When I got off work yesterday, it was getting late. As I cautiously tread the stairs, a poignant scene came into view: an elderly woman, with gray hair and deep wrinkles, holding her daughter and sitting on a cold chair. The woman clutched a stack of examination materials and a small amount of cash in her hand, and her eyes revealed a kind of helplessness and helplessness.
Her daughter, who looked to be about thirty years old, was pale and depressed, as if she had lost her life from her illness.
Nearly 30 years of experience as a doctor tells me that this is a mother and daughter who come to see a doctor from other places, and the family situation may not be very good. Seeing their helpless appearance, I had mixed feelings, but I could not provide them with real help. When the old woman saw me, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes: "Are you Director Li?" I took my daughter to Zhengzhou from other places and wanted you to take a look at her.
But she didn't register today, she was depressed for many years, and she had another illness a month ago, so she didn't speak, it was useless to take Western medicine, and she even had the idea of suicide. I saw online that you were an expert in this area, so bring her along. I didn't expect to get a number, so I had to wait here for one night and come back tomorrow morning. ”
With that, she handed me a hundred dollars:"Director, please be sure to accept this money, even if it is a ** fee, please show it to the child first. ”As a mother, I certainly understand what it feels like to be a mother. I politely declined the money she offered me and led them into the consultation room.
After a detailed inquiry and examination, I prescribed medication to the patient. Before she left, I also prepared a list of daily precautions and dietary taboos for her, and told her that I could write down my ** number, and next time I wouldn't have to go back and forth.

Looking at their backs as they drifted away, my eyes moistened. I know that in many of our families, the mental illness of a child is like a dark cloud, and some families may even find themselves in a difficult situation because they have to take care of their families, which leads to the inability to work normally and the financial pressure is doubled.
Therefore, I always warn myself not to over-prescribe medication so as not to bear unnecessary financial burden on the patient. As a TCM doctor, healing is important, but healing the soul cannot be ignored. Although I am not the most skilled doctor, I will do my best to help anyone who needs me.
