Rebirth in the 90s: The Long Road to Finding a Son

Yuan Jie, pregnant with her second child, fell into a coma after an accident. While her beloved Sun Aimin did everything to save her life, she entered a long and strange dream. In the dream, her fa...

Chapter 221 Death is approaching

The two hematologists Fan Hua contacted finally arrived five days later. They were very busy, and the fact that they could spare the time to make a special trip to Jiangyuan City in less than a week was already a great honor for Fan Hua.

By the time the two experts arrived at the hospital, Zhan Baoyu had already shown signs of infection. His condition progressed rapidly, and during the first two days of hospitalization, the doctor developed a chemotherapy plan based on Zhan Baoyu's condition, and he was able to continue chemotherapy.

But now that she's infected, even chemotherapy isn't an option. Although doctors are actively administering anti-infective treatment, the fever persists. Doctors in Jiangyuan City are at their wit's end and are telling her family to be prepared.

The Zhan family knew that Zhan Baoyu would be in great danger, but they didn't expect that his condition would progress faster than Zhan Baoliang's.

By the time the two hematology experts arrived, Zhan Baoyu's physical condition was already very bad.

Although the two experts have made great achievements in the research of blood diseases, they are powerless to save a dying person.

They could only explain the current situation to the Zhan family: "The patient has acute leukemia, which progresses rapidly and is highly dangerous, with an average survival rate of only three months. If his condition had been discovered earlier, there might still be hope for treatment. But now..."

The expert shook his head and said, "There's nothing we can do."

Zhan Yinhua asked anxiously, "So my brother can only wait to die like this? Is there really no other way?"

The expert patiently explained to her: "There have been some research advances in leukemia treatment. If conditions permit, bone marrow transplantation can be performed.

However, first a suitable bone marrow donor must be found. Even if a family member is a match, the results can take more than two weeks to come out. Furthermore, a bone marrow transplant depends on the patient's own condition.

Furthermore, this hospital does not have the conditions to perform bone marrow transplants, and the patient’s current physical condition is not suitable for transfer to the nearest Provincial People’s Hospital. So…”

As a medical worker, how could Zhan Yinhua not know what the experts meant? She stumbled back two steps, feeling flustered and weak, her body almost unsteady.

She took two deep breaths and then asked, "Then, how long can my brother live?"

The expert replied, "It's hard to say, but judging by the rate at which his condition is progressing, he should only have about a month left."

Oh my God, why is it so unfair to our Zhan family? Zhan Yinhua cried out in her heart in the office.

When the expert diagnosed Zhan Baoyu's condition, he only called Fan Hua and Zhan Yinhua to the office, so the others who were waiting outside the ward did not know the result.

Since the patient had no hope of treatment, there was no need for the two experts to stay here any longer. After Fan Hua and Zhan Yinhua left the office, the two experts also quickly left the hospital.

When the Zhan family saw Zhan Yinhua coming back, they immediately surrounded her and asked, "What did the experts say? Is there still hope?"

Zhan Yinhua didn't say anything, but her lifeless eyes said it all.

Fan Hua, who was standing behind her, said seriously, "The experts say there's no better way to treat my second brother's condition. He may only have a month left."

Such news was like a bolt from the blue for the Zhan family, especially the old couple Zhan Dayou and his wife.

Old Mrs. Zhan couldn't bear such a blow and collapsed to the ground. Her legs were so weak that she couldn't even stand up. In the end, Zhan Baoku carried her on his back and completed the hospitalization procedures for her in other departments.

As for Zhan Baoyu, he is in the hematology ward due to infection and cannot be visited.

The family was anxious, but they did not want to tell him the results of the expert consultation so quickly, fearing that he would become discouraged, lose the courage to live, and accelerate the death process.

Zhan Baoyu was lying in a ward full of instruments with no one to accompany him. How could he not know what his current physical condition was.

Since you are powerless to fight against fate, you should arrange your own affairs before you die.

After he applied to the medical staff, they allowed one family member to visit him in the ward fully armed.

In the end, the visitation rights fell to Zhan Dayou.

When Zhan Dayou entered the ward and saw his weak and pale second son, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Second brother, Dad is here. How do you feel now?" Zhan Dayou walked to Zhan Baoyu's bedside and said lovingly.

Zhan Baoyu tried to force a smile towards Zhan Dayou and said weakly, "Dad, am I hopeless? Don't lie to me. I know my own body. My eldest brother was like that too..."

Speaking of his eldest son, Zhan Baoliang, it was a lifelong pain for Zhan Dayou. He never expected that he would once again face the situation of seeing his son die before him...

Seeing Zhan Dayou remained silent, Zhan Baoyu said, "Dad, the doctor said, how long do I have left? It's okay, tell me the truth, I can bear it. I still have a wish that hasn't been fulfilled, and it seems that only mom and dad can help me fulfill it!"

Zhan Dayou's heart bled as he listened to his second son's words. If he could, he would have loved to have traded his own life for his two sons' lives! But there are no ifs in this world.

He hated it so much, hated the injustice of God, who made his family suffer such misfortune for generations. Why could other people's children grow up smoothly, carry on the family line, and finally enjoy the happiness of family life, while his family would be cut off from descendants?

A closer look reveals that the current situation of the Zhan family is truly doomed to extinction. One son is dead, and another is dying soon. Of the three sons, the second has no children, and the eldest and third each have a daughter. It can be said that none of them have any children.

For the Zhan Dayou couple who favored boys over girls, it would not be an exaggeration to say that this was a devastating disaster.

Especially when he heard that there is a cure for leukemia, but his second son is not suitable for this treatment, it was like going from hope to despair. It would be better if he had not known about this treatment in the first place.

He looked at Zhan Baoyu's hopeful eyes and said softly, "Baoyu, tell me what you want, and I will definitely make it happen for you."

Zhan Baoyu said, “It’s not a big deal, but it’s sad to think that I’m going to die soon and I don’t have a child to carry on the family line.

Anyway, my eldest brother still left Tingting... I don’t want to die like this. Can you bring me a boy before I die?

In the future, when my death anniversary comes, my descendants will burn some paper money for me and offer me homage, which will make my thirty years of life in this world worthwhile."

Although the situation is tense now, this kind of thing is easy for the Zhan family. Zhan Dayou immediately agreed and comforted Zhan Baoyu, saying, "Dad is in charge of this matter. Don't worry, I will do it as soon as possible and bring him to the hospital to see you."
