Chapter 419: The feeling of helplessness when I can’t help at all
They waited outside the operating room for five hours before Professor Guo and another professor came out of the operating room.
Professor Guo said to the people waiting outside:
"The operation was successfully completed. We have repaired the injured tendons, but she won't be able to move her entire arm for at least a month. It's best for her to lie down because she has several fractured bones and two broken ribs. Fortunately, her lungs were not injured."
"Also, the shoulder bone in her right shoulder is broken and needs to be fixed. So, for the time being, it's best for her not to get out of bed. She needs special care."
"Are there any internal injuries? When I rescued her, she was vomiting blood."
"Yes, it's not serious, you need to take care of it. Next, I'll prescribe some medicine for recovery, and Dr. Yang will give her some acupuncture to help with recovery. But her left hand may not be fully recovered. We only corrected it this time, and all the muscles in her left hand are injured."
"How much hatred must have caused someone to do such a fatal act? If it had been delayed any longer, the arm would have had to be amputated. But we can't say it can be saved now. We have to wait and see. If it doesn't work, we'll have to amputate another section."
When Sister Liao, who had just woken up, heard this, she burst into tears again.
After the patient's injuries were treated, they pushed her out. In order to make it easier to take care of her, they decided to let her stay in the ward on the third floor.
The hospital knew that this patient was special, so they opened a separate ward for him.
The nurse personally sent the person to the bed, but Liang Xinyue did not wake up. The doctor only said that she had been given anesthesia.
Regarding the subsequent care, Professor Xie and several professors from the province believed that professional personnel should be used for care, because there were four broken bones in her body and the location of the fracture could not be determined yet.
Especially the right shoulder and left arm, they need someone to take care of them.
After the commander asked Professor Xie, he kept two female nurses and one female doctor from the people they brought. Professor Xie also wanted to stay, and Professor Yang, an old Chinese medicine doctor, also wanted to stay.
The hospital opened two more wards for their temporary use.
The commander said to Gu Sanding:
"It's useless for you to stay. This elder sister, please stay. You go back first and make sure to take good care of the children at home."
"Political Commissar Xu has arranged for another military dependent to help take care of the children. This is Sister Liao, the wife of our Armed Forces Minister Gu, and she is very close to Sister Liang."
"Then please ask Sister Liao to stay here, and this soldier to stay here to run errands as well. You go back first and tell them about the situation here. I think everyone is worried. Don't worry, I will have someone stay here."
"Yes!"
Gu Sanding also knew that he couldn't leave, as he had to go back and look after the regiment as there were several missions to be carried out recently.
So he explained some things to Sister Liao and Xiao Wei, and gave all the money he had to Sister Liao:
"Take it first. Whether it's for Sister Xinyue's use or for your daily needs, take it first."
The commander smiled as he watched, but then he started to curse:
"Who wants your money? Don't worry, I will take care of their expenses here."
It was getting dark, and thinking that everyone at home must be worried and unable to sleep, Gu Sanding left first.
After some further discussion between the army commander and the armed forces minister and others, they also left without leaving anyone behind.
The nursing staff who stayed behind were divided into shifts under Professor Xie's arrangement, with two people in each shift, changing shifts every four hours. Those who could sleep should go to sleep for a while first.
"Everyone needs to rest. Resting is for better work tomorrow and better care of patients."
Professor Xie stayed behind to observe the patient's condition first.
Fortunately, there were three beds in the ward, so Professor Xie leaned on one of the beds to rest for a while, while two comrades who were responsible for her care stayed by Liang Xinyue's side.
Sister Liao came over to take a look. She gently lifted the quilt and looked at Liang Xinyue under the quilt. She was covered in bruises and it was unknown how many times she had been beaten. Seeing this, Sister Liao couldn't help but want to cry again.
How painful this must be.
Gu Sanding drove very fast by himself. When he returned to the county, he naturally went to Liang Xinyue's home first.
Sure enough, not only Aunt Li and Dad Liang didn't sleep, even Minister Gu and Director Ren were here and didn't sleep either.
Especially since Director Ren brought his wife with him, thinking they could help in any way they could.
Liang Jun squatted outside the door. He couldn't accept that his sister was injured again and was sent to the city for rescue. How serious must her injury be?
But when I asked my father, he said he didn't see the person either and didn't know how serious the injury was.
He couldn't help but complain to his father:
“You don’t even go and take a look.”
Liang's father was silent. It was not that he didn't want to go and see. First, he hadn't found the child yet. He thought that he had several children at home, so he came back to look after them. Second, there were so many leaders there, and he didn't know how to approach them. He could only follow the instructions and come back to look after the children, fearing that the bad guys would come home and hurt the children.
He didn't know before that the so-called bad guys were from the Zhou family. Now that he knew, he was so angry that it felt like his heart was stabbed.
He found that he was of no help at all, and now that his son had said something to him, he didn't know what to say.
As soon as Gu Sanding got out of the car, Liang Jun rushed over:
"Captain Gu... Captain Gu, how is my sister?"
"He's alive. Don't worry, Brother Liang."
The next people who came out were Minister Gu, Director Ren and others who heard the noise. Gu Sanding still walked in to see that there were no children here. It seemed that the children were still asleep.
Sister Yang supported Aunt Li, and it seemed that Aunt Li was very angry.
"Don't worry, the city has transferred experts from the military hospital and the provincial hospital. My sister-in-law is not in danger of life, but because of bone injuries, she will have to stay in the hospital for a longer time. She can't come back for the time being."
Then he looked at Minister Gu and said:
"Sister Liao was left behind to take care of her."
"Of course, it would be best if she goes. She can read and is good friends with Xiao Liang."
Director Ren said:
"Heal your wound first, don't worry about anything here, and don't worry about your family. I will come to see you every day."
Gu Sanding looked at Liang Jun and said:
"I'm most worried about you. You just reported for duty, so the most important thing is to work hard every day. You should take good care of Sister Zhou, work hard, and go home to take care of the family. If the family is stable, I can rest assured that she is recovering over there. Xiao Wei has also stayed here, so don't worry about the hospital over there."
Liang Jun choked up and nodded. Now, he also had the same thought. He was so useless. When his brother-in-law was not around, he thought he could take care of his sister and nephews. But he didn't expect that when something really happened, he couldn't help at all.
