Chapter 988: Fire (Chu Qin extra)
Chapter 988 Fire of Industry (Extra by Chu Chen)
When Chu Chen was very young, his father taught him to be an upright person.
At one time, Chu Chen regarded that teaching as a guideline, until one year his father was framed and imprisoned.
His father is a surgeon with superb medical skills. He has been practicing for more than 20 years and works in a well-known hospital in his hometown. My father had nothing to do with the world. When other colleagues were fighting for the selection of professors or for opportunities for further study, he was the only one who silently did his job well, often just returning home and not having time to eat. After a few mouthfuls, I was hurried away by an emergency call for surgery.
People in the hospital especially like to call Chu Chen's father on duty, because everyone else is busy with salary increases and promotions, but he is the only one who works diligently and down-to-earth, and even allows others to take credit for his achievements and trample on them. Let him climb to a higher position. "Suffering a loss is a blessing." His father said to Chu Chen.
So, although he has superb medical skills, he is so unknown.
When he was a child, Chu Chen once raised his head and asked his father: "Dad, why don't you tell everyone that Director Zhou's tumor removal surgery, Manager Li's difficult diagnosis, and many, many other things... were all done by you?"
The father gently touched his little head: "Son, a doctor's duty is to save lives and heal the wounded. As for fame and wealth? They are all external things. It doesn't matter whether you have them or not."
Chu Chen seemed to understand but not quite.
Chu Chen's mother is a nurse. Whenever her father says this, she will look at him tenderly and admiringly, with a peaceful look on her face, and gently say: "Yes, as long as our family of three can be safe and happy. When we are together, fame and wealth are not important at all."
Their wishes are so plain and simple.
So Chu Chen always thought that if there hadn't been that disaster, maybe when he grew up, he would have become an ordinary person like his parents, doing an unknown job that was beneficial to society. I work hard all day long, but I am satisfied, happy and at peace with a little bit of happiness.
Unfortunately, that disaster struck suddenly.
At that time, a critically ill patient came to the hospital with a terminal malignant tumor that had spread. However, the family members ignored the doctor's advice and insisted on undergoing surgery. All doctors know that surgery is extremely risky. If you are not careful, it will be self-defeating and hasten the death of the patient. However, in this small town, this family has a good background. In order to establish a relationship with them, the attending doctor took the risk and decided to operate.
The attending doctor is not qualified enough to handle such a difficult operation.
He asked Chu Chen’s father to be the surgeon.
But Chu Chen’s father knew the risks involved and refused to say anything. He earnestly advised the attending doctor: "This patient has long been unsuitable for surgery. The probability of success is almost zero. It is better to have conservative treatment and hope to live for a few more days. This is the most responsible and safest approach."
The attending doctor would not listen.
He has already boasted in front of the patient's family that if the operation is terminated at this time, it will not only be a question of whether the patient himself can be saved, but also whether his future will be ruined.
He cried and begged Chu Chen's father, and brought many gifts to their house - Chu Chen was still young at that time, and had never seen so many gilded foreign wines, lively seafood, and bright and exquisite watches... He was dazzled by what he saw. Only then did I realize that there are so many good things in the world...
He secretly looked at his father with greedy eyes, eager for his father to accept it, but his father always shook his head.
The attending doctor knelt down in front of his father and burst into tears. Later, he asked his father one after another: "Doctor Chu, you are the best surgeon in our hospital. If you don't go to the operating table, then I will have to ask Dr. Liu to do the surgery." ! You know, Dr. Liu’s diploma was paid for, and he used to be a veterinarian! He has only performed a few serious operations, let alone such a complicated and difficult operation, and the patient can do it directly! You've been sentenced to death! Can you just bear to watch the patient die miserably on the operating table?"
Father was silent for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement. He finally relented, and the attending doctor left with a lot of gratitude.
He spent a lot of time preparing for the operation, working day and night, going to the research office to look up information, looking up similar cases abroad, and getting the details of the patient from doctors and nurses... He even frowned while eating.
Finally, under the urging of the hospital and family members, I walked onto the operating table.
Chu Chen knew that he had tried his best.
However, doctors are not gods. Although my father performed 100% and made no mistakes in his operation, the patient still fell into a long coma and did not survive the end of that month.
The father was very sad and blamed himself, and said bitterly: "I really regret it. If he had not had to do this operation, he would have been able to survive at least one more month and see his little granddaughter born with his own eyes."
But he is just an ordinary surgeon, and there are some things that he cannot stop.
For the first time, he felt frustrated. Why was he just a low-level doctor without a professional title? If we had more power, would we be able to prevent tragedies from happening?
After the patient died, he remained silent for a long time, burying his head between his arms.
The young Chu Chen and his mother were worried about his condition, but they didn't expect that this was just the beginning of a nightmare.
The family members of the deceased made a fuss. They blocked the sky in that little-known town and fiercely demanded an explanation from the hospital.
The hospital could not withstand the pressure and pushed Chu Chen’s father out.
Chu Chen’s father was shocked. All his operations were precise and perfect. Every surgical step complied with the regulations. He had a clear conscience. How could he be considered responsible for this accident? After all, it should be the responsibility of those decision-makers who insist on operating on patients!
But the charges the hospital convicted him of were so ridiculous—surgical errors and medical malpractice.
They said that Chu Chen's father had been practicing medicine for many years and had not even been awarded a professor. In order to become a professor as soon as possible, he was so obsessed that he patted his chest and said that he was qualified for this operation, and encouraged the attending doctor to do this. Bad decision to "have surgery". Not only that, he also made many mistakes during the operation. It was his poor technique that directly led to the patient's death.
My father was not angry and resisted, but he could not argue.
The attending doctor who had cried and knelt at his feet, begging him to take the operation, had already changed his face and looked at him with contempt, in front of his family members and other colleagues in the hospital. "Dr. Chu, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. If you hadn't patted your chest to ensure that the operation would be successful, how could I have dared to agree to such a dangerous operation for the patient's family? I didn't expect you to be so corrupt in medical ethics. It's so disappointing." "
