It was unusual for Li Chu to wake up late in the morning, and he was actually woken up by his two children.
When he opened his eyes, his daughter was sleeping on his chest and his son was sleeping on his lap.
I don't know when the two kids got up, their clothes had been changed, they probably got sleepy while playing on the bed and fell asleep on their dad.
Just as she was about to lift the child off her, Ding Qiunan walked in and chuckled when she saw the two children sleeping.
"Why did you wake up so late today?" she asked, reaching out to help put the child on the bed.
Li Chu rolled her eyes at her, annoyed: "It's all your fault."
"How did I hurt you? I should have gone to bed early last night." Ding Qiunan was a little confused.
"Don't you know your own sleeping posture? These two kids are just like you."
"Hehe, it's such a waste not to hold you since you're so comfortable."
"Heh," what else could Li Chu say? He got dressed and went to wash up.
When I came out of the bedroom, I saw that breakfast had already been bought.
"Why did you get up so early today? You even bought breakfast."
"I get up early every day, okay?" Ding Qiunan retorted excitedly, like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Li Chu didn't say anything, but gave her a look that made her understand, then turned and went into the bathroom, locking the door from the inside.
"What do you mean by that look? Li Chu, explain yourself clearly."
All she could hear from the bathroom was the sound of running water, which infuriated her, and she paced back and forth in the living room.
After a while, hearing the noise from the bathroom door, and seeing Li Chu come out after washing up, Ding Qiunan ran over, jumped up, wrapped her legs around his waist, and put her arms around his neck.
"Explain yourself, what did that look in your eyes mean just now?"
Li Chu was almost knocked over by the force of his wife's charge. He took two steps back before regaining his footing and hurriedly used his hands to support her buttocks.
"Be careful, honey. You're a mother now. What if you fall?"
He patted her on the back of the head and said, "Okay, I was just kidding. My wife is the best, you couldn't find one even with a lantern. My ancestors must be incredibly lucky to have married such a wonderful wife like you."
"Hmph," Ding Qiunan jumped off him, turned around arrogantly, walked to the table, grabbed a big steamed bun and took a bite, grinding her teeth at Li Chu as she ate.
After arriving at the hospital in the morning, Li Chu did not go to the examination room, but went directly to the laboratory to pick up the test report of the kidney failure patient.
Thanks to his long period of intensive study, he was finally able to understand the data on these test reports.
Back in the consultation room, he studied the test results carefully, occasionally consulting books for further information.
As he expected, the data shown in the report was similar to the conclusions he had drawn from taking the pulse. However, the test report was more intuitive, while the conclusions drawn from taking the pulse relied too much on experience.
He took out his research report from his bag, added the data, and his report was now in its initial stages.
He took out another stack of letter paper from the drawer, intending to copy it again.
He also needs to submit a report to the bureau later. The bureau had given him a letter of introduction so that he could easily visit other hospitals to see patients in person, and they had also collected so many medical records for him. He had to give the leaders an explanation.
Just when he thought he wouldn't have any patients all morning, the female cancer patient from last time came over.
"Dr. Li, I'm sorry to bother you again."
When Li Chu saw her, he was a little puzzled. The medicine he prescribed for her last time was supposed to last three months, so why was she here so soon? Had her condition worsened? But her complexion didn't seem to indicate that, and none of her family members had come with her.
"Comrade Liu, what brings you here today...?"
"Dr. Li, I've taken the medicine you prescribed, and I feel much better now. I came to ask if I could stop taking those medications, given our family's situation..."
Liu Huiying blushed slightly and seemed a little flustered.
Hearing her words, Li Chu didn't know how to respond. He knew about the patient's family situation. She had elderly parents and young children to support. The patient and her husband were both temporary workers, and the whole family of seven or eight people depended on their wages to make a living.
Now that she's sick, there's an extra expense every month, and the family is definitely struggling financially.
After careful consideration, I said, "I don't recommend you stop taking this medicine. Right now, only by taking the medicine can you temporarily control this disease. If you don't treat it now, your disease will continue to progress, and by then, it won't be something that medicine can solve."
“I know a little about your family’s situation. Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll give you a medical certificate. Take this certificate to your neighborhood committee, and you should be able to apply for poverty relief funds.”
"Is it really possible, Dr. Li?" Liu Huiying asked anxiously after hearing Li Chu's words.
“Yes, comrade, if your family is truly in dire straits and you have a serious illness, you can apply for it,” said Nurse Wang, who was standing nearby.
This relieved Li Chu. He wasn't entirely sure if he could get the application, but he vaguely remembered that it was possible. Since Nurse Wang said so, then it was certain.
Without saying anything more, he directly issued a certificate to Liu Huiying and then asked her to go with Nurse Wang to the medical office to get it stamped.
No matter the era, there are always many people who fall back into poverty due to illness.
Having a formal job is better, at least the company will reimburse you. When Ding Qiunan gave birth last time, she didn't spend a single penny.
Couples like Liu Huiying and her husband are temporary workers. Without money for treatment, they really have no choice but to tough it out on their own.
It took me most of the morning to finally copy that research report again.
After handing it over to Director Liang, he stopped paying attention to the matter. He had done all he could, and the rest depended on how the hospital arranged things. He figured he couldn't collect much data even if he worked himself to death.
With all his work finally finished, he was ready to settle down and become a doctor, and stop messing around with all this nonsense.
They've been in the limelight for the past two years, it's time for them to keep a low profile. If they continue to shine so brightly, more and more people will probably become envious.
Although he had the help of his uncles and elders, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow, and he wasn't alone.
Sometimes, it's true that the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease. Just when Li Chu wanted to calm down, the research report he submitted caused a huge uproar.
Regardless of whether the descriptions of the various stages of kidney failure in this report are accurate, Li Chu, as the first to take this step, has already been remembered by the bigwigs of the medical association.
