"If your old friend's name is Shi Desheng..."
Before Shi Han could finish his words, Grandpa Ye couldn't wait to ask, "Who is he to you? Is he okay now? Where is he now?"
Shi Han replied calmly, "Shi Desheng is my grandfather. He is currently abroad."
“He…he…”
Grandpa Ye was very excited.
So excited that he was incoherent.
Seeing Grandpa Ye like this, Grandma Ye reached out and gently pressed Grandpa Ye's hand, and whispered to Shi Han: "You said Shi Desheng is your grandfather, what evidence do you have?"
Shi Han took out the yellowed envelope and handed it respectfully to Grandpa Ye.
Grandpa Ye looked at the envelope that was nearly half a century old, and tears instantly welled up in his eyes.
Ye Linlang was confused.
She looked at the scene in front of her, completely unaware of what was going on.
Xie Xuning was also confused.
He thought Shi Han was his love rival, but after all the fuss... Was this just a misunderstanding?
Grandpa Ye opened the envelope gently with trembling hands and pulled out a black and white photo.
Ye Linlang curiously moved over and took a look at the black and white photo.
This photo was taken in front of the fountain in Ye Mansion.
"Grandpa, are the people in this photo you and my grandma?" Ye Linlang asked.
Grandpa Ye nodded gently with tears in his eyes.
This photo is laminated with transparent plastic.
On the back of the photo, there are words written by Grandpa Ye himself.
"Photo taken on April 23rd at Ye Mansion in Shanghai, for my brother"
Grandpa Ye never expected that he would get news about his brother during his lifetime.
This is like a dream to him!
"Is he okay?"
Shi Han shook his head, unable to bear to tell others about his grandfather's recent situation.
Grandpa Ye's heart suddenly sank.
"Still alive?"
Shi Han hesitated for a moment before speaking softly, "Grandpa has cognitive problems. Since half a year ago, he has been clamoring to go home."
Grandpa Ye didn't know what cognitive problems meant, but Ye Linlang, as a doctor, asked as soon as he heard Shi Han's words, "Is it Alzheimer's?"
"This is the scientific name of the disease." Shi Han said.
Grandpa Ye didn't know much about this disease. He asked Ye Linlang, "Linlang, what is this disease? Can it be cured?"
"Grandpa, this disease is commonly known as Alzheimer's disease. It mainly occurs in the elderly and pre-elderly. It is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by progressive cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. Common clinical manifestations include memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, agnosia, impairment of visual-spatial ability, impairment of abstract thinking and calculation, and personality and behavioral changes."
Ye Linlang said a long list of medical terms, but Grandpa Ye didn't quite understand them.
He just wanted to know, "So... can it be cured?"
Ye Linlang said: "With current medical conditions, this disease cannot be cured."
In fact, not to mention the current conditions, even in 20 or 30 years, Alzheimer's disease cannot be cured.
This is a disease of old age.
It can only be prevented, not cured.
The cruelest thing about this disease is that patients will slowly forget the people around them.
Even if it is the person he loves the most, he will forget it.
Grandpa Ye looked dejected. He looked at Shi Han and said impatiently, "Where is he? Take me to find him! I'll take him home, back to our real home."
