Every time I struggle to get up, it is another embrace of life. Today we are going to tell the story of a long-lived liver tumor patient's successful experience of fighting cancer, he broke through the original 1-year survival period, his life has been extended for 4 years, and the future is bright, which is the life leap realized by the inner persistence and modern technology!
4 years ago, Uncle Liu was like every day, after doing physical work, he found pain in his upper right abdomen at night, and the pain was slightly relieved after rubbing. After that, I had many times of pain, thinking it was a strain. The old man has been tough all his life and doesn't care. Later, intermittent fatigue and bloating appeared, which also affected daily work. The family then went to a tertiary hospital in Changchun City to seek medical treatment through acquaintances. After the examination, he was diagnosed with "liver cancer", and everyone knew what these two words meant, and the family fell silent in an instant. What's even more devastating is that the professor in the hospital clearly pointed out that the tumor is too large to operate, and it is recommended to give up or be conservative**.
Uncle Liu was open-minded, and in those days, he couldn't see Uncle Liu showing sadness, just silently counting the remaining days. The family looked at Uncle Liu's increasingly thin body, tried to continue to look for all kinds of **, searched for hospitals around the country, tossed and turned, and the local Red Cross gave Uncle Liu's family such a message: Guowen Hospital has treated many critically ill cancer patients over the years, and there are professors from Peking University. Knowing that there was still hope for his illness, Uncle Liu's frozen heart also began to sprout the idea of living.
After arriving at Jilin Guowen Hospital, the cancer center of the hospital immediately arranged an MDT consultation, and after the evaluation of the condition of each department: the liver giant tumor, 17 cm, too large in size, and the surgical benefit is too low, in this case, according to the CNLC primary liver cancer diagnosis and treatment guidelines, intervention** is the first choice. Because Uncle Liu belongs to "primary liver cancer stage IIIA", he is in the late stage of liver cancer. In order to reduce the risk of interventional embolization and fully ensure safety, Director Hou Chuanwei led the interventional team to carefully formulate a first-class plan and decided to perform interventional embolization of tumors in the liver in stages and then cooperate with local perfusion chemotherapy.
In September 2019, Uncle Liu began a long journey of intervention. After three interventional embolizations**, the tumor shrank significantly, and Uncle Liu's physical condition improved in all aspects. The four-year fight against cancer** is particularly long and destroys people's will. Even a person as strong as Uncle Liu once had thoughts of wanting to give up, but Director Hou and the attending doctor took the trouble to actively persuade him, talk to him, and open his heart knot several times, so that he could move forward on the road of fighting cancer.
In the past four years, Director Hou Chuanwei has performed a total of 13 interventional embolization surgeries for Uncle Liu, and it is gratifying that the tumor is shrinking day by day, and the last few re-examinations have shown that the tumor has all lost its activity, achieving the best expected results. Now that Uncle Liu is about to be discharged from the hospital, he has always been very strong in front of his family, and he said frankly: "I have been scared in the past four years, and now I feel like I have a dream, Thank you Director Hou for not giving up on me, patiently persuading me, and giving me a new life, everyone says that I am lucky, in fact, I know that this is the good technology of the Chinese Academy of Culture, and the good policy of the Red Cross." "The strength of life is not in standing tall, but in being able to get up after every fall. Cancer is like a catastrophe in a long life, if you don't do your best, how can you know who wins and who loses.
