Chapter 126 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 126 ...
Besides performing surgeries in the operating room, she also has to research drugs for malignant tumors and write her graduation thesis, so it's not an easy job for her.
Director Zheng nodded. "Okay, then I'll tell them that if they need surgery, they should be transferred to the Second Hospital." This is very common in medicine, and there's no question of making things difficult.
Even if she's angry, it's quite normal for her not to perform surgery on her son. Director Zheng won't force her, but it's clear she's not that petty.
Two days later, at the First Hospital's pediatric surgery department, the nurse, after hearing about the incident, hesitated for a moment but still transferred the child to the Second Hospital. Subconsciously, she didn't think Director Zheng would joke about her child. Moreover, she had also heard about what happened in the emergency department. How could someone who could make the attending surgeon call for help be a simple person?
At this point, she regretted not having the surgery done the first time, otherwise she wouldn't have had to go through all that trouble again.
Because Lin Wei had become familiar with the people in these departments during this time, she was notified immediately after they learned of her arrival.
After carefully examining the child's condition and confirming that a second surgery was indeed necessary, I arranged for the surgery to be performed.
The pediatric surgery nurse asked anxiously, "Dr. Lin, is my son really alright?" fearing that something else might go wrong.
Lin Wei comforted her, "Don't worry, it's just a minor surgery." It might even be simpler than the first surgery, but it was clear that she didn't dare let the same doctor who performed the surgery last time do it again, otherwise she wouldn't have come to her.
The surgery lasted only an hour and a half. Considering that the child was too young, and to prevent postoperative infection, antibiotics would be needed, Lin Wei ultimately used the medicine that Zheng Heng hadn't finished last time on him.
Of course, the recovery was also very good. Within a few days, she became lively and active again, and was no longer as sickly as before.
Most of the indicators have returned to normal.
The pediatric surgery nurse was so happy to see this that she burst into tears. "Thank you, thank you, Dr. Lin." She had lost so much hair because of this illness that she hadn't even had time to rest after giving birth.
She was narrow-minded before; it turns out that there are skilled doctors even when you're young.
However, Lin Wei still wanted to explain to her, "This second surgery is not as difficult as the first one, so any other doctor could do it. You don't necessarily have to come to me." The doctor who could do that was already very good.
But she also understood, after all, it was her own child whom she had worked so hard to give birth to, so it was normal to worry.
The pediatric surgery nurse blushed slightly upon hearing this, but she still felt that she had made the right decision to choose her. If it had been another doctor, her son would not have recovered so quickly.
However, when she gets back, she will thank the doctor who performed the surgery on her son. She can't give him money, but she can give him a banner and some fruit.
After Lin Wei finished the surgery, she asked the pediatric surgeons to take care of the patient. She was also a pediatric nurse herself, so she naturally knew how to take care of people. So, in just a few days, she heard the news that she and her son had passed away.
When Lin Wei returned to the pediatric surgery department, she received a bouquet of flowers, a banner, and a box of fruit. "Dr. Lin, this is a gift from the family of patient in bed 2. They couldn't find you, so they left it here at our nurses' station."
Since she wasn't there, they couldn't refuse for her; they could only accept it for her.
Finally, Lin Wei shared the box of fruit with everyone, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."
Zheng Hengye was also assigned one. Although he wasn't in the pediatric surgery department, Lin Wei said she would use him as a case study, so she would definitely visit him from time to time. She also brought him one. He couldn't move his right hand, but he could still use his left.
"Did the patient send this?" he asked, looking at the apple in his hand.
Lin Wei nodded without any embarrassment. Otherwise, would she seem like the type to give someone fruit, especially a single piece?
"If you don't want to eat it, you can give it to me," Lin Wei said when she saw that he didn't move.
The next second, Zheng Heng took a bite. Last time, he gave her grandfather an orange, and she ate it all by herself. What's wrong with her eating an apple this time? At least she has some conscience and knows to bring him one. He's been in the hospital recently and can't eat anything. His mouth is so bland that he can't feel anything.
Lin Wei also examined his hand during this time. "The recovery is going quite well. You've had surgery yourself, so you should know what you can and can't do. If your hand hurts, you can turn on the pain pump yourself." She didn't go into as much detail as she would with someone who was also a doctor.
Zheng Heng nodded repeatedly, and after a while he asked, "How much longer do I have to stay here?" To be honest, when he was a doctor, it was normal to spend a whole day in the hospital, but as a patient staying here, he really couldn't stand it.
Her father really trusted her; he just left him with her and never came back.
Lin Wei: "We'll see." It depends on how well his hand recovers and when she finishes her thesis. He could go back to recuperate, of course, but what about her thesis? So he'd better stay put.
However, seeing several nurses occasionally running in to glance at him, she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "I didn't expect you to be so popular." She had never seen him this popular before.
Zheng Heng choked a couple of times from her teasing, then felt embarrassed after recovering. "They were just doing their job." They weren't there to see him. Back at the First Hospital, they were all colleagues, and they wouldn't have been so direct, especially since the head of the department was his father.
As for how much she was welcomed, even the nurses didn't seem to like her very much. There were several who came to see him, and they didn't even know who they were.
Don't think he didn't know that several young interns blushed whenever they saw her, but clearly, Lin Wei wasn't ready to figure things out yet and was focused on her career.
Just as the two were talking, a commotion came from outside the neurosurgery department. Lin Wei heard it and went out to take a look out of curiosity, and then she saw several foreigners.
Several doctors and nurses watched them helplessly, their English broken and hesitant.
It is well known that people from China are often "mute" in English; they can do well on written tests, but they can't have fluent conversations.
Lin Wei walked over and asked, "May I ask what's the matter?" She spoke fluent English with a standard London accent, and there was no trace of an accent.
Upon seeing that someone could finally speak English, the person from country D exclaimed excitedly, "The doctor downstairs gave me this prescription and let me come up. I heard that the medical skills in your country are very good, so I came here specifically for treatment."
Lin Wei frowned. "Who told you that?" Although she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that the best medical skills in the world were internationally recognized in the United States. Could it be that someone had a grudge against them and tricked them into coming here?
Benson: "I saw someone online saying that there is a very good doctor at the Second Hospital of Hanshao who can do any kind of surgery and can be discharged quickly. I came to see her."
Lin Wei never expected that she would become the subject of gossip. She glanced at the German man, took the hospital admission form from his hand, and wondered how he had gotten here despite the language barrier.
However, he paused when he saw the medical record. It was a brain disease, a brain tumor. The pathological examination done in his country in the past showed that it was malignant. He probably came to the country of flowers as a last resort.
To be honest, she really can't cure this disease, because she hasn't developed a drug yet, and even if she did, she would have to do experiments before she could use it.
So she looked at him apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, we can't treat this disease here." Other hospitals can also perform conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, so returning to Country D is the most suitable option for him.
Benson: "I'm not looking for you, I want to talk to that doctor. Can you call that doctor out for me?" Even after hearing this, he still pleaded, because Flower Country was his last hope.
Lin Wei calmly said, "I am the doctor you are looking for." She was also very regretful; if he had come a few months or six months later, he might have been able to use the medicine. But now it was still too early.
Benson was somewhat incredulous upon hearing this, not expecting the doctor to be so young. However, he still asked, unwilling to give up, "Is there really no other way?" All the hospitals had told him after the examinations that there was no hope, and that he could live for at most a month or two longer. But what he wanted was a complete cure, or even just to live for another ten or twenty years.
No one can remain calm when faced with the threat of death.
At this moment, Lin Wei hesitated.
Seeing this, Benson immediately said, "Doctor, do you have a way? Please tell me." The next second, he knelt down before her. With his life hanging in the balance, who cared about dignity? He'd treat her like royalty.
Lin Wei, along with the doctors and nurses around him, were startled and quickly helped him up.
"To be honest, I'm currently researching drugs to treat malignant tumors, but it will take time, at least two months, and it hasn't been tested yet. If you live to see that, and have the courage to be the first person in a clinical trial, then come find me in the Flower Country," Lin Wei said after a moment's thought.
She lived if she could, and even if she couldn't, she did her best.
This was a very good sign for Benson. "Thank you, thank you, doctor." He would definitely find a way to get through the next two months, and because of this, he returned home.
Because of the imported drugs, the same drugs are more expensive in China than abroad, and he can't afford to spend these months on treatment in China.
But Lin Wei's words undoubtedly gave him hope to live.
She watched his departing figure, and in fact, she didn't think he would live to see two more months. Even if he did, the medication might have other side effects, so she felt that the chances of seeing him again were slim.
At this moment, she lamented how fragile human life is, how a sudden illness can ruin a person's life, which further strengthened her determination to research some effective drugs.
Lin Wei looked away, and the nurses and doctors next to her started chattering, asking what she had just said to that foreigner.
Lin Wei: "It's nothing, just asking him to come here once every two months." If he's still alive.
The group didn't ask any further questions. Although they didn't know what kind of illness required them to come here two months later, they knew that if even she couldn't solve the problem, they certainly couldn't either.
They quickly moved on to other things, such as English.
"I didn't expect your English to be so good! It's like you've lived abroad." Their fluent English completely amazed them.
Lin Wei modestly replied, "It's alright." She recalled how exhausting it was to learn English back then, never imagining she'd actually use it after going abroad. She herself was quite surprised; it was always Chinese people traveling abroad for medical treatment, this was the first time she'd seen someone come all the way to China specifically to seek her help.
This is perhaps a sign of progress in traditional Chinese medicine, and also reflects the original intention behind the national talent development plan.
When Zheng Heng heard this back in the ward, he chuckled and said, "I didn't expect your name to have spread overseas. I think even more people will come to you for treatment after you finish your thesis."
And this is only a short time since she started clinical practice, yet she has already reached a level that many people cannot achieve in several lifetimes.
Lin Wei glanced at his hand. "Don't worry, once your hand heals, people will come to you for treatment."
Actually, her initial wish was very simple: to become a great doctor. It sounds impressive at first glance. However, she has now realized that the greater one's ability, the greater the expectations one faces.
