After being fired, I became the light of medicine

Chapter 23 Howling
"Okay, okay, don't worry, we will do our best to treat you."

As a grassroots doctor, Feng Xuemei often encounters patients' families like the middle-aged woman. After hurriedly saying a few words of comfort, she turned her eyes to the medical record book handed to her.

After quickly scanning a few pages, she confirmed that the 18-year-old girl in front of her was indeed suffering from "severe aplastic anemia."

He subconsciously glanced at Zhou Xiaomei, then his eyes fell on the middle-aged woman, frowning slightly:
"Sister, your daughter's condition is indeed very dangerous now!"

"You can see that the platelets and red blood cells are only in the single digits. In this case, you must be hospitalized immediately for treatment, otherwise your life will be in danger."

Upon hearing that her life was in danger, the middle-aged woman suddenly panicked and nodded hurriedly.

Seeing this, Feng Xuemei didn't say anything more and quickly wrote out the admission form.

"Take the bill and go pay the bill right now, then go directly to the inpatient department. Don't delay!"

The middle-aged woman nodded timidly, then turned around and prepared to leave with Zhou Xiaomei. But at this moment, Zhou Xiaomei, who had been sitting there without saying anything, suddenly looked at Feng Xuemei and asked in a low voice:
"Doctor, I want to ask, if I am hospitalized, how long will it take before I can be discharged?"

Feng Xuemei was obviously stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a moment, she explained:

"Sister, your illness is a bit serious. If the treatment is effective, you should be able to be discharged from the hospital in 20 days. If the treatment is average, it may take a month..."

"But the most important thing for you now is to get well and not think too much."

Zhou Xiaomei immediately lowered her head, her eyes unable to hide her disappointment.

At this time, the middle-aged woman finally reacted.

"Doctor, can we not stay in the hospital? My daughter will take the college entrance examination in more than a month. What will happen to her if she stays in the hospital for a month..."

As she spoke, she hurriedly took out a piece of paper from her bag and anxiously handed it to Feng Xuemei.

"Doctor, yesterday the doctor at our county hospital said you have this medicine, which is very effective in treating this disease."

"So we came all the way here, can you give us this medicine?"

Feng Xuemei looked down and saw the words "Qingshan Avaqubopa Tablets" written on the paper.

Sure enough, it was just as she thought.

She sighed in her heart, if she really used "Avatrombopag Tablets" together with blood transfusion and infusion, it might be possible to stabilize the condition within a week.

but……

She shook her head:
"We did have this new drug in clinical trials before, but now it has been suspended. We will have to wait for approval before we can use it again."

"Stopped?"

The middle-aged woman suddenly looked disappointed, and after a moment she asked anxiously:
"When will it be approved and used?"

Feng Xuemei shook her head:
"I don't know the exact time, maybe half a year or a year. However, if you really want to use it, there is a foreign product called 'Avatropol' on the market that can be used as an alternative, but it's a bit expensive, about 7800 yuan a box."

"According to the little girl's condition, she needs to take the medicine for at least two months, at least two boxes."

7800 yuan a box?
The middle-aged woman was stunned. She had never thought that there would be medicine in the world that cost 7800 yuan per box!
An expression of surprise appeared in Feng Xuemei's eyes, and she couldn't help but sigh. She knew that such a price was simply unaffordable for an ordinary family.

but,

Just then, the stunned middle-aged woman suddenly looked over and seemed to have made up her mind!
"Doctor, just write me a prescription and I'll go get it right away!"

"Mom..." As soon as the words fell, Zhou Xiaomei beside her burst into tears!
"Mom, no need. It's not easy for you and dad to work and earn money. Just let me stay in the hospital."

"More than 20 days won't make much difference. Besides, I can take the books to the ward to study on my own. It really won't make much difference!"

The middle-aged woman couldn't stop her tears from flowing down. She looked at her daughter deeply, her heart aching:
"Little sister, I'm sorry, it's my fault that I'm useless. I'm sorry for you!"

The door of the diagnosis room was open, and hoarse crying sounds spread into the corridor. Everyone felt the same way at this moment.

Feng Xuemei also felt a little uncomfortable. Although she had seen too many similar situations, when she was really in it again, who could be so heartless?
She sighed in her heart, and thought that the matter would just pass like this, but unexpectedly the middle-aged woman suddenly stopped crying and shook her head:
"no!"

"Little sister, your grades are so good. You have to rely on this college entrance examination to make a name for yourself in life. I can't hold you back!"

"I'm going to call your uncle to borrow money right now. I'm going to cure you even if I have to sell everything I have. I won't let your future be affected!"

"mom!"

"No need, really no need!"

Zhou Xiaomei has already burst into tears.

"I know you love me, and I know you're doing this for my own good, but I secretly checked online last night and found out that I have severe aplastic anemia, which is incurable and I'll have to take medicine for the rest of my life!"

"You and dad work so hard to earn money. If you buy me such expensive medicine now, how will our family live in the future?"

"You still have my brother. I will have to take medicine for a long time and will be a burden to you. I can't ruin this family because of me!"

"So, I beg you, I know you love me, but!"

"I beg you, our family can't afford such expensive medicine!"

Wow!
The middle-aged woman completely broke down and burst into tears.

"When I came here, the doctor told me that the medicine was free. Why is it being reviewed out of nowhere?"

"This is a life-saving drug, a drug that saves people, why does it need to be reviewed?"

"Country, are you really not going to care about us, the grassroots people?"

The hoarse voice pierced Feng Xuemei's heart with every word, and the patients watching on the scene couldn't help but echo it.
At this time, it was Zhou Xiaomei who had just burst into tears, wiped away her tears, calmed herself down, and comforted her:

"Mom, don't say that."

"Our teacher said that now that our country is strong, the motherland will not forget her people."

"Didn't the doctor just say that it's under review? I think it won't be long before it's approved, and then we can all take this medicine!"

Feng Xuemei was suddenly stunned and took a deep look at Zhou Xiaomei in front of her.

I’m only 18 years old!
She couldn't believe that this 18-year-old girl could say "The motherland will never forget her people" in such a difficult and desperate time.

what is this? !!

Perhaps this is faith and hope.

Suddenly, she felt very upset and she had to do something!
