The personal experience of an old doctor

A surgeon surnamed Sun, in 1993, when he was studying in a hospital in Beijing, he met the chief of surgery of a coal mine hospital with him surnamed Li, a particularly experienced surgical director, who was amiable and amiable, and was the leader of our refresher group. The two men soon became good friends. On the evening of the weekend on August 15 of that year, the two of them ate at the snack department near the hospital, and they were in the same country, and the topic quickly changed from family life to the current medical treatment. Director Li suddenly asked Xiaosun a surprised sentence: "Do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?" ”。 If it were someone else, XiaoSun might be joking, because Xiaosun is a pure materialist.

Director Li told Xiaosun a story that he had personally experienced. In the coal city mine hospital in the north, it is not known when it began, and their mine hospital's handling of dead and injured bodies became the business of surgeons and nurses, and after disposing of the corpses, they only added 3 to the monthly salary of surgeons and nurses according to the standards of many years ago. 5 yuan for corpse cooking (the specific amount of money seems to be not so much I can't remember, in the early 80s, medical care for corpses was the same as the cost of corpse cooking).

At that time, on a windy night in late autumn, a patient who had just been buried by coal and needed to be disposed of, and it happened that he was in charge of the administrative duty of the hospital, and Director Qiu, who was personally present at the scene of everything, worked with the young doctor on duty to wipe the body and suture the wound. In order to reduce unnecessary odors, they opened the windows and let the autumn wind blow into the room of the disposal room. "I chose to be inside near the window, standing on the side of the corpse's head, and the room in the disposal room was filled with plastic and iron barrels of different sizes, all filled with water and the disposal of the good corpses," he said, as he ate: "Until the middle of the night, when the wind was stronger, his co-workers and the mine leaders left, leaving only me and the young doctor on duty. I was very good at disposing of the body, and soon we had stitched up the wounds of the corpse, and the rest was to wipe the body again and send it to the morgue." He blew the young doctor to pick up speed, and he started from the beginning, and the young doctor began to wipe the body from his feet. At midnight the body was quickly disposed of, and the young doctor turned his back on him and began pouring buckets and buckets of wastewater into the lower sink by the door of the disposal room.

Naturally, I said to myself, "Dude, I've cleaned you up, so you can go on your way." While tucking his hand outside the bed toward his body, guess what!!! He paused abruptly and said, "This corpse suddenly grabbed my wrist fiercely." I was shocked to hear him continue, "I suddenly felt a strong grip on the cold hand of the corpse, and I really felt that he still had the undried potion in his hand, and then it was released and scattered under the bed." I was almost scared silly, my first consciousness wanted to run out, but immediately many years of clinical experience immediately told me that I could not run! ”。 I was cold at the moment, the chopsticks fell on the ground and did not pick them up, quietly listening to him continue: "I saw our young doctor pouring water at the door, strictly blocking the door, I think he will be frightened when he runs, and there are so many half-full buckets on the ground that I can't run in three or two steps." And in any case, the body of that day must be disposed of, and who will continue to dispose of it that night? And there will be a reflection of the explosion in our hospital. I don't believe there are ghosts. If I had escaped, how could I have come back to dispose of the body? ”。

He did not run, and did not say anything, continued to rub the patient, his mind blank, insisting on holding on to the white sheet on the corpse with perseverance, and at the moment when he covered his face, he saw the pale and quiet face of the dead body, until the patient was sent to the morgue. "Does your young doctor know about this?" I asked the bottom line. "I didn't say anything that night, it was just too long. It wasn't until the doctor went to work on the third day that I told them about it in front of everyone in the surgeons. Almost to the point of making him stupid, he asked me why I didn't tell him. I said that if I ran or shouted, the bucket full of water on the ground would not be able to run out in a hurry, and I would frighten the young doctor, and I did not believe the ghostly theory, such a big thing would not be said to have an impact, and who would dare to continue to dispose of the body."

Xiao Sun asked him why this phenomenon appeared. He said he had also studied the phenomenon with his colleagues and could reasonably explain the problem——- that day, they used a lot of normal saline when disposing of the body, and there were aluminum basins, scissors and forceps and copper water leakers. These produce the effect of a primary battery. The corpse was newly dead, the nerve could not be a cytological degree of death, stimulated by electricity, reflexively shook his hand, just when he was fiddling with the corpse's arm, the corpse's hand grabbed him fiercely, and when the electricity disappeared, it was released again.

Many experts at Xiaosun Continuing Education Hospital have discussed this issue and support this explanation. It seems that an old doctor must not only have advanced medical skills, but also have composure and calmness. This is great for dealing with everyday things. (Suppose, like some people, Director Qiu saw this scene and ran out without thinking, shouting, what would it look like?) The medical community will cause a big debate, new doctors may be scared out of the disease, the next work no one dares to do, even clinicians in the medical community say that there are ghosts, and really have been caught, then the social repercussions——- in short, very terrible! ）
