Chapter 328: Academic studies should not involve personal emotions [328] Chapter 328: Academic studies should not involve personal emotions [328] “The growth rate of your tumor is too rapid. Don’t be fooled by her not having the enlarged abdomen like other sick children, but other cases are discovered late. Hers wasn’t discovered late. It’s highly malignant. You might want to start with chemotherapy first.”
“Chemotherapy is needed, but only after surgery can be done. I’ve done my research, that says this type of disease must be surgically removed first; otherwise, it’s not effective.”
“The problem is that it’s very difficult to remove it completely. It’s a multifocal tumor. The doctors at the children’s hospital should have advised you the same, to try chemotherapy first to see the situation, then discuss whether surgery is an option. Being anxious is of no use.”
As Father Yazhi said this, he realized begging was useless, and so probably was kneeling. The male doctor before him was like a block of ice, immovable, only discussing medical issues without talking about human emotions.
What’s the use of talking about emotions with patients like these? Pity is useless. Medically, we’re not capable of saving them at this stage; we can only follow the treatment procedures step by step and take it slow.
Teacher Tan was as clear and cold as a mirror in his mind, and Xie Wanying knew: with patients like these, you can’t give the family too much hope, or else once the patient dies, the family will collapse just the same.
However, Father Yazhi’s gaze suddenly shifted towards her, his eyes misty as he looked at the intern badge on her chest, as if grasping at any straw in a dream: whoever it was, even an intern, as long as they could help him and his daughter.
Taken aback by the patient’s fixed gaze, Xie Wanying had a sudden idea and turned to discuss with her teacher, “Teacher Tan, why don’t we hold on to the medical records for now? We can discuss them back at the department before giving a response.”
Dragging out the time, giving the patient’s family a buffering psychological process.
“Yes, you doctors take a look at the medical records first!” Yuanyuan’s Dad immediately grasped onto her words.
Whatever little schemes this student had in mind couldn’t escape his eyes. Tan Kelin curled his lips slightly, then thought, if the previous education didn’t work, why not try with this ready opportunity?
Everyone was waiting for him to speak, with Yazhi’s Dad swallowing hard.
“Yazhi, say thank you to Doctor Uncle first!” Father Yazhi coached his daughter on how to proceed.
Tan Kelin immediately said, “No need.”
He was a doctor whose duty was to treat people; there was no need for thanks at the drop of a hat.
“Dr. Tan–” At that moment, Father Yazhi was on the verge of tears.
“Thank you, Uncle.” Yazhi suddenly understood what her father was teaching her and opened her little mouth to speak.
The little girl in front of him was certainly clever. Tan Kelin’s eyes flickered as he said to the patient’s family, “We’ll keep your daughter’s medical records here for now. We’ll take them back to our department to discuss, but the outcome may not be what you wish for.”
Seeing the doctor relent, Father Yazhi picked up his daughter and thanked him repeatedly.
Xie Wanying noted down their contact information.
Finally, they finished seeing the last patient.
Grabbing the stethoscope from the table and pocketing it, Tan Kelin glanced at the student, who was diligently writing the medical records, and instructed, “There’s a departmental discussion on Friday afternoon, starting at five o’clock. Since this is the patient you want to take on, you should prepare in advance and present your views at the meeting.”
The teacher had actually given her such a rare opportunity, and Xie Wanying nodded happily, “Yes, Teacher.”
She had really taken it on herself, clearly the weekend’s lesson hadn’t scared her enough to stop interacting with high-risk patients for a while. Tan Kelin frowned, his misty dark eyes seemingly on the verge of rain. It was as if he exhaled a cold breath as he spoke sternly, “When you present your views at the meeting, remember you’re a doctor. Academic discussions should not be mixed with personal feelings.”
“I understand, Teacher,” Xie Wanying acknowledged her teacher’s words carefully.
