Chapter 410 Soft Heart
Refuse to let middlemen make a profit?!
When Yu Zhiming heard this, he knew that the matter was not simple and there must be a lot of inside stories.
Although he was very curious, he didn't have time to chat, so he asked Zhang Yong to tell the inside story to Zhou Mo, the God of Ears.
Before leaving, Yu Zhiming specifically told Zhang Yong.
The surgery that his fellow patient had arranged fell through...
After being busy until nearly eleven o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiming returned to the big office to replenish water and energy, and was surprised to find that Zhang Yong had not left yet.
"Doctor Yu, I think it would be more comprehensive and clear if I could tell you what happened in person."
"also……"
Zhang Yong said frankly, "I still want to fight for a chance to have a life-saving surgery. Please, Doctor Yu, please help me."
Yu Zhiming took the warm water handed to him by Zhou Mo, drank a few big gulps, and stuffed a piece of chocolate into his mouth.
Seeing that Yu Zhiming did not agree but did not object, Zhang Yong quickly organized his words and gave a brief account.
"I saw a post he made on a patient forum. He said he had an excellent chance of surgery for a skull base tumor, with a 70% to 80% chance of extending his life by five to six years."
"It's just that the surgical conditions are special and require high medical expenses, so I need to find someone to share the burden."
Zhang Yong looked at Yu Zhiming, who was snacking again, and continued, "I contacted him with the mentality of seeking medical treatment randomly."
"Afterwards, I rushed to Binhai and went to his home to discuss the matter in detail."
"I initially ruled out that he was a fraud and signed an agreement stipulating that I would bear all the expenses for his and my treatment."
"To prevent me from contacting the hospital directly, he didn't tell me the hospital where the surgery would be performed or the surgeon who performed it. He only assured me that it was a famous hospital with top doctors."
"And at the last moment, I can still regret it."
Zhang Yong paused and continued, "To protect him, I also agreed that the medical expenses must be paid directly to the hospital and cannot be transferred to any personal account."
"He agreed too."
"Just two days ago, he said he needed 50,000 yuan to smooth things over with the hospital, and I gave it to him."
"Yesterday, he told me that another patient contacted him and said that the patient promised to cover all medical expenses and give him 300,000 yuan for recovery expenses."
"He also said there were only two surgery slots available."
"He said he was in a dilemma because he had already spent 200,000 or 300,000 yuan on this surgery."
As he spoke, Zhang Yong took out several sheets of A4 paper and a USB flash drive from the briefcase he brought with him.
"Doctor Yu, this isn't something I'm making up. I have all the chat records and call recordings with him as proof."
Seeing that Yu Zhiming did not take the paper, Zhang Yong handed the paper and USB drive to Zhou Mo who was standing beside him.
"I know he's greedy."
"I gave him a perfunctory answer while I asked someone to investigate."
"After all, there are only a few hospitals in Binhai that are confident in performing such a difficult surgery as skull base tumors."
"I easily found Huashan Hospital, Dr. Yu, and Dr. You Weixian."
After hearing this, Yu Zhiming finally understood the inside story.
He looked at Zhou Mo and asked, "Have you informed Mr. Zhang about our situation on this matter?"
Zhou Mo shook his head and said, "Doctor Yu, if you don't ask me to tell you, I will definitely keep my mouth shut."
"Besides, Mr. Zhang didn't ask me."
This surprised Yu Zhiming a little. He thought that Zhang Yong would try every possible means to trick Zhou Mo into talking.
This made him feel more favorable towards Zhang Yong.
He pondered for a moment, then sighed softly, "Zhou Mo, please inform Mr. Zhang of the relevant details of that incident."
"I'll report what I learned from Mr. Zhang to Teacher Qi later."
Yu Zhiming turned his gaze to Zhang Yong and said, "Leave the medical information to Zhou Mo."
Seeing Zhang Yong's surprised expression, Yu Zhiming said bluntly: "Don't be too happy yet."
“It’s hard to say what the final outcome will be.”
"Not every skull base tumor is suitable for our treatment plan."
"Even if your condition is suitable, as a collaborative surgery under special treatment conditions, it may not be possible to complete it."
Zhang Yong looked grateful and bowed, saying, "Doctor Yu, I know that you and Doctor You are both experts in your respective medical fields and are very busy on weekdays."
"I want to live, I want to live longer. If there is even a glimmer of hope, please have mercy on me, Dr. Yu."
Yu Zhiming didn't respond to him. He drank the water in the cup and ran back to the ward to get busy...
After noon, Yu Zhiming returned to the office again and found that Zhang Yong had left.
Zhou Mo reported: "Doctor Yu, after listening to my story, he left. It was quite straightforward."
"Didn't he try to please you?" Yu Zhiming asked.
Zhou Mo chuckled and said, "I'm just an ordinary administrator, not worthy of being flattered."
After a pause, she asked curiously, "Hey, Doctor Yu, why are you so easy to talk to today?"
"I've always been good-tempered and easy to talk to!"
Yu Zhiming boasted about himself and sighed, "After all, it's a life. I'm a doctor. If I have the strength to do so, I'll still try to save it."
"Also, it's fate that he found me. I always have a preference for those who work hard and don't give up."
Zhou Mo agreed, "That's true. As the old saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."
She chuckled again, "Doctor Yu, that one deliberately tried to get close to Qiao Lei. She's really trying not to give up, right?"
Yu Zhiming hummed softly, "Many times, it's easier to achieve your goal by being direct than by taking a roundabout approach, especially for someone like me who's easy to talk to."
"That guy was just too cunning and ruined the chance for surgery."
Zhou Mo nodded in agreement and handed over a large brown paper bag.
"Doctor Yu, this is the patient's medical information."
Yu Zhiming waved his hand and said, "Take it first, let's go have lunch together."
"After dinner, please help me send it to Doctor You and tell him that I asked him to take a look at the possibility of surgery..."
Around six o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming completed today's breast cancer screening of fifty volunteers and returned to the large office, where he unexpectedly found You Weixian waiting for him.
"Doctor You, that patient is not suitable for surgery, you..."
Before Yu Zhiming could finish his words, You Weixian pulled him in front of the projection screen.
He pointed to the brain image on the viewing slide and said excitedly, "Doctor Yu, this patient Zhang Yong has a very interesting skull base tumor."
"I suddenly thought of a surgical plan..."
You Weixian pointed to the right tumor location on the image and explained, "We implanted a sufficient dose of radioactive particles at this location of the tumor."
"It kills nearby tumor tissue and causes the tumor to collapse and shift."
"If this, and the tumor here, gets pulled hard enough, it might move a little bit here."
You Weixian gestured and said, "I can insert the knife from the base of the right ear, effectively avoiding this area and the sensitive brain center here, and successfully remove the tumor."
"Doctor Yu, what do you think of my idea?"
Without waiting for Yu Zhiming's response, he explained, "Yesterday, Mr. Shen Zhe came to the hospital for a follow-up examination."
"His skull base tumor is under very good control, shrinking by nearly one-fifth, with some movement of various parts of the skull."
"When I saw this person's skull base tumor today, I couldn't help but think about the shrinkage and movement of tumors."
"Doctor Yu, do you think this idea can be realized?"
Yu Zhiming was still a little confused about what Dr. You had just said, but he understood the general meaning.
First, radioactive particles are used to kill tumor cells, and then the pressure inside the brain is used to drive the position and shape of the tumor to make some changes to facilitate surgery.
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "From an analytical point of view, it is feasible."
"However, a lot of luck is also required."
You Weixian nodded and said, "The amount of luck required is really quite high."
He turned his gaze to the image on the viewing light. "The purpose is different, and the location of the radioactive particles is also different."
"If the goal is to kill and control tumor growth to the greatest extent possible, my initial design is to implant radioactive particles here, here, here, and here—four locations in total!"
"It is expected that patients can gain three to five more years."
"If the goal is to move the tumor and facilitate subsequent surgery, it needs to be implanted in these two locations..."
You Weixian retracted his pointing hand and said, "But unfortunately, the tumor hasn't moved to the right place. This patient will only have one or two years to live at most."
"But with luck, the surgery is successful, and the patient is likely to live another 10 to 20 years."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Both options have their pros and cons, and we have to take our chances and gamble our lives."
"This can only be decided by the patient himself."
You Weixian nodded and put away Zhang Yong's brain imaging image.
"I'll think about it carefully when I get home tonight..."
After seeing off Dr. You, Yu Zhiming, accompanied by Zhou Mo, went to the cafeteria for dinner first, and then rushed to the gynecology building.
Ding Ye, who was waiting in the lobby on the first floor, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yu Zhiming.
"Doctor Yu, I was really worried that you wouldn't come."
Yu Zhiming said with a straight face, "I always keep my word and have a strong sense of responsibility."
"Since we've already agreed on this, I won't ignore the embryo transfer for this batch of IVF."
"Otherwise, wouldn't that give someone an excuse to attack?"
Ding Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Director Liu has already asked for leave to go home. I've seen so many accusations in the work group, especially since there aren't many people in the department defending her."
"This makes Director Liu very sad."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Isn't it possible that she always feels good about herself, thinking that she's doing well and is very loved?"
Ding Ye smiled awkwardly, took Yu Zhiming and Zhou Mo to the elevator and arrived at the sixth floor again.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Yu Zhiming heard more than one person talking.
“Here it comes, here it comes!”
“This time it’s really coming!”
"Thank God, I don't have to worry anymore."
Hearing these voices, Yu Zhiming suddenly felt a little guilty.
Although this was a personal conflict between him and Director Liu, it inevitably affected the patients.
How innocent they are!
Thinking that Liu Yun had received enough lessons this time, Yu Zhiming finally softened his heart.
"Doctor Ding, the second batch of IVF treatments is scheduled for Saturday night..."
Please support me with monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, etc.!!!
