Before the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2017, my mother-in-law had been living in the single ward of the oncology department of the provincial hospital for a whole month!
Mother-in-law has changed so much this month!
Although she was uncomfortable when she came, she came on her own!
After this month, every day of expensive albumin is used, every meal is made in the ward, strictly according to the taste and requirements of my mother-in-law, but my mother-in-law is still emaciating at an alarming rate!
The bones of her calf are like the back of a knife wrapped in a layer of flesh, and the flesh on her hand is dried, leaving only the bones to make it creepy;What is incongruous with the dryness of her limbs is that her mother-in-law's belly is bulging high, and it is uncomfortable for her to sit up;The face is sallow.
Mr. G couldn't stand the visual torture, and every time he entered the ward, he looked away and didn't talk too much with his mother-in-law.
There is no change, only escape!I understand how he feels!
During this period, the second daughter-in-law came once, leaned on her mother-in-law's feet with a quilt at night, and started from the day of marriage, counting her decades of dissatisfaction with her mother-in-law from the beginning!
My mother-in-law had just finished the infusion, and she listened helplessly, and pleaded a few words for herself from time to time, showing that she had done her best to favor the second child for so many years!
The second daughter-in-law didn't listen to it, and continued to crusade against her mother-in-law: If you were biased towards us, would we be poor like this now?Look at your three sons, who has my family poor?
I can't listen to it a little, under the pretext that it's time to rest, ** will make rounds, hand the second daughter-in-law a floor mat, and let her lay the floor in the corridor outside the ward!
After the second daughter-in-law went out, my mother-in-law said to me weakly: What is she asking her to do?You can't do anything, you still have to take care of the food!
The boss has not been here since the day my mother-in-law was admitted to the hospital!
The eldest sister went home to prepare her mother-in-law's old clothes.
Occasionally, my mother-in-law will also ask: After living for so many days, did you spend a lot of money?
I replied: Not much!
The mother-in-law asked again: Did they (the eldest and the second) get some money?
I said, "Take it!".I took a lot of them!You don't have to worry about running out of money!
The mother-in-law will not ask any more!
In fact, my mother-in-law's medical expenses cost nearly 100,000 yuan a month, and no one except Mr. G took out a penny!
Everyone who comes to visit the hospital, no matter near or far, is a guest, I made a meal card for the hospital canteen, they took it to eat, wiped their mouths after eating, and sat outside the ward to chat!
I have a fire in my heart, but I can't help it!
Orison. Didn't Madden say that?The two hardest things in the world are: putting your own thoughts into other people's heads and putting other people's money in your own pockets. Although I didn't want to put the money of the two big brothers in my pocket, there was almost no hope of getting them to take the money out of my pocket!
Mr. G doesn't say it, and I'm not qualified to say it!
So no matter how hard it is, hold it on your own!
Fortunately, we also have a few good friends who play a big role at this time, and before we can open our mouths, they send the money!
But money is not everything!The doctor has called me to talk n times and asked me: Are you going to let the old man stay at home. Still in the hospital.
Although the doctor said it implicitly, the meaning was clear!
I said, "At such an old age, I must be at home."
The doctor said, "If you're at home, you can go back now!"This kind of disease, there is no point in living any longer, and the cost is relatively large!
I called Mr. G, relayed the doctor's words, Mr. G was silent, and finally said: It's better to be in the hospital!At least it relieves the pain!Come back, but there's no way to do it!
I understand the difficulty of making this decision!In the hospital bed was his real mother, moaning day and night was a torture for him, and if there was a way, or a place to reduce this tormenting moaning, money would not matter anymore!
Mr. G couldn't find a better way but to choose what he thought was a better place!
My mother-in-law also showed a strong desire to survive, and every time the doctor made rounds, she actively expressed her feelings to the doctor in detail, and finally never forgot to add: Doctor, I really don't have a serious illness, as long as the pain stops, I can eat!
She also comforted me from time to time: I am not seriously ill, but I have a little stomach problem.
In this case, who can bear to interrupt ** and let her go home and wait for the final result?I can only choose to stay in the hospital!
Two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, my mother-in-law suddenly said to me: How long have we been out?
I said, "It's been a month!".
The mother-in-law said: How many days are left on August 15?
I said, "Two days!".
Mother-in-law said: Can you tell the doctor, tell me to go back on August 15, I have to go to see your uncle, I am just this brother, it is not a ceremony to meet on August 10**.
The persistence of the girl in her hometown on August 15 must go back to her parents' house to string relatives, and her mother-in-law has persevered for a lifetime, and she is unwilling to leave behind for the last time!
I think that at such a time, any request made by my mother-in-law, as long as it can be met, I will try to meet it!
I went to the doctor and told my mother-in-law what she meant, and the doctor said that if you don't need an ambulance, I'm afraid there will be danger on the road!
I said try not to use an ambulance, that would be too exciting for my mother-in-law!
I originally wanted to set aside a day to prepare, but my mother-in-law was more superstitious, she felt that August 14 was not a good day, and insisted on August 13!
I only have one night to prepare!
The doctor prescribed the medicine, I packed it in different categories, marked it, sorted out the things I had to bring, and delivered them to the car in the evening!
Early the next morning, I drove the car downstairs to the ward, borrowed a wheelchair, and pushed my mother-in-law to the front of the car.
The mother-in-law was no longer able to get up and get into the car, but fortunately, the patient's family members became friends, and they helped to lift the mother-in-law into the back seat of the car.
I had already put a mattress on the back seat the night before, and tucked two quilts into the aisle of the back seat, slightly above the car seat, so that I could make sure that my mother-in-law would not fall off when she was lying down!
Then, I drove on the road!
I originally planned not to drive so fast, 4 hours to get home, but then I thought that if my mother-in-law went to the toilet on the road, I couldn't get it alone, so I decided to drive faster, and in two hours, I was downstairs!
Mr. G, his eldest sister, and uncle-in-law were already waiting at the door, and my mother-in-law quickly went upstairs and lay on her own bed!
She didn't insist on going back to the garage, there was only one bed in the garage, and the people who took care of her at night couldn't rest!
When I came back from the provincial doctor, I didn't go through the discharge procedures, and I told the doctor that I would go back to the hospital after the Mid-Autumn Festival!But I know in my heart: it will be difficult for my mother-in-law to return to the provincial hospital!
Sure enough, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mr. G had a fierce quarrel with his eldest sister on the issue of whether to return to the provincial hospital!
Mr. G insisted that he must go back to the provincial hospital and pick it up again on his last breath!
The eldest sister insisted on staying in the county hospital, so that she was close to home, and she could cook at home, so that her mother-in-law could eat more comfortably!
Mr. G said that the eldest sister was selfish, and said that if her family lived in a provincial town, she would definitely not send her mother-in-law to the county hospital!
The eldest sister was so angry that she only shed tears!
In the end, the only uncle spoke: Just send it to the county hospital!You see that your mother is so thin that only skin and bones are left, and if you shake it again, it will be scattered!Alas!At this point, you have all done your best!Don't toss anymore!
Mr. G just died down and didn't say anything more!
