Chapter 1037: Chapter 1037: Three People Who Can Stand on Their Own!

Zhong Meimei and Xi Ruoyu, upon hearing the news, quickly grabbed the white coats hanging on the clothes rack and followed Wang Xiaobo out.

On the way to the emergency room, Wang Xiaobo quickly explained the patient’s condition: "The patient is an eighty-eight-year-old elderly man."

"Just onset, already showing symptoms of slurred speech and right limb numbness, suspected brain hemorrhage."

The three of them talked and had already arrived at the emergency room. At this moment, in the emergency room, an elderly man with gray hair lay on a bed, looking at the doctors examining him with fear and helplessness.

His eyes were full of pleading and fear. Beside the bed were a middle-aged man and a young man.

The young man held the elderly man’s hand tightly and said, "Grandma, don’t be afraid; it’s me, Mingming."

But the elderly man didn’t listen to the young man’s words. Instead, he tightly held onto the middle-aged man’s hand.

Upon seeing the elderly man’s symptoms, the young man, with tears in his eyes, choked and said to the middle-aged man, "Second Uncle, Grandma doesn’t recognize me anymore."

"Mingming, don’t worry, this is an early symptom of a brain hemorrhage," the middle-aged man hurriedly comforted the young man.

Wang Xiaobo and the other two came to the bed. Xi Ruoyu hurriedly grabbed the elderly man’s wrist and started to check his pulse.

Wang Xiaobo assisted Xi Ruoyu on the side.

Zhong Meimei came to the young man’s side and comforted him, saying, "Don’t worry, this is just an early symptom of a brain hemorrhage. Your second uncle is right."

"Maybe by tonight, tomorrow he’ll recognize you."

The young man nodded quickly and said, "Thank you, doctor. Please, you must cure my grandma."

"I come from a single-parent household, and my sister and I were raised by Grandma. Now she doesn’t even recognize me."

"No matter how much it costs, no matter what price I have to pay, please do cure my grandma."

As he spoke, tears gushed from his eyes once more, and he looked at the elderly man on the bed with concern.

Hearing this, Zhong Meimei said, "Don’t worry, we will do our best to save Grandma."

After checking the pulse, Xi Ruoyu said to Wang Xiaobo, "Directly go through the green channel to admit the elderly man."

Then Wang Xiaobo and Zhong Meimei quickly helped the elderly man with the admission procedures, while Ruo Yu swiftly wrote a prescription on paper and handed it to the nurse beside her, saying, "Boil the medicine according to this prescription immediately."

"Yes, Dr. Xi!" the nurse replied promptly and hurried out of the emergency room.

After arriving at the hospital room in the inpatient unit, Xi Ruoyu took out a set of silver needles from his case.

He then quickly drew five needles and swiftly inserted each one into the elderly man’s head.

But before he could insert the fifth silver needle, the elderly man began to resist.

Seeing this, Xi Ruoyu urgently said to the middle-aged man beside him, "Quickly calm him down."

The middle-aged man and the young man immediately stepped to the bed.

The young man hurriedly said, "Grandma, don’t be afraid; the doctor is treating you."

But upon hearing the young man’s words, the elderly man seemed even more terrified and leaned towards the side of the middle-aged man.

Seeing this, Xi Ruoyu quickly said, "You should leave for the moment. Grandma doesn’t recognize you now, only your second uncle. Staying here will only make her afraid."

The young man, looking at his grandmother on the bed, now like a frightened child, couldn’t hold back his tears and stood aside, silently watching the elderly man through the curtain.

Seeing the young man’s plight, Zhong Meimei sighed inwardly.

This filial piety from the young man is truly admirable.

Upon hearing Xi Ruoyu’s words, the middle-aged man hurriedly held the elderly man’s hands tightly.

"Mom, I’m here. Don’t be afraid. Once the doctor treats you, you can be discharged."

"I’ll make dumplings for you when we get home."

The elderly man seemed to prefer dumplings and, upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, the frightened expression on his face eased a little, and he nodded slightly.

Yet, seeing this, the young man felt immense grief.

Recalling his childhood, when Grandma loved making dumplings for him.

Every time he returned home after starting college, he would find a few plates of steaming dumplings on the table.

Once the grandson Grandma loved most, now he became someone she feared, unable to recognize him.

After the middle-aged man calmed her down for a while, the elderly man gradually quieted down.

Xi Ruoyu steadily placed the fifth silver needle on the elderly man’s head.

After Xi Ruoyu administered the acupuncture, the elderly man’s condition seemed to improve.

"Why are we in the hospital?" the elderly man asked the middle-aged man beside him.

Upon hearing the elderly man speaking normally, the young man joyfully emerged from behind the curtain, "Grandma, you’re better!"

"Mom, do you recognize who this is?" the middle-aged man tentatively asked the elderly man.

But as soon as the elderly man saw the young man, a look of fear appeared on her face again.

The young man, seeing this, hurriedly retreated as if he had done something wrong, exiting the room to the hallway.

He couldn’t bear the look of fear on Grandma’s face toward him, even though he knew it was due to her cautious nature, only afraid of strangers.

But knowing that in Grandma’s eyes, he had already become a stranger, the young man’s heart ached like being cut with a knife.

Xi Ruoyu told the middle-aged man, "The elderly man is temporarily out of danger, but we still need to observe the situation."

"Considering her age and brain hemorrhage, I wouldn’t recommend surgeries like craniotomy or burr hole drainage."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly shook his head and said, "We are not considering any surgeries or burr hole drainage."

Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Xi Ruoyu nodded.

Having been in the First Hospital for so long, he had encountered many relatives of patients who immediately requested surgeries for their loved ones.

Although he understood the family members’ desire to see the patient recover quickly through surgery.

But many conditions require careful consideration before undergoing surgery.

Age, complications, medical history, etc. If just one of these factors isn’t met, surgery isn’t advisable unless the situation is life-threatening.

This is why Xi Ruoyu devoted himself to traditional Chinese medicine after Qin Han left.

He aimed to alleviate the patient’s suffering through acupuncture.

Xi Ruoyu told the middle-aged man, "Once the nurse brings the boiled medicine, comfort the elderly and have her drink it."

One hour after taking the medicine, I’ll arrange for a nurse to give her an IV.

"This condition has a slow recovery period, so you shouldn’t be too anxious."

The middle-aged man nodded quickly and said, "Thank you, doctor!"
