My daughter Yue Yue just turned 10 this year. She was hospitalized for a week for allergic purpura last month. 10 days later, her occult blood was 2+ and her red blood cells were as high as 98. Director Chen of Pediatrics suggested that we go to the provincial children's hospital for examination and diagnosis as soon as possible so as not to miss the best treatment period. I asked Director Chen nervously, "What about the children's studies?" Is the worst result to drop out of school? Director Chen sighed and said, "Now we can only pay attention to children's health." If it is nephritis caused by purpura, you should take at least half a year off school. If the situation is serious, it may take several years to recover, and the treatment cost is as high as100000 yuan. "My wife and I have been speechless for a long time, and the monthly mortgage of 2,000 yuan makes us overwhelmed. If you add high treatment costs, it will add insult to injury to the working class.
My daughter never comes late for school and leaves early, and her academic performance has always been among the best. Dropping out of school was like a bolt from the blue for her. After a brief discussion in the kitchen, my wife and I decided not to tell Guangdong the bad news for the time being.
The next day, our father and daughter will go to Guangzhou Children's Hospital. In the evening, my wife and I were busy packing clothes and luggage. Yue Yue gently pushed open the door and whispered, "Dad, Mom, should I bring my schoolbag?" I paused and immediately replied: "Good, good! Let's go to Guangzhou to study while seeing a doctor. " The wife turned quietly and wiped the tears from her eyes.
At six o'clock in the morning, my daughter and I rushed to Guangzhou Children's Hospital, and there were hundreds of people waiting in line to register. Register for medical records and get a card to find a doctor. After the test results came out, it was 10 in the morning. Director Deng of the Department of Nephrology carefully looked at the examination results, which made my heart tense again. She patiently explained the conditions in Guangdong and Guangdong: "The child has excessive occult blood and serious hematuria. The diagnosis was purpura nephritis. The treatment cycle is relatively long, and it is certain to suspend school for half a year. You should have long-term mental preparation. In addition, the diet should be light, spicy, fishy, seafood, eggs, milk and other foods must be avoided. After the blood test report comes out, I will prescribe drugs for the children together. Most importantly, I want to remind your parents that no matter how serious the child is, you should not be pessimistic. Let the child keep her happy nature, which will help the treatment. Remember, optimism is also a good medicine. "
I ran to the bathroom for a cigarette. The person in the mirror looks haggard and anxious. I washed my cold face, wiped my hair behind my head and took a deep breath to relax myself. I just remembered that Guangdong and I didn't have breakfast. I bought two steamed buns and swallowed them with the mineral water from the hospital. When crossing the zebra crossing, I quickly escaped from the depression and dignity of the hospital and went to the "old shop in Guangdong" to bring back a breakfast.
Looking at the pots of flowers in the urban green belt, I took a deep breath. The air in Guangzhou is really good. The sweet smiles of the volunteers of the Asian Games made me relaxed and calm, and I also gave them a sincere smile in return.
When I walked lightly back to the waiting hall of the hospital with breakfast, Yue Yue bowed his head with a dignified expression. Her figure is as helpless and timid as Andersen's The Little Match Girl, and her big eyes are full of anxiety and tension. I lovingly opened the snack box and teased her in the vernacular I just learned: "Xiu Jie (Xiao), why don't you have breakfast?" Li Dou (inside) Hi (yes) Guangzhou's time-honored shredded chicken rice noodles are delicious ... "My daughter giggled:" Dad, your spoken English is so ugly! "My daughter insisted that I eat two bites, and then she swallowed the steamed rice noodles with shredded chicken.
After coming back from Guangzhou, in order to get our daughter's cooperation, my wife and I decided to tell her the illness thoroughly, so that Guangdong and Guangdong could be psychologically prepared. Our daughter's performance surprised us. She said word for word: "Dad, Mom, I have long known that nephritis needs a long time to recuperate, and my classmates piled up a lot of paper cranes to encourage me." Please rest assured! I will definitely bravely overcome my illness and return to school. "
Our family of four began to readjust their lives. My wife is responsible for my daughter's three meals a day in Guangdong and my son Xixi's transfer to kindergarten. I have to be busy with my work during the day, and I have to cancel all social activities at night to help Guangdong catch up on her homework. The most important thing is not to make her feel pessimistic and bored, and to help her find her confidence and happiness. Guangdong Guangdong didn't like to eat vegetables and was picky about food before. After coming back from Guangzhou Children's Hospital, whenever I see vegetables, Guangdong will ask, "Dad, are vegetables high in vitamins?" Then I will eat more! "Guangdong Guangdong swallow, chewing the food. It seems that this is a panacea, and the child has really grown up and is sensible. I have strengthened my belief in optimism when I encounter difficulties. At the dinner table of our family, we temporarily abandoned the spicy fishy smell, and my wife and I agreed to share joys and sorrows with our daughter Guangdong.
Under the orange light, my wife sat knitting a sweater and watched her son write and draw. Guangdong and I quietly explained the text and exercises, and the family forgot their illness and troubles and immersed themselves in a pleasant learning atmosphere.
At 8: 30 pm, when the study is over, everyone must come up with a riddle or tell a joke. Xixi, a five-year-old son, never tells jokes or riddles. He always takes out his reserved programs: "Once upon a time, there was a mountain, a temple in the mountain, and an old monk in the temple. The old monk is telling a story. What are you talking about? " Once upon a time, there was a mountain with a temple in it ... Just then, I suddenly saw a monk knocking on a wooden fish and laughing my head off. "。 After half a month of nursed back to health and taking medicine, her daughter's condition was basically suppressed, and Director Deng said that she would continue to consolidate treatment.
My cousin took a cake to travel to Guangdong and asked her neighbors for the exact address of our home. Uncle Zhang, a neighbor, said strangely, "I haven't heard that their children are sick?" Laugh loudly every night! "Cousin eagerly entered the room and pulled Guangdong and Guangdong. She looked at it carefully and was relieved to see that Guangdong and Guangdong were both beautiful. Yue Yue sniffed the cake and quipped, "The doctor and aunt said I can't eat eggs. I must persist until I get well, and then go to my aunt's cake shop to eat enough! "My son Xixi grabbed the cake and shouted as he ran," I'll put the cake in the refrigerator, and when my sister is ready, we'll eat ice cream cake! " "Brothers and sisters chasing frolic laughter echoed in the humble living room again.
