma and me. Grandma is old and illiterate. She is so big in the hospital. She can't find it anywhere, so she can't take care of my father. Although I am young, But I can take care of my father." Meng Qingqing held back her tears, she couldn't cry all the time, she was young, and she cried every day, how could others believe that she could make decisions for her father.

Dr. Ling showed sympathy when he heard this, and his voice softened, "So, you are his only immediate family member. How old are you now?"

"Twelve years old!"

"Okay! Although you are young, your father has no other relatives, so I can only tell you about him."

"Doctor Ling, tell me all about my father's real situation. I can hold on, and I can also make decisions for my father."

Dr. Ling gave Meng Qingqing a sympathetic look. He had seen all kinds of family members of patients in the hospital, but he had never encountered such a tragic situation. A child of this age, without his mother, also faced Facing the possibility of losing their father at any time, other children of the same age are still acting like a baby in the arms of their parents! She had to bear such a heavy thing.
