I didn’t ask last time because I was afraid of offending Christine.
This time, when treating Aaron, Su Yuhe had to understand the patient's basic condition and medical history.
While Zhu Ya and the doctor were comforting Aaron, Su Yuhe quietly asked Kristen, "What's wrong with your brother? Is he delusional or mentally ill?"
Christine: "I've had schizophrenia for many years, and epilepsy only developed in the past two years."
“Has anyone in your family ever had epilepsy?”
Christine said no.
If there is no such thing in the family, then the possibility of it being inherited is unlikely.
Is it caused by the environment?
As Su Yuhe was thinking, Aaron over there stopped laughing and started screaming and twisting wildly, shouting "I don't want to stay here".
The whole room was shaken by Aaron's high-decibel voice. Su Yuhe looked at the doctor and called out to the two "bodyguards": "Come here and restrain Aaron."
Restraint means tying people up with cloth strips.
They skillfully took out strips of cloth, held Aaron down, and tied him up.
The cloth strips were a little yellow, and it looked like they had been used for a long time.
Su Yuhe had never given an injection to a patient like this before, and was afraid of causing trouble, so she stood by and watched with Christine.
Aaron was finally "restrained".
Zhu Ya covered her mouth and sobbed softly beside her, reaching out to touch Aaron's face.
The boy's face was covered with sweat due to the violent movement, and his mouth was blocked by something, so he could not make any harsh sounds.
Su Yuhe is a mother herself, and she can't stand this.
The doctor looked at Su Yuhe with a hint of pride in his eyes. "You should study hard in school. If you still want to be a doctor, don't come out and see people casually. Our hospital is the largest and most prestigious mental hospital in New York. You can't challenge it."
Su Yuhe said calmly, "I didn't say I was going to challenge you. But you guys, why are you so unconfident? Are you afraid that I might discover something?"
The doctor paused, very unhappy: "Nonsense! What did Aaron look like just now? Do you have any idea how to deal with it?"
In a mental hospital, there are many ways to deal with crazy patients.
Tranquilize, restraint...
Anyway, the patient can be controlled.
As for Su Yuhe, what does a student who is still studying know?
The doctor looked down on me: "Are you Chinese? Chinese medical care is the worst! You guys are so backward over there! You don't understand us at all!"
That's really harsh.
Su Yuhe could no longer bear it: "The poor medical care is temporary, and you are a rude guy! Besides, who said I can't handle it?"
The doctor narrowed his eyes, still unconvinced: "What can you do?"
Su Yuhe walked straight over and stood beside Aaron's bed.
Zhu Ya asked Su Yuhe what she was going to do, and Su Yuhe said, "I have a better way to settle Aaron."
Zhu Ya looked at the doctor hesitantly.
The doctor got angry just now and asked Zhu Ya if she wanted to change hospitals, so she asked someone to see Aaron.
Their nursing home is the largest and best in New York, and Zhu Ya doesn't want to change.
So, she is now waiting for the doctor's opinion.
The doctor raised his chin, meaning to let Su Yuhe take a look.
He didn't believe Su Yuhe could find a solution.
Aaron was restrained and gagged, but he had not yet completely calmed down. The child twisted his body and let out a series of screams.
Su Yuhe directly pulled the cloth out of Aaron's mouth.
Screams and strange cries were heard instantly.
Zhu Ya screamed and looked at Su Yuhe, not understanding why she pulled out the cloth strip. Aaron had finally managed to control himself.
Su Yuhe took out a silver needle and injected Aaron directly into the sleeping point.
Aaron suddenly stopped screaming and struggling, and even curled up the corners of his mouth.
In just a few minutes, I fell asleep.
"Wow! Su, you are so awesome!" Kristen exclaimed.
This was the first time Su Yuhe demonstrated her acupuncture skills in front of Christine, and she put the person to sleep with just one needle.
So magical.
Su Yuhe turned to look at the doctor: "How is it?"
The doctor frowned, "That's impossible. Aaron must have gotten tired from moving around and slowly fell asleep."
Su Yuhe shrugged, as if it didn't matter. "You guys are restrained but still moving. Why aren't you sleeping? I fell asleep after one injection. Yeah, I took advantage of you. I could have given you the injection later. Maybe I could have fallen asleep earlier."
After saying this, Su Yuhe felt like laughing. She was really getting better and better at being sarcastic.
I just don't know if the doctor can understand what she means.
Seeing the doctor's face turning pale and blue, Su Yuhe felt that he must have understood.
The doctor snorted coldly: "You Chinese people are always saying things like that!"
Su Yuhe rolled her eyes. "Looking at your bald head, I think you're quite old, right? You're so old, and you still discriminate against China. What? Do you think America belongs to you alone? How shameful!"
Kristen naturally stood on Su Yuhe's side: "Doctor, you shouldn't be so prejudiced against the Chinese!"
The doctor didn't even seem to want to pay attention to Christine.
He spread his hands and said, "If you insist on letting this student see this, our hospital will no longer accept Master Aaron."
Is this a blatant threat?
But it's still quite useful.
Zhu Ya glared at Kristen: "Don't worry about it, take your classmates downstairs for afternoon tea."
Does this mean you're kicking people out?
Kristine wanted to say something else, but Su Yuhe pulled her aside and said, "Let's go down first."
Seeing Su Yuhe's look, Christine had to give up and took Su Yuhe out.
As they were walking down the stairs, Kristen was afraid that Su Yuhe would be unhappy, so she said to her, "I've already told my mom about this. I don't know why that doctor is still watching you, leaving you with nothing to see."
Su Yuhe grasped the key point: "Then the doctor always follows? He always follows and never leaves?"
"Yeah," Christine said. "They said Aaron couldn't leave home without someone. They even brought four bodyguards."
This situation is really unusual.
"Don't you think there's something wrong?"
Kristen was stunned. "What's wrong? Ever since Aaron's condition improved, every time he came home, he was sent from a nursing home. It's been like this for seven or eight years."
Is it right to always be like this?
Su Yuhe remembered that she and Zeng Xianjiu had visited a sanatorium in the capital before.
Many of the patients there can be discharged and return home within a few months.
If the time is long, it is only a year or two. Some people are still in nursing homes for several years. Most of them cannot contact their families or have no family members.
If Aaron's disease is not hereditary, it should be that he was stimulated by a major event, leading to schizophrenia. As for epilepsy, Su Yuhe is not sure what causes it.
But after all these years, Aaron's condition hasn't improved.
That's strange.
Generally, sudden onset of schizophrenia can basically stabilize within a few months and the patient can study and work normally.
Aaron is seven or eight years old, but he still looks like he just got sick.
And the doctor's unusual guarding was almost as if he was afraid that Aaron would come into contact with others.
Isn’t it strange?
Are you trying to hide something shameful?
