"I'm too afraid of losing my child, there are two children above who also suddenly appeared in this situation, they are gone, this is already the third child, if there is a cure for the child's disease, no matter how difficult it is, I will take the child to see, son, when will you wake up?" 」 In the hospital ward, Bobo's mother Ah Tao is crying incessantly...
Luoyang, Henan Province. On the evening of August 27, 2021, Bobo, who was playing on the playground, suddenly lost consciousness, his limbs twitched, passers-by called an emergency call, and Bobo was pulled to the hospital by ambulance for rescue. Because of respiratory cardiac arrest, Bobo caused ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy, and the child's acute circulatory failure, malignant arrhythmia, central respiratory failure, the doctor immediately arranged for the intensive care unit.
"Bobo had two older sisters and an older brother, and unfortunately, the eldest sister was 24 years old, and my brother was 18 years old, and he suddenly fell into a coma, and he died before he could find the cause of the disease." Whenever she talks about her son's condition, her mother Ah Tao will burst into tears. Today, Bobo has been in the hospital's intensive care unit for more than a month before his condition is relieved and transferred to the general ward. After the child is unconscious, every hour needs to turn over and wipe and massage the whole body, Ah Tao can not take care of it alone, it is the couple who take turns in the hospital to take care of it.
After staying in the ICU ward for more than 20 days, Bobo began to resume spontaneous breathing, opened his eyes, and the doctor said that he could be transferred to the general ward after a few more days of observation. This good news made the whole family seem to see hope. Unfortunately, the day before Bobo was about to be transferred to the general ward, the child's breathing suddenly became weaker and weaker, and the danger happened again.
After repeated illnesses, after many rescues, Bobo was out of danger of life, and after a full month in the intensive care unit, he was finally transferred to the general ward. In order to get better treatment, Bobo was transferred to the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Science and Technology and Luoyang City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine for treatment. Right now, BoBo, who has been treated for half a year, has not yet regained consciousness, and can only occasionally open his eyes. Ah Tao accompanies her son every day, constantly massages, and softly calls her son's name, she believes that there is hope for perseverance.
The A Tao family is an ordinary rural family, with an annual income of less than 20,000 yuan. Before the child fell ill, her husband Aaron went to the construction site to do odd jobs in his spare time, and his life was barely passable. After the child fell unconscious, the two of them have been caring for their son in the hospital, almost cutting off their financial resources. In order to treat the children, they also owe hundreds of thousands of foreign debts. The doctor said that the child needs continuous rehabilitation, but this time will be very long, and the treatment fee will cost hundreds of thousands or more. In order to make his son's treatment uninterrupted, the child's father, in addition to taking care of the child, went to the construction site near the hospital as a temporary worker to earn money as soon as he had time, he said that he did not dare to go too far away from the hospital, afraid that the child would not be able to come back. Bobo's second sister is now in high school, it is a time of intense study, she is also particularly worried about her brother, in order not to worry her parents, all she can do is study well and take care of herself.
Bobo is now unable to eat and relies on his mother to feed with a needle to survive. The hospital also invited relevant experts to develop a detailed treatment plan after a detailed understanding of Bobo's situation, and ecmo surgery will be considered when the child's brain shows signs of reversal. The doctor said that the cost of bobo's post-operation and treatment is expected to be more than 400,000 yuan, as long as the treatment is adhered to, the child's recovery hope is great. The doctor's words brought a glimmer of light to the Ah Tao family, who were struggling in the dark.
Bobo's early treatment has made them debt-ridden, the later treatment fee is like a mountain that overwhelms them, relatives and friends can borrow everything they can borrow, there is really no other way. Looking at the thick list of hospitalizations in his hand, Ah Tao said firmly: No matter how difficult it is, I must do everything I can to keep my child's life.
