On a Friday evening in late autumn, Liu Xin was about to get off work when her mobile phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Aunt Liu Yan's call, she smiled and picked it up: "Auntie, why did you remember to call me?" "
On the other end of the phone, Liu Yan's voice trembled a little: "Xinxin, your cousin... She was diagnosed with a thyroid nodule. "
Liu Xin was stunned, and the appearance of her cousin Wang Lin at the family gathering last month came to mind. "How so? She was fine the last time we met. "
"Yes," Liu Yan sighed, "but now she refuses to accept formal treatment, saying that she wants to drink dandelion soaked water." Why is this kid so stubborn? "
Hanging up the phone, Liu Xin was preoccupied. She decided to visit her cousin the next day to find out what was going on.
On Saturday morning, Liu Xin came to her cousin's house. Pushing open the door, a faint smell of herbs came to my face. She followed the smell into the kitchen and saw Wang Lin cooking a large pot of green plants.
"Cousin, is this a dandelion?" Liu Xin approached the side of the pot curiously.
Wang Lin turned around with a faint smile on her face: "Yes, it is said on the Internet that this is good for thyroid nodules." Come, let's sit down and talk. "
The sisters sat on the sofa in the living room. Wang Lin held a cup of steaming dandelion water and said slowly: "Actually, I am very afraid of the side effects of surgery and medication. You know, I'm just getting better at work, and I don't want to be delayed because of treatment. And—" she paused, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes, "I still want to have a baby, and I'm worried that the treatment will affect fertility." "
Liu Xin listened, feeling distressed and worried. She gently held her cousin's hand: "Cousin, I understand your concerns. But does drinking dandelion water alone really work? "
"I know you're all worried about me," Wang Lin smiled bitterly, "but I want to try this gentle method first." Give me some time, okay? "
Looking at her cousin's determined eyes, Liu Xin didn't say anything more. She silently accompanied Wang Lin until the evening before saying goodbye.
When I got home, not long after Liu Xin sat down, my uncle Wang Xu's phone called.
"Xinxin," Wang Xu's voice was full of anxiety, "did you see your cousin today?" Does she still refuse to listen to our counsel? "
Liu Xin sighed: "Yes, uncle." My cousin seems to be confident in this dandelion cure. "
"Hey," Wang Xu said helplessly, "Your mother and I are about to turn white." Xinxin, you have a good relationship with your cousin, can you persuade her more? "
"I'll do my best, uncle." Liu Xin promised, "I will visit her often and pay close attention to her situation." "
After hanging up the phone, Liu Xin fell into deep thought. How do you find a balance between respecting your cousin's choices and your family's concerns? The question made her toss and turn and it was hard to sleep.
Spring went to autumn, and three months passed in the blink of an eye. Liu Xin insisted on visiting her cousin Wang Lin every week to keep a close eye on her condition. On this day, Liu Xin came to her cousin's house again.
"Cousin, I'm here!" Liu Xin pushed open the door, and the familiar aroma of herbs came to his face.
Wang Lin poked her head out of the kitchen with a faint smile on her face: "Xinxin, come in." I just cooked today's dandelion water. "
Liu Xin walked into the kitchen, looked at the thermos cup on the dining table, and couldn't help asking, "Cousin, what do you think of the effect after so long?" "
Wang Lin sighed softly: "To be honest, I'm not sure. The lump on my neck doesn't seem to have changed much, but I feel much better in my mental state. "
Liu Xin looked at her cousin carefully, and had to admit that Wang Lin's complexion was indeed much better than before. "Maybe it's because your routine is more regular?"
"Maybe," Wang Lin smiled, "Not only have I quit spicy food now, but I don't even drink coffee." "
At this moment, Wang Lin's mobile phone rang. She picked up the phone, her face becoming serious. After hanging up, she turned to Liu Xin and said, "The hospital notified me to go for a follow-up." Shin Shin, can you come with me? "
"Of course!" Liu Xin agreed without hesitation.
The next day, the sisters came to the hospital. The waiting time for the results of the examination seems to be stretched indefinitely. Finally, the doctor called Wang Lin's name.
"Ms. Wang Lin," the doctor pushed his glasses and said in a serious tone, "Judging from the examination results, there is no obvious change in your thyroid nodules. I suggest you reconsider surgery or medication. Relying solely on folk remedies is too risky. "
Wang Lin's face turned pale instantly, and Liu Xin hurriedly held her hand.
Walking out of the consultation room, Wang Lin suddenly stopped: "Xinxin, do you think I'm too stubborn?" "
Liu Xin took a deep breath: "Cousin, I understand your concerns. But the doctor's advice is also important. Maybe we can find a compromise? "
Wang Lin shook his head: "No, I want to give Dandelion Water some more time." "
"But cousin!" Liu Xin couldn't help but raise her voice, "You can't always run away!" "
"I didn't run away!" Wang Lin was also excited, "You don't understand, I just need time!" "
The two argued in the corridor of the hospital, attracting the attention of many people.
After returning home, Wang Lin's mood was still very low. Liu Xin saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. She decided to call her aunt Liu Yan to discuss countermeasures.
However, this decision caused an even bigger storm. The next day, Liu Yan and Wang Xu hurried over, trying to convince Wang Lin to receive formal treatment.
"Linlin, how can you be so ignorant?" Liu Yan said anxiously, "Don't you listen to your mother's words?" "
Wang Xu also said solemnly: "Daughter, you are responsible for your own health. You can't always be willful! "
Wang Lin felt surrounded by the whole family, and her emotions collapsed: "Why can't you respect my choice?" I'm not a kid again! "
Seeing the escalation of family conflicts, Liu Xin was in a dilemma. She understands her family's concerns, but she can't bear to see her cousin under pressure.
In the aftermath of this family storm, Liu Xin began to search the Internet for relevant information, hoping to find a balance. The hard work paid off, and she met a Chinese medicine practitioner by chance.
"Dandelion does have some pharmacological effects," the TCM practitioner explains, "but relying solely on it to treat thyroid nodules has limited efficacy." I recommend a combination of Chinese and Western medicine treatments, which can both relieve symptoms and reduce side effects. "
Liu Xinru got the treasure and immediately told Wang Lin this information. "Cousin, you see, this might be a good idea. Can we try a combination treatment? "
Wang Lin was thoughtful after hearing this, but still seemed hesitant. "Let me think again," she whispered.
At this time, Wang Lin's company organized a physical examination for all employees. When colleagues learned she had a thyroid nodule, reactions varied. Some people expressed concern, while others talked behind their backs.
Under pressure, Wang Lin finally opened up to Liu Xin.
"Xinxin, in fact, I have always been scared," Wang Lin said in a choked voice, "I am worried that the nodules are malignant, but I dare not face them." Drinking dandelion water made me feel like I was doing something and gave me a sense of security. "
Liu Xin hugged her cousin tightly, and a strong desire to protect her heart swelled up. "Cousin, I see. Let's face it together, shall we? No matter what the outcome, I will be there for you. "
Seeing her cousin nodding, Liu Xin made up her mind to help her face the problem head-on and seek the most suitable professional advice. She knew it would be a difficult but necessary process.
Spring is blooming, and it's another year of greenery. Two weeks have passed since Wang Lin confessed her inner fear, and with Liu Xin's company, she finally mustered up the courage to step into the hospital again.
"Ms. Wang Lin, please come in." The doctor said softly, motioning for the sisters to sit down.
Wang Lin nervously held Liu Xin's hand and took a deep breath: "Doctor, how are the test results?" "
The doctor carefully reviewed the report and said slowly: "There is no obvious change in the size of the nodules, but there are no signs of deterioration. After a pause, he continued, "While dandelion water may have some help, I would recommend a more aggressive treatment plan. "
Liu Xin felt the cold sweat on her cousin's palm and gently patted her shoulder to show encouragement.
Wang Lin bit her lip and finally made up her mind: "Doctor, I want to hear your advice." I'm ready for formal treatment. "
The doctor nodded with satisfaction: "I'm glad you made this decision." Considering your situation, I recommend minimally invasive surgery. This method removes the nodule while maximizing thyroid function. "
Walking out of the consultation room, Wang Lin breathed a long sigh of relief, as if she had unloaded her long-term burden. Liu Xin hugged her tightly: "Cousin, you are amazing!" I'm so proud of you. "
On the way home, Wang Lin called her parents. On the other end of the phone, Liu Yan and Wang Xu were surprised and delighted, and said that they would come to the hospital to accompany her.
"Mom, Dad," Wang Lin said softly, "I'm sorry to worry you." Before... Actually, I was too scared. "
Wang Xu said gently: "Silly boy, we will always be on your side. "
The surgery was scheduled for a week later. In the past few days, Wang Lin has repeatedly recalled the experience of the past few months. On the eve of the operation, she said to Liu Xin, who was guarding the ward: "Xinxin, during this time, I have learned that although traditional therapy has its value, for serious health problems, we should still believe in modern medicine." "
Liu Xin held her cousin's hand: "Cousin, the important thing is that you have made the right choice now. We will always have your back. "
The surgery was very successful. During her recovery from surgery, Wang Lin's bedside was filled with flowers and greeting cards. Liu Xin visits every day, sometimes bringing new information about thyroid health.
"Cousin, you know what?" One day Liu Xin said excitedly, "I found some studies that say that a moderate amount of dandelion tea is indeed good for thyroid health. Maybe we can make it part of our daily health care? "
Wang Lin smiled and nodded: "Okay, but this time we have to be scientific." Dandelion tea is combined with regular treatment, and the two-pronged approach is two-pronged. "
During their recovery, the sisters often discussed the topic of thyroid health. Wang Lin began to pay attention to diet and lifestyle. This experience not only improved her physical condition, but also made her relationship with Liu Xin more intimate.
Half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and it is time for a re-examination. This time, the whole family came to the hospital and nervously awaited the results.
"Congratulations, Ms. Wang Lin," the doctor said with a smile on his face, "your thyroid function is completely normal and there are no signs of recurrence." "
The room burst into cheers. Liu Yan cried with joy, and Wang Xu kept patting her daughter's shoulder. Liu Xin jumped up excitedly and gave her cousin a big hug.
That night, the whole family gathered to celebrate. At the dinner table, Wang Lin raised her wine glass and said affectionately, "Thank you to each and every one of you." This experience taught me to face up to my health problems and made me more aware of how precious my family's love is. "
She looked at Liu Xin in particular: "Xinxin, thanks to you being by my side all the time." You taught me how to balance traditional wisdom and modern medicine. "
With tears in her eyes, Liu Xin raised her glass in response: "Cousin, we are a family and will always support each other." "
In the midst of the staggering, Wang Lin sighed with emotion: "Do you know? Now I feel that health and the love of my family are the most precious treasures in the world. "
Everyone raised their glasses to Wang Lin's recovery, the love of her family, and the beauty of life. This warm evening marks the end of a difficult journey and the beginning of a new life.
