The March wind was still a bit of winter, so I wrapped my coat tightly and hurried to the hospital. Hung in a cloud of sorrow, I prayed that my father's illness would not be as serious as I had imagined.
Pushing open the door of the ward, the smell of disinfectant water came to my nose. My father's thin body collapsed on the bed, his chest lying together, and it seemed that even breathing became very laborable. I stepped forward, resisted the panic in my heart, and asked, "Dad, how do you feel?"
I looked at him with anxiety, frowned, and said: But the doctor said that Dad's symptoms are already very serious, and they can't be alleviated by just taking medicine, and they must be hospitalized immediately. My voice choked up.
Don't talk stupid! I interrupted my father's words, and tears burst out of my eyes, you old man just feels too sorry for us! We should be filial to you, and we should be able to help now. You can rest assured that the medical expenses and other things, I have already prepared.
Seeing that I was choking badly, my mother hurriedly came over and hugged me and said to my father, "Old man, you should listen to your daughter honestly and cooperate with the treatment." Just say what is missing, and we will do our best.
Seeing that my father had made up his mind, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, and said firmly: Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely do my best to treat your illness, even if I use all my money, I will never be soft!
At this moment, the worries and fears in my heart seemed to be swept away. I secretly made up my mind that I must fight the disease to the death, even if I put all my belongings together, and I must pave the way for my father's recovery! It was he who had worked all his life to raise us and raised us, and now he should be filial to repay him for his difficulties.
I borrowed tens of thousands of yuan from my sister, plus my own savings for a few years, and finally made up a considerable amount of expenses. I started consulting the hospital for the check-up process and preparing all the supplies my father needed for hospitalization. Everything is moving forward in an orderly manner.
Still, I often feel a little bit of gloom drifting through my mind, fearing that the money will not be enough, or that the treatment will not be effective. In the dead of night, I would repeatedly ponder the possibilities, and I would be uneasy.
However, whenever I saw my father's deterioration, there was no room for other distractions in my heart. I secretly made up my mind that I would do whatever it takes, even if it is to endure it for a few days, as long as I can make my father recover as soon as possible, which is my greatest wish!
I cried bitterly, almost in a semi-crazy desperate situation. But even so, deep down in my heart, I still firmly believe that as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I must never give up!
Hanging up, I sat limply on a bench in the hospital hallway, tears streaming down my face. What the doctor said just now is still echoing in my mind: my father's condition is very serious, and he needs to be operated on as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to continue.
I covered my face with my hands, painfully thinking about all the hard work and money I had put in in the past month, and I never expected to fall into such a desperate situation. The cost of the surgery was so high that I couldn't afford it, and my mother and I had enough savings to do it.
Just when I was at a loss, my mother sat down, patted me lightly on the back, choked up and said, "Daughter, don't worry, don't be afraid, there must be other ways." You've done your best, and you've used all your savings, and there's really nothing else you can do.
Seeing that I was crying bitterly, my mother reached out and took me into her arms, patted me on the back, and said with sadness and tenacity: Don't be like this, you did do everything you could at the beginning, but even so, our family's savings are limited. But as long as there is still a breath alive, there is still a chance, and God will not treat good people badly. Let's think about it again, even if it is to sell the house, we must not just give up!
The mother nodded, and finally a smile appeared on her face: Okay, daughter, then it's decided! With such a filial piety of you, your father and his old man will definitely be moved. Let's sell that room and do whatever it takes, just to get him well as soon as possible!
So, a few hours later, we were able to sell the small house we had bought more than 20 years ago. Although it is only an old small apartment, because of the good location, it also gives us a considerable price. With the last savings we had left, we were able to cover all the costs of the operation.
I finally had enough money in my hand, and I felt a sense of relief that I had never felt before. Yes, in order to treat my father's illness, even if it is to take out our last home, I will not hesitate to do so. After all, my father's life's work was for us, so let's repay his kindness with practical actions now!
Without any hesitation, I immediately handed over all the money I had to the hospital and made an appointment for my father's surgery a week later. During those days, we all secretly prayed that the operation would go well and that my father would be spared.
Finally, the day of surgery came. Early that morning, I stayed outside the operating room, waiting for the good news to come. Just when I was starting to feel a little anxious, the lights in the operating room finally went out, and the doctors did come out of it, and I hurriedly went up to inquire about the operation.
The surgery was successful, the patient's condition was basically under control, and then he only needed to rest for two weeks, and do some routine check-ups and consolidation treatments. The doctor smiled with relief, but I have to remind you of one thing, in order to prevent the recurrence of the disease, the patient will need to recuperate for some time to come, and the cost of living will not be cheap.
My father's illness was so serious that the doctors had clearly warned me that he would need a lot of money for treatment, so how could I afford it all with a momentary amount of money? It's really stretched!
Just as I was in despair, my mother sat down beside me and said in a serious voice, "Daughter, you have done your best, I really don't know what else to do." However, you have to remember that we will do whatever it takes to do whatever it takes. Don't worry, there must be a way out.
Listening to my mother's comforting words, I looked up, and a flame of hope rekindled in my eyes. Yes, after all, we have other relatives and friends, and as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must not give up!
So, I took out my phone and started calling all my friends and relatives one by one. However, none of us can afford to give us a large enough amount of money, so we can only partially fund some. Seeing the astronomical cost of my father's hospitalization, my hope was slim again.
Just when I was lost, I suddenly heard my brother's voice on my phone: Sister, don't worry, I also have some savings here, which should be able to fund some of you. My brother comforted me.
When I heard this, my eyes lit up, and I hurriedly asked: That's great, brother, how much savings do you have in hand?
Just as I was in the swamp of helplessness, my brother's figure suddenly appeared at the end of the corridor of the hospital. Seeing his hurried back, I felt a little comforted in my heart.
Brother, what's wrong? Is Dad's operation going well? The younger brother asked eagerly as soon as he came into sight, with a look of concern on his face.
As I spoke, I covered my face wearily and let the tears welling up in my eyes again. After more than a month of tossing and labor, I was physically and mentally exhausted, and I was on the verge of collapse.
Don't cry, brother, don't cry. Seeing this, my brother quickly sat down beside me, patted me on the back and comforted, you have done your best, you really shouldn't let you work so hard again. Don't worry, with me, I've prepared all the expenses, and we will never let Dad give up like this.
What the?! I can't believe my ears, you took out a loan to buy a new house behind my back, but haven't you just started working, where did the money come from?
My younger brother was a little restless by my staring, and explained seriously: That's the case, brother, last year I was promoted in the company because of my outstanding performance, and my salary also increased. In addition, I saved some savings in the first two years, so after the bank approved the loan, I made up my mind to buy a new house and prepare to move in with my girlfriend in the future.
But then the cost of Dad's hospitalization got higher and higher, and you couldn't scrape together enough money. At that time, I made up my mind to take out part of the money to buy a house to save my father, and the rest of the money to continue to save in the future. After all, Dad's life is the most important thing, isn't it? The younger brother said earnestly, I'm sorry brother, I should have told you the truth earlier, I made the decision without telling you.
Hearing this, my tears had stopped unconsciously. I stared at my brother's sincere eyes for a long time, and my heart was full of feelings. Originally, buying a house was already unrealistic for a person of his age, but he didn't expect him to make such a sacrifice in order to save his father.
My brother also burst into tears, hugged me tightly, and murmured: Brother, you are our greatest pride. In the past month, you have tried your best to save your father, and how much effort you have paid! We all see that if it weren't for your filial piety, Dad wouldn't know what the consequences would be. We should thank you!
No, you are all my dearest family, and I should do anything for you. I wiped away my tears heroically, and my face regained my heroic spirit, okay, since we have enough money, let's cheer up, and we must create the best recovery environment for Dad, so that he can recover as soon as possible!
The younger brother nodded vigorously, and the corners of his mouth raised a confident smile again: Don't worry, brother, with you by my side, I am not afraid of anything. Our family is of one heart and one mind, which is the most powerful force, and we will be able to turn hostility into friendship for my father!
Looking at my brother's smiling face, my heart suddenly brightened up a lot. yes, I'm finally not one anymore
