Chapter 1069: Surgery
However, they had agreed to go on a business trip for one day. In the end, he did not return until Jiang Tingxu had entered Joseph’s laboratory to prepare for the surgery. He had called ahead to inform them. Otherwise, they would have suspected that he had gone missing again.
In the laboratory, the entire medical team that partic.i.p.ated in the surgery was present. They had just finished their meeting in the afternoon and had dinner in the laboratory in the evening. After that, they had a good night’s rest. The next morning, everyone entered the operating theater!
However, it seemed that no one went to bed early. After dinner, everyone chatted and played with each other. Jiang Tingxu went to the ward to play with the little boy and his friends.
These little angels with their broken wings were so easy to love.
Whenever Jiang Tingxu came, she would bring a lot of little toys and snacks to give to everyone.
Therefore, she was a very familiar face to the little boy and his friends.
“Sister, sister, over here.”
“Coming!”
Once Jiang Tingxu came over, the little boy made way for her. He even patted the stool with his little hand.
“Sister, you sit here. Let’s sit together.”
Jiang Tingxu naturally could not refuse.
“Sure.”
This little boy also had a rare intracranial tumor. Moreover, it was a huge one. It had been three years since he was diagnosed. He was not even six years old at present.
Therefore, he was even younger, barely two years old when he received his diagnosis.
In the past three years, the intracranial tumor grew bigger and bigger. Until now, the little boy could not even stand up straight. He would vomit from time to time.
The little boy was not abandoned by his parents. It was just that he had been sick since he was young. The family’s money was used to slow down the progression of the illness, so their living conditions were not very good.
It would be impossible for him to raise that huge amount of money for the surgery, even if he had gone without eating or drinking for two lifetimes.
Surgery was also imminent. Because of the 60 million donation a few days ago, the surgery for the little boy had been rescheduled.
Regarding this, Jiang Tingxu was content. At the very least, she had donated all her savings. It wasn’t much, but it could still help a few children expedite their surgery date, right?
“Sister, are you also Chinese?”
“Yes, are you also Chinese?”
“No, I also want to be Chinese like my mom and dad, but I was born here!”
So, he was an M citizen.
She wasn’t sure if this was a lucky thing. It was precisely because the child was an M citizen that the medical expenses could be covered by insurance. Otherwise, just with the salary of his parents, they would not even be able to alleviate his illness.
“It doesn’t matter, as long as we have our country in our hearts!”
The little boy nodded happily. His movements were very small, and he was as cute as a little squirrel.
The two chatted for quite a while, and the conversation only ended when the nurse came over and asked the little boy to go back and rest.
Jiang Tingxu watched the little boy leave. Only when he was out of sight, then did she let out a sigh.
She thought to herself, “After I return to China, I’ll bring my son for a thorough body check-up first. It’s better to be safe than sorry.”
Early next morning, the medical staff of the surgical team ate a special breakfast in the laboratory. After which, they held an emergency meeting to discuss the things that they should take note of when they entered the operating theater.
Everyone entered the operating theater one by one once the discussion was concluded.
There were two surgeries today. One was a rare congenital heart surgery performed by Jiang Tingxu, and the other was a surgery performed by Doctor Joseph to remove the intracranial tumor.
The operating time of the two teams was only twenty minutes apart, allowing them to cross paths after they entered the operating theater.
