The husband and wife were originally the same forest bird, and when the big disaster came, one of my patients was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer at the age of 36 this year. He owned two houses in Shanghai and was a fortune 500 mechanical device before he was hospitalized

Husbands and wives were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when the great trouble came

One of my patients was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer just 36 years old this year.

He owns two houses in Shanghai, and before he was hospitalized, he was the head of the China region of a fortune 500 machinery and equipment company, and he was a successful person in the eyes of others. But strangely enough, for more than a month, he had never seen his family come to visit and accompany the bed, and it was not until one day when he was on night shift that he learned about the man's story.

At eight o'clock in the evening, I was writing medical records in the office, and when I heard a knock at the door, I said please come in, and then I watched him come in. Although he is my patient, but for a long time, I will slowly talk about the homely routines outside the disease, and there will be more talking.

The other person was a little thin, his face was sallow, he walked with a hunched waist, and his original height of one meter and eight meters now looked only one meter seven. I pointed to a stool next to me, motioned for him to sit down, asked him what was wrong, and he said thank you and sat down. He said his stomach was starting to hurt a little bit again, and I knew he was getting pain injections every day, so I told him to give him a shot before going to bed. Then he asked what the results of today's test were, and said that the director was busy during the day and did not have time to see. So I opened the case, showed him the results of the day's test, and analyzed some abnormal indicators.

Later, I asked curiously, you are married, how come you have never seen your wife come? At this moment he paused suddenly, and his expression became a little frustrated. I saw that his mood was not right, so I quickly said, I just casually asked, ah, do not have to answer. He spoke suddenly, and his tone seemed very calm.

He and his wife are high school classmates, as soon as they graduated from college, the two of them got married, his family is a rural person, through more than ten years of hard work, finally bought a house in the core area of Shanghai and it is two sets. These ten years of hard work, only sleep four or five hours a day, often have to travel all over the country, and even to the mines, Gobi, is to be able to buy a house in Shanghai and settle down, and later this dream came true, not only settled in Shanghai, but also bought two houses in a good location. But because I was busy with work all the time, I didn't have children. Because he is a hepatitis B carrier, although he has known it for a long time, he thinks that he is so young, there should be no problem. Whether it was staying up late or drinking, I didn't feel uncomfortable. Because I am usually too busy at work, I don't even have time to sleep lazily, let alone time to go to the physical examination until I am hospitalized.

Finally, a year ago, because of the severe bloating to check, the doctor told him that it was advanced liver cancer. At that moment, there was really a feeling that the sky was falling, and his eyes were black and he squatted on the ground. Then he began to actively cooperate with the treatment. But the high cost of treatment, the family's savings were quickly spent, and the parents could not help, so they borrowed a lot of money. His wife, at first, gently advised him to give up, but he did not want to die, who really wanted to die? So the two often quarreled fiercely. But even so, he still had to switch to the latest treatment plan, which was very expensive, just to survive. So he planned to sell a house, but his wife did not agree, and wanted to wait for him to die, and then the two houses were hers.

When he said this, I could feel that his tone was full of anger, and he continued to say that he knew that it would not be long, expensive and unaffordable, so he could only wait to die in the hospital, but he still did not want to die, even if he lived one more day. He kept talking, I didn't interrupt him, I didn't know how to comfort him, I felt that it was superfluous to say anything, so I didn't say anything. He glanced at the time, saw that it was already more than nine o'clock, seemed to realize something, and said very apologetically, sorry, delaying your time.

I said it doesn't matter, you go back to rest early, if it hurts you call me, and then he put his hands on the table, slowly stood up, turned and walked out of the office. I looked at his back and sighed, in the face of interests, human nature is so fragile.

This is a letter from a doctor about a patient who struggles to survive but is abandoned by his wife.

To be honest, I was really shocked to hear this story, is there really such a person in this world? Would you rather give up the life of a loved one for the sake of property? But on second thought, maybe this wife is not wrong from a realistic point of view. One of my relatives was rectal cancer, which later metastasized to multiple organs and left a year after surgery. Their family is really empty of money.

But people have feelings, and their families have experienced more than ten or decades of ups and downs together, knowing that it is impossible to still hold a glimmer of hope, for the faint hope, in order to make themselves feel at ease.

I can't make any comments. But if I were to face it, I wouldn't have the slightest hesitation.
