"Is your Yuanyuan's eye feeling better now?" Mrs. Qian asked with concern.
Mrs. Zhang frowned and shook her head. "It's not serious. Dr. Hope suggested surgery, but I'm a little panicked. If we operate on her eye, what if the blade slips and the eyeball is ruined? Yuanyuan wears glasses just like everyone else, and it doesn't affect her at all. I'd rather not have the surgery. If something goes wrong, it'll be a lifelong problem."
"Yes, the thought of having surgery on the eyes is terrifying. My mother-in-law was diagnosed with a brain tumor last year. The X-ray showed it was benign, which was fortunate. But the doctor said she needed surgery to remove it, otherwise the tumor would compress the nerves and might become malignant. He said a lot of things, which scared me to death. My husband and his mother-in-law are going to have surgery, but my mother-in-law absolutely refuses. She's afraid she won't make it off the operating table. She's been stubborn for a year now."
Mrs. Qian sighed, feeling very tired. Her mother-in-law was seventy-five years old and still quite healthy, but she was stubborn and could not be persuaded to change her mind once she made up her mind. She and her husband had tried to persuade her countless times about the brain surgery, and their children had also tried to persuade her, but the old lady just wouldn't budge. When she got angry, she would even accuse them of being heartless and trying to kill her early.
"No wonder your mother-in-law is scared. I'd be terrified if I had surgery on my head. The head is so precious; even a slight tap could cause a problem. Surgery on it... tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me break out in a cold sweat." Mrs. Wang's face showed fear; she couldn't bear to imagine the scene of brain surgery and was terrified.
Mrs. Qian sighed again, "I can understand my mother-in-law. Actually, I'm scared too, but Dr. Qian said we can't delay any longer. If the tumor ruptures, the consequences will be unimaginable. That tumor has already grown by one centimeter this year, and I'm quite panicked."
Ye Qingqing's mind raced. Dr. Qian?
It can't be such a coincidence that it's Dr. Qian, who performed the craniotomy.
"Is the PhD who treated your mother-in-law male or female?"
"She's a woman in her thirties, doesn't talk much, always wears a mask, and seems to have been specially recruited from a hospital in the US. She's an exceptionally skilled surgeon, and many people seek her out for surgery."
Ye Qingqing couldn't help but laugh, "Tell your mother-in-law not to worry. This Dr. Qian is my classmate. She is an authority in neurology. She can handle surgeries for malignant tumors more serious than your mother-in-law's. Your mother-in-law's case sounds scary, but it's actually easier for my classmate than eating. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Mrs. Qian was overjoyed after her initial surprise. "Dr. Qian is your classmate! What a coincidence! Mr. Qian and I were so worried. We couldn't force the old lady to have the surgery. She has a bad temper and we had to go along with her. She also said that Dr. Qian is so young and doesn't seem very reliable. She suggested that Mr. Qian and I find an older traditional Chinese medicine doctor. The old lady believes in traditional Chinese medicine, but Dr. Ye from the Meng family is elusive and doesn't come to see patients every day. We can never find him."
Ye Qingqing's lips twitched. "The Divine Doctor Ye is right in front of you!"
Moreover, she doesn't just appear and disappear without a trace. She clearly sees patients from Monday to Friday. This Mrs. Qian is a bit unreliable and dishonest.
“Although my classmate is young, her medical skills are extremely high. Many people are lining up to have her perform surgery. Besides, your mother-in-law’s illness requires surgery. Going to that Dr. Ye won’t help; she can’t cure her,” Ye Qingqing said truthfully.
Qian Manduo is an international authority in neurology. To be able to carve out a path for himself in the US and establish himself in a major hospital, he couldn't possibly rely on just a doctoral degree; he must have demonstrated real expertise.
