Despite his attempts to restrain himself, the doctor was clearly very unhappy.
"Are you Wang Hongwei's uncle?"
"Exactly."
Where are his parents?
"...Something came up, so I can't come for the time being."
"Something came up," Dr. Guo said, looking displeased. "What could be more important than the child's life?"
Wang Tianxiao remained silent, unable to answer.
"This is really outrageous. I've never seen such irresponsible parents. There are all sorts of birds in a big forest."
Wang Tianxiao remained silent.
Perhaps finally realizing that she had expressed her emotions too intensely, Dr. Guo slowly calmed down and asked, "So, from now on, you'll be in charge of Wang Hongwei's affairs?"
Wang Tianxiao remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed.
"Okay, I'll take care of it."
Perhaps sensing Wang Tianxiao's helplessness, Dr. Guo softened his tone and gestured to the seat opposite his desk: "Please sit down first, let's talk about the child's condition."
“Okay.” Wang Tianxiao pulled out a stool and sat down.
The doctor opened Wang Hongwei's medical record, looked at it for a while, and said to Wang Tianxiao, "You know, this child's condition is very bad right now, don't you?"
"Okay, I understand."
"Do you know what specific illness the child has?"
"Isn't it epilepsy?"
“Epilepsy…” the doctor scoffed. “What epilepsy? This child doesn’t have epilepsy at all; he has a tumor in his brain.”
"A tumor?" Wang Tianxiao was taken aback.
He had previously thought that Hongwei's seizures, or even convulsions, were caused by a fever-induced epilepsy.
I didn't think in that direction.
No matter how you look at it, it's hard to understand how such a young child could develop a tumor in their brain.
A brain tumor.
He was somewhat confused; it was a blind spot in his knowledge. He seemed to have heard people say that a brain tumor is cancer in the brain, but whether it was malignant or not depended on whether it was caused by conscience or malignancy.
"Yes, it's a meningioma."
Wang Tianxiao nodded. He didn't know what a meningioma was either, so he asked, "Is it benign or malignant?"
The doctor hesitated for a moment, then said, “For now, it should be considered benign. This disease rarely happens to children, but it happened to him. I remember when this child came to the hospital more than a month ago, I had already told his parents that they should try to control it while it was still benign, but they didn’t listen and kept putting it off until now, and the problem is more serious than before.”
It turns out that Wang Tianren and his wife had known about their child's brain tumor for more than a month.
Why didn't they say anything when they got home?
Is it because medical treatment for the child costs money, and you can't afford it or you're unwilling to spend the money?
In short, they kept their child's serious illness a secret and continued to do what they were supposed to do every day, living a good life as usual.
It really is...
Wang Tianxiao was filled with rage, his face trembling with anger.
They don't deserve to be called human.
They are even less fit to be parents.
Looking at it this way, it's quite possible that something really did happen that caused the mother to die inexplicably in their family in her past life.
Don't rush, let's solve the problem first.
"Doctor, look at the current situation..."
"It's a bit too late now, and with our current treatment methods, there's nothing we can do for the time being."
"There's no way... What does that mean? Is there no hope?" Wang Tianxiao stared at the doctor, puzzled and unwilling to give up. "But you just said it's still benign."
“It’s benign, but the tumor is quite large. It’s reached the point where it could threaten the child’s life. And because the child is still so young, the risks of surgery are too great, so… it’s a difficult situation.”
The doctor was also in a difficult position.
It seems like this is really difficult to handle.
"Isn't there a better way?"
"Our Qingcheng Hospital is a small hospital after all, and I can't think of any solutions for now. We can only keep it under control like this. But I've heard that the cancer hospital in the provincial capital is very good. Maybe we can find a solution there."
You mean Lancheng?
"Hmm, I have a senior classmate who works at Lancheng Cancer Hospital. He said they have a lot of experience treating cancer there. Why don't you transfer your child there for a checkup?"
Wang Tianxiao thought for a moment, "Wouldn't it be dangerous to transfer to another hospital?"
The doctor shook his head. "It's probably not. Right now, the child may experience dizziness and fainting frequently due to the pressure from the brain tumor, but it's not life-threatening yet. However, if it's left untreated, things could get much worse."
"I see."
Wang Tianxiao nodded and fell silent for a moment.
He was wondering how to best handle this situation.
If it were his own child, he would definitely send him to Lancheng for treatment immediately.
But Wang Hongwei was the third son's child.
According to the doctor, there are certain risks involved in surgery for this type of tumor. If things go wrong, the disease may not be cured and the child may suffer even greater harm.
If that were the case, wouldn't I be unable to extricate myself from the situation?
It's common knowledge that he and Wang Tianren have a bad relationship.
So if he can recover with the treatment, everything will be fine. But if something goes wrong, or even if the child dies, people might believe he committed murder.
The problem now is that he needs to find a reasonable explanation before he can discuss the next steps in treatment.
Thinking of this, he had no choice but to ask the doctor, "Doctor, if we go to Lancheng, could you help me write a letter to your senior classmate so that we have someone to look for him? Otherwise, we'll be completely clueless in the provincial capital, and it will be really hard to find him."
“Sure, if you want to go, I’ll write you a note. I have a pretty good relationship with the senior, so I should be able to help you get some connections.”
