text | Mi Li's mother
Speaking of TV series, many people around Mi Li's mother have complained that they don't like to watch domestic urban dramas because they think the plot is too suspended.
Not to mention the poor, even the descriptions of ordinary people from ordinary families in the drama are all based on imagination.
A few poor students who have just graduated can live in a high-end community and live next to a Fortune 500 CEO;
A small-town girl whose family conditions are not good and who has never seen much of the world rents a house in a big city as soon as she comes to a big city. One room and one living room worth a thousand yuan, and when I go out in a hurry, I just pick up a bag and it’s Xiangxer...
This kind of plot is completely difficult to get into. I originally wanted to relax after get off work and watch TV series to have fun. As a result, my eyes were filled with such plots, and I laughed at the end, making myself laugh.
But recently Mi Li’s mother discovered a new medical drama "Surgery Live Room". I think the content is quite interesting and I want to talk about it with my sisters today.
The TV series is adapted from the novel of the same name, so some of the "Goldfinger" settings in the book have been moved to the TV series intact.
For example, the two male protagonists are both "medical geniuses", but they both have unknown secrets.
Zheng Ren, a newly hired employee, makes big moves and takes the lead anytime and anywhere. Little does he know that he actually came to this hospital to find out the truth about his father's death that year;
The young talent Su Yun has excellent medical skills, but he fell ill because of a medical accident. ptsd, can no longer be operated on, so I hide myself with a cynical appearance.
Although the scene in which the two encourage each other and redeem each other is a bit cliche in the end, to put it bluntly, with the acting skills of the two leading actors, the drama is still quite enjoyable.
But what impressed me most about this drama was the portrayal of ordinary patients in the drama.
's powerlessness and collapse in the face of misfortune in life, as well as the long-term tolerance behind it, are really moving.
Sister Xia, a cleaning worker at the hospital, was diagnosed with liver cancer a year ago. Her family was in embarrassment and she borrowed money from everywhere. She finally had an operation to remove the lesions. However, during a recent review, she was told that the cancer had recurred.
Sister Xia walked to the rooftop of the hospital in confusion. On one side was the cancer recurrence diagnosis certificate in her hand, and on the other side was the cleaning team leader who kept calling, instructing her to clean everywhere. It's about to break.
She already owed a lot of foreign debt due to the treatment. If she continued the treatment, the follow-up expenses would be a lot of money, which she simply could not afford.
She has obviously tried her best to live a life, but God's will plays tricks on people, the hemp rope is cut at the smallest point, and bad luck only seeks out the unfortunate.
Sister Xia’s contradictory emotions of unwillingness, helplessness and despair make people feel sad.
In the face of disease, although everyone is equal, poverty will make people lose many choices.
I remember that there was such a case in the documentary "Chinese Doctor".
Due to a gas explosion, a rural couple in their 60s suffered burns of 95% and 70% of their bodies. Due to financial pressure, the son of the couple sent their father, who was in critical condition, to Nanjing Gulou Hospital, while the mother could only He was treated in a small local hospital.
In order to save his life, doctors transplanted pig skin on the old man's hands. However, pig skin cannot be integrated with the human body, so surgery was needed to transplant the only 5% of skin on the body into the affected area. Otherwise, the wound is not closed, and the injured area is directly exposed to the air, and there is a risk of fatal infection at any time.
The operation is not complicated, but the cost of the surgery and treatment costs millions. This is just for the father at home. The mother, who suffered 70% burns, is still in another hospital.
The old man’s son was a little discouraged because of the huge medical expenses, saying that he could only take one step at a time.
The attending doctor Xu Ye had three long talks with the patient's family, asking them to think of another way, because there is the possibility of self-healing in other places, but the pigskin implanted in the hands must be replaced. This operation Crucial.
While communicating with the patient's family, Dr. Xu applied for a relief fund from the hospital's foundation. After applying for a relief fund of 20,000 yuan, Dr. Xu, who had been tense for many days, finally smiled.
He told his family the good news immediately, but he still received a negative answer.
The old man’s son had invested his savings in factories and houses and said he didn’t know how to get the money out, so he postponed the surgery again and again.
In the end, the old man’s family decided to give up the treatment, went through the discharge procedures for his father, and left without saying goodbye.
Xu Ye couldn't hide his disappointment when he saw the empty ward. He knew that the 20,000 yuan relief fund would be a drop in the bucket for the old man's family. He also knew that life was difficult. He was not qualified to make any comments on the decisions of family members and patients.
But he is always sad, not because of the limitations of medical technology, not because he is not working hard enough, not because the patient is not determined. He wants to be saved, but he can be saved, but cannot be saved. This is the doctor's biggest helplessness.
He said: At the end of the treatment, it is not just medical skills that are tested. It is possible that before medical skills have reached a bottleneck, they have already encountered a bottleneck in people's hearts.
Mi Li's mother remembers a line in "I'm Not the God of Medicine": "There is only one disease in the world, and it's called the disease of poverty."
Probably no one understands the bitterness and helplessness here better than doctors, but these cruelties The reality is something every young doctor must learn to face.
However, the play still moved towards a heartwarming plot, without giving such a cruel and sad ending in reality.
The doctors and nurses at the hospital donated generously to help Sister Xia with follow-up treatment.
In fact, this point has also been criticized for the suspension of the plot. I don’t believe that there are really medical workers who will spend money and efforts to save a patient they have never met. I think they must have never heard of Peng Ximei’s story.
In 2009, the skinny Peng Ximei, with a huge belly that was extremely disproportionate to her body, was leaning on a stool in the hospital corridor. She was not about to give birth, but was quietly waiting for death here.
She stayed here alone, with no will to live. She sat in the hospital all day and night, hoping that someone would help collect her body after she died.
But maybe she didn't deserve to die. Just when she was waiting in the hospital and counting down her life, a group of doctors passed by her.
Peng Ximei's huge belly attracted the attention of one of them. Who would have thought that the person who asked was Xu Kecheng, the director of Fuda Cancer Hospital in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province.
After a detailed conversation, Dean Xu learned about Peng Ximei’s tragic life experience.
Her belly was actually shaped like this due to the "fertility-inducing remedies" obtained by her husband's family.
After drinking bowl after bowl of bitter medicine at her husband's house, Peng Ximei's belly grew bigger day by day.
After seeing her for a year, Peng Ximei still showed no signs of giving birth. Her husband’s family took her to the hospital for a check-up, only to find that what was in her belly was not a baby, but fluid and tumors!
When her husband's family saw that not only was she not pregnant, but she was also seriously ill, they immediately decided to kick her out of the house.
After dragging her heavy body around for more than two years, Peng Ximei couldn't hold on anymore, so she came to the corridor of the hospital and prepared to spend the last days of her life.
After learning about Peng Ximei's tragic life experience, Dean Xu immediately expressed his willingness to treat her for free, and personally coordinated the ambulance to help Peng Ximei be transferred to his own hospital.
After a series of rigorous examinations and surgeries, more than 60 kilograms of abdominal fluid and tumors in Peng Ximei's body were finally removed.
The operation went very smoothly. As time passed, Peng Ximei recovered better and better, and gradually returned to a healthy life.
Dean Xu not only saved Peng Ximei's life, but also gave her a sum of money as "start-up capital" to help her reintegrate into society.
And Peng Ximei did not disappoint Director Xu's expectations. She stayed in the hospital and became a volunteer, constantly helping more needy patients and passing on the warmth that Director Xu Kecheng gave her to more people.
Although the reality is cruel and difficult, there are always compassionate doctors who will do their best to make "kindness and kindness" truly take root.
Hospital is the place where you see the most joys and sorrows in the world.
Rather than showing off medical knowledge and showing off technology, this drama shows more about the complexity of human nature.
For example, one of the important reasons why Zheng Ren's father chose to leave this world in despair was because of an emergency treatment.
The following contains spoilers, if you mind, just scroll down quickly.
When there was a high-speed serial car accident, a family member first came to the hospital with his mother who had suffered heavy leg pressure. He felt that the mother should receive treatment first. However, Zheng Ren’s father decided to go to the hospital first after assessing the injured people who were sent there one after another. Rescue a little girl who is in critical condition with a fractured cervical spine.
In the end, the patient who came to the hospital first had his leg amputated and was left with a lifelong disability. This was very difficult for his family to accept. He believed that he had sent his mother to the hospital first, but the doctor went to save the little girl from a wealthy family first. The rich don't care whether the poor live or die."
But he didn't understand that there was no first come, first served approach to death. If he didn't save the little girl first, she would probably die.
In fact, when the patient was delivered, the muscle tissue in the leg had been necrotic due to long-term heavy pressure, and the doctor immediately called other colleagues to operate on the patient.
But in the end, he was misunderstood by the patient, spread rumors, and was stigmatized overnight.
There is another mother who felt unwell for a long time, but she was busy taking care of her daughter and family and did not take it to heart.
Sometimes she felt really uncomfortable, so she relied on laxatives, enemas, and gastrointestinal decompression. However, these methods only treated the symptoms and not the root cause. When she couldn't bear it anymore and was sent to the hospital, it was discovered that she was suffering from very serious abdominal cocoon syndrome. , and went directly into the ICU.
However, facing the weak wife, her husband asked hysterical questions.
Maybe sisters will think, how could this husband be so unkind?
But in fact, he was also sick.
As a corporate executive, he has been under heavy pressure all year round in order to give his wife and daughter a good life.
In order to maintain energy, he usually drank coffee instead of water. As a result, his caffeine intake exceeded the standard, which successively led to mental behavioral disorders, acute renal failure and other diseases.
On the surface, their family is a very enviable family of three. The father works hard to make money for his wife and daughter, the mother takes care of the family in an orderly manner, and the daughter is well-behaved, sensible, lively and lovely.
But under this perfect appearance, there is an unspeakable pressure that middle-aged people are silently bearing.
There are many such detailed observations in the play, which are thought-provoking. There is no malicious vilification or one-sided sensationalism, but an impartial presentation of everyone's position.
It is said that doctors have a bodhisattva heart and thunderous methods, but the balance between skillful hands and benevolent heart is really difficult to balance.
Doctors are not cold or inhumane, but when they put on this uniform, they must immediately pick up their mood and treat the next patient, which may be another fierce battle.
After watching this heart-wrenching drama, Mi Li’s mother only had one thought, which is to cherish the present, cherish yourself, cherish the people around you, express your love loudly every day, and don’t leave any regrets to yourself.
If the sisters are short of drama, you might as well watch "Surgery Live Room", it's good to watch.
