Chapter 133 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack 133...
The medical staff at the Second Hospital who examined him were no less shocked than he was. They had been examining him all along, and they knew what kind of situation this foreigner had, but now they were being told that he was cured. How could this be?
How was this malignant tumor, known as a death sentence, overcome?
Lin Wei looked at Benson and said, "You can't be discharged yet. The tumor in your brain still needs to be removed." She was afraid that if she didn't say something, he would be eager to go through the discharge procedures.
Benson's smile froze instantly, but he quickly laughed again. After all, he had already overcome the most difficult and dangerous part, so what was he afraid of—brain surgery? What a joke.
But this incident undoubtedly shocked everyone, not only the neurosurgery patients, but also all the staff at the Second Hospital.
The malignant tumor has been resolved?
At that moment, everyone looked at Lin Wei with a kind of fanaticism. Was she even human? Although she wasn't famous yet, everyone knew that she was just one step away from becoming famous.
And the Second Hospital will also become famous along with it, since it was the first hospital to cure a cancer patient.
Indeed, almost as soon as the test results came out, the news spread throughout the entire hospital. Once they knew, couldn't they at least leak some information? Moreover, those Germans who came to be trial participants weren't blind; they were arguably even more excited than Benson after his treatment.
He has recovered, so can they recover too?
Some even regretted not taking the medication immediately.
Others pretended to be dying, hoping Lin Wei would give them the medicine. Among them, Darnell was very grateful, "Luckily I chose to be with you back then, otherwise even if I could use the medicine in the end, I would regret not using it sooner." Who knows how much medicine she produced? Whether there was any for him? Being able to use it sooner would definitely put my mind at ease.
Benson, who was the first to be a trial participant and strongly supported Lin Wei, has been in high spirits lately. How come they were all skeptical before? They must be regretting it now, right?
Those who haven't yet taken the medication are keeping it a secret, while those who are almost cured or have been cured are eager to tell the whole world, practically saying, "Come quick! There's a miracle doctor in the Flower Kingdom who can cure cancer!"
But without a doubt, Lin Wei has become really famous this time. Old Master Wei is also very concerned about this matter. Almost as soon as this matter broke out, he immediately called to ask Lin Wei what was going on.
Lin Wei: "That's how it is for now, but this is just one case. We still need to conduct more trials." Only after it has been tested over time can we confirm that this drug can be used.
Because of this, Dr. Wei traveled directly from Sichuan Province to Wuhan. How could he not be excited about such a big event? No matter how much she did in clinical practice, he was working in the field of biology. He could appreciate her work, but he didn't have any profound feelings about it. But this was a cancer cure! How could he not be excited?
When Lin Wei saw him arrive, she knew what he wanted to see, so she didn't say anything and took him directly to see all of Benson's examinations and medical records from his admission to the present. Even though he had taken X-rays abroad, he still had several new X-rays taken after entering the Second Hospital.
Old Wei couldn't quite understand those images, but he could understand the cell and blood data. Because he understood them, he became even more excited. "Good, good!" His old face beamed with joy.
At his level, it's hard for anything to excite him like this anymore. At this moment, he is even more grateful that he took Lin Wei as his apprentice back then, as it brought him so much honor.
After a while, however, he calmed down and asked, "Does this medicine have any side effects?" Some medicines or vaccines, although effective in treating the disease, come with some side effects to varying degrees.
But it's okay. It can kill malignant tumor cells, so even if there are some side effects, it's worth it.
Lin Wei: "We haven't found any side effects yet because the time frame is too short." To truly verify this, we'd need to monitor the drug for several years. However, it's clear that even if side effects are discovered years later, the drug will still be released to the market.
Old Wei understood this better than she did, because the patients had no choice, and the country could only do so much. As for the consequences, in the short term, the benefits would definitely outweigh the drawbacks.
Just then, a nurse came over and urged, "Dr. Lin, the patient has been taken to the operating room. Don't forget there's surgery coming up later."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wei looked at Elder Wei and explained, "The person who needs surgery is the owner of those test reports you just saw. Although the malignant tumor cells have been killed, the abnormally proliferating mass is still there. So, just in case something happens later, it's safer to remove it."
Old Wei nodded. "Then you go ahead and get busy. I'll take a look around here by myself." Although he also wanted to see how she performed the surgery, he didn't want to cause her any trouble, so he didn't mention it. He stayed in the ward to watch how the nurses administered medication to the patients and to observe their reactions after receiving the medication.
Sometimes he gets scared, and the patients next to him will comfort him, saying that this is a normal phenomenon.
At that moment, he felt that his little apprentice had a strong heart; she had managed to remain calm in the face of such a situation and develop a real anti-tumor drug. To be honest, since taking her as his apprentice, he hadn't really taught her anything; it was all thanks to her own hard work and determination.
Especially this anti-tumor drug, if the test is effective, she will contribute it to the country. Even Elder Wei was shocked by her righteousness. You know, if she wanted to make money, she could have made a fortune with this cancer drug. Before she developed it, he would have just listened to her and let it go. But now, thinking back, he felt that she was very generous.
As expected of his apprentice, he took care of everything for her, except for drug research. Putting everything else aside, he couldn't let her suffer any losses, so Elder Wei would do everything he could to secure the benefits for Lin Wei.
During Lin Wei's surgery, other hospitals also called to inquire about the situation at the Second Hospital. Their attitudes were ambiguous, but the joy in their voices clearly indicated that the matter was basically true.
Although Lin Wei isn't from their hospital, that's where she receives treatment. It's all thanks to their foresight in letting her make her mark at the Second Hospital. Who knows, the Second Hospital might even become the first hospital to pilot anti-tumor drugs; then, why worry about patients not coming? And what about reputation?
However, due to funding issues, the neurosurgery director suggested setting up a separate tumor treatment center, but the Second Hospital leadership brushed this off.
Opening a cancer treatment center sounds easy, but where will the money come from? Besides, Lin Wei is no longer a doctor at their hospital. Although they value her and want to be on good terms with her, it shouldn't be to this extent.
In their view, it was good enough to have a place where she could do her thing; no other hospital would dare to let her do that.
So when Lin finished her surgery, she found that many more patients had come to the neurosurgery ward. Because there weren't enough wards, many patients ended up hanging in beds.
The patients admitted to the ward didn't have neurosurgical illnesses; they had liver cancer, lung cancer, and various other types of cancer. Ironically, the actual neurosurgical patients couldn't get a room. Seeing this, Lin Wei frowned.
When there were more wards, it was fine, and it didn't matter which patients came in. But now there are no neurosurgical patients left, which is not good.
Because of this, she went directly to the nurses at the nurses' station and explained the situation: "Transfer these newly admitted cancer patients to temporary beds and let the real neurosurgery patients move in. If they don't listen, just say that's what I said. If they still don't listen, then let them see the doctor for whatever illness they have."
"Also, the department already has enough patients. Apart from neurosurgery patients, please don't admit any more." This is unavoidable; we can't let the neurosurgery department be filled with tumor patients occupying beds, can we?
Upon hearing this, the nurse immediately carried it out. Although the group of patients were unwilling, they obediently complied with the orders of someone who could control their own destiny. They were even more grateful that they had entered earlier, otherwise they would have been turned away.
Later, the neurosurgery department of the Second Hospital added a gate access control system and even assigned a nurse to sit there and guard it.
Because of the limited number of wards, Zheng Heng was also sent back by Lin Wei, but he was asked to come back for a check-up every month. He was naturally very happy to finally be able to leave the cage of the hospital, but he still asked, "Do we need to expand the number of patients? I'll go back and ask Director Zheng. Maybe we can even try the drug at the First Hospital."
However, before Lin Wei could speak, the leaders of the Second Hospital arrived.
The first thing we did was get rid of him. People from the First Hospital wanted to steal the limelight from the Second Hospital? No way.
After Zheng Heng left, the leaders of the Second Hospital looked at Lin Wei and sighed deeply. Why didn't she mention that her teacher was from the National Institute of Biology? What was originally a sure thing turned into a competition with other hospitals because they hesitated for two days about whether to set up a separate oncology drug trial base for her in the hospital.
It's all the fault of the leaders above for being indecisive. He's here now to try and persuade Lin Wei to work at their hospital.
