Chapter 663 - One Week?
Grandfather Su looks at Old Lu and sees his worn-out condition, his heartaches. His friend who has always been proud and confident has aged quite a few years just in a few hours.
Lu Feng explained everything to him and also that Xie Ming had arrived and was checking on Yang Mi at this moment.
He pursed his lips and relaxed a bit upon hearing that Xie Ming is checking on Yang Mi. He glanced at Lu Dong who was sitting lifelessly and walked towards him, he patted his shoulders and said, " Don't worry. Everything will be fine. The girl inside who is checking on your wife, will not only save your wife's life but your child as well. Believe me!"
Lu Dong looked up at him as his eyes watered. Hearing positive words like these, gave him some hope but his eyes watered thinking about the unfortunate possibility.
However, Grandfather Su's confidence in the girl gave him some strength to get through the situation.
Old Lu also stared at Grandfather Su and pursed his lips. He never understood why this man has so much confidence in that girl. What is so special about her?
Liwei narrowed his eyes as he stared at Grandfather Su with puzzled expressions. Xie Ming has told him about her past but she didn't tell him about Grandfather Su and how he knows about her real identity.
It's not that she was hiding this fact but she just couldn't tell him everything about her at once.
…..
After 20 minutes, the door of Yang Mi's room opened and Xie Ming stepped out of the room, perspiring heavily. Her forehead was covered in sweat beads as she stood there with a tired look on her face.
" How is Yang Mi now? Do you think you can treat her?" Old Lu asked as she looked at her anticipatingly.
Everyone stood up in nervousness as they waited for her response. She looked at Grandfather Su and turned to Lu Dong before saying, " Don't worry. Ms. Yang's condition is stable now. Her blood pressure was rising and contractions were unbearable as well, however, I have given her an acupuncture massage. She has calmed down for now."
Old Lu's expressions lit up as he asked, " What about C-section? Is it necessary? And what about the baby? Is it safe?"
Xie Ming sighed softly and said, " Both mother and child are safe. The doctor recommended C-section immediately because of her increasing blood pressure and the low pulse of the baby. However, after giving her a massage and seeing her condition, I think we can wait for a week before preparing for labor."
Grandfather Su raised his brows and asked, " One week? Wouldn't it be dangerous for Yang Mi and the baby to wait for so long?"
Xie Ming was about to respond when someone shouted, " WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?"
Xie Ming looked behind Grandfather Su and saw that Yang Mi's doctor was walking towards them with her team. They were clad in their surgical clothes and looked at her with displeased expressions.
She glanced at Xie Ming and turned to Lu Dong, " Mr. Lu, Didn't I tell you that your wife's condition is very critical? How can you listen to anyone and let them check on the patient? Do you want to lose both mother and child?"
Lu Dong's expressions turned pale hearing the bold statement of the Doctor. Old Lu's expressions turned dark as he shouted, " You! How dare you say something outrageous?"
" Director Lu, I told you that Ms. Yang needs to have a C-section immediately. How can you allow anyone to check on her? What if something happened to Yang Mi because of this? You're disrupting my treatment. Please set aside." She said authoritatively.
By now, no one has ever doubted her capabilities. Ignoring her sharp tongue and bad attitude towards the guardians of the patient, she is capable of what she does.
Xie Ming frowned but took a deep breath. She tried to understand her point of view as the doctor in charge.
She walked to her and said, "Doctor, I am not anyone. I am also a doctor at this hospital in the Oriental medicine department. Pardon me for checking Ms. Yang without your permission, but let me explain to you my observation. Our main priority is to save both the mother and child. We can help each other this way. "
She saw the irritated expressions on the doctor's face and continued, " Ms. Yang's condition was worsening because of her high blood pressure and weak body composition. However, if we tried to control her vitals in a week, we can aim for natural labor.".
" C-section might seem an only option for now, but it has many side effects. If we can go for natural labor, it would be better for Ms. Yang. Also, I am sure that her vitals and condition will get better in a week if I give her acupuncture and medicines. You can…" Xie Ming was explaining about her observation and was telling him that she can help maintain her vitals and improve her health but the doctor snapped at her.
" Oh stop it! I don't have free time to hear your nonsense. You are saying you can try to aim for natural labor? How? I have checked her and there is no way that we can go for natural labor."
" If we don't perform C-section now, not only the child will die but we can't guarantee her safety either."
" Doctor!" Xie Ming shouted in anger when she heard her words. She was trying to explain to her calmly but she wasn't interested in listening to her.
How can she say about the patient's death so easily when her family was there? If not, shouldn't she respect the patient's family at least?
The doctor was surprised to see Xie Ming's outburst. She stared at her with a frown and was about to retort when Xie Ming started speaking.
" You might have more experience than me but not in oriental medicine. For Ms. Yang Mi, C-section might seem better for you right now because you don't have any alternative in your field. But it comes with so many risks and you're not sure about saving the child either."
" However, when I am saying that there is a way where we can go for natural labor and it has fewer risks and side effects, shouldn't you at least consider it at least? Shouldn't the patient's health be your first priority and not your so-called ego?"
The doctor frowned and stared at Xie Ming in displeasure. In her 10 years, no one has spoken against her, or never had the guts to do so. Even though the guardians of the patients made complaints against her for her rude behavior, the hospital ignored it keeping her competence in mind.
.
How can this girl say that she is putting the patient's life in danger?
