"Ye Qiu, are you working today?" Lu Kai's charming voice rang in my ears.
I was so excited that I didn't know what to do. He asked me if I was going to work. Could it be that he wanted to meet me? How can I give up such a good opportunity so easily? Even if I have to shamelessly ask for leave from the chief protector later, I definitely can't disappoint Lu Kai!
"I didn't go to work! Why? Do you have something to ask me out for?" I was so happy that I actually blurted out without feeling embarrassed.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Kai's voice suddenly sounded a little low.""No, Iris suddenly vomited blood. I want you to call an ambulance to pick me up and Iris to the hospital!”
When I heard Lu Kai's words, my heart suddenly sank. The joy from before immediately disappeared. In the late stages of leukemia, the patient's blood coagulation mechanism was getting worse and worse. If the patient's massive bleeding was not rescued in time, it was very likely that the patient's life would be lost. Yun Shu was already as thin as a stick. If she couldn't stop the bleeding in time, she would really die of shock. Also, bleeding from the upper digestive tract could easily cause suffocation. Lu Kai didn't have any medical knowledge, so Yun Shu's current situation was definitely very dangerous. Although I don't want to hear that Lu Kai called me because of Yun Shu, I'm a doctor after all. Yun Shu is my colleague and now he's also my patient. No matter how cold my heart is at this moment, I have to do my best to save this young life.
"Lu Kai, don't worry. I'll call the ambulance right away.”
"Ye Qiu, hurry up! I can't live without Yunshu." On the other end of the phone, Lu Kai's voice was trembling. I could imagine him hugging Yun Shu tightly with tears all over his face. He wanted to negotiate with the Grim Reaper and use his life to exchange for Yun Shu's well-being. However, there were such transactions everywhere in the world. Only life and death were not negotiable. All dissatisfaction with fate could only turn into cold tears in the cycle of life and death, flowing in one's heart.
Hearing Lu Kai's sobbing voice, tears actually flowed out of the corners of my eyes. I didn't know if I was crying for Yun Shu, for Lu Kai, or for myself.
"Lu Kai, I know Yunshu is very important to you. Tell Yunshu to hold on, I'll be there soon!”I tried my best to suppress my anxiety. After softly instructing Lu Kai, I hurriedly hung up the phone and went to the chief nurse's office to ask for leave. When the chief nurse heard that Yunshu's life was in danger, he immediately nodded and let me follow the emergency department staff. I quickly walked out of the chief nurse's office and immediately called the emergency department. I told them about Yun Shu's condition and asked them to prepare a car to make a house call.
Zhang Yu saw that I had a complicated expression and was in a hurry to call the ambulance. He thought that something had happened to my family and asked carefully,"Sister Ye Qiu, what happened? Is Auntie's high blood pressure acting up again?”
"No, my friend's wife has terminal leukemia. She's suddenly vomiting blood and is in a critical condition. I have to go to her house with the ambulance immediately.”
"If that's the case, then go quickly. I'll keep an eye on your patient for you!”When Zhang Yu heard that I had something urgent to do, he said that he would help me take care of the patient.
Originally, Tian Qian and I were in charge of a group of patients. With her around, I could rest assured. However, this little girl has never been at ease to be a good nurse since she was in the department. She was always absent-minded at work. If I didn't keep an eye on her, I was afraid that she would have caused a big trouble. Now that I have to leave for a while, I definitely wouldn't dare to leave her alone. If anything happened, I, as a teacher, would be in deep trouble.
"Zhang Yu, thank you. Keep an eye on Tian Qian. Don't let her do anything alone.”I looked at Zhang Yu gratefully and said softly. Tian Qian was taking her temperature in the ward. I didn't want this little girl to hear my conversation with Zhang Yu. Girls all care about their reputation. If she knew that I didn't trust her to do things, she would definitely be even less worried about being a nurse. Our master-disciple relationship would also be affected.
Zhang Yu nodded and smiled.”
"Alright, I'll be leaving then!" I smiled back at Zhang Yu and rushed to the elevator. The Orthopedics Department is on the tenth floor of the surgical building, and the Emergency Department is an independent building on the east side of the hospital. It would take me at least five to six minutes to get there. The annoying thing was that the elevator kept stopping on the twelfth floor. I was so anxious that I stomped my feet. I really wanted to run downstairs in one breath. Just as I was about to turn around and take the stairs, the elevator door finally opened. The number of patients and family members inside was already full. I took the risk that the elevator was very likely to be overweight and squeezed into the crowd. Fortunately, I was now less than 100 pounds, so the elevator did not light up because of my participation. The elevator was indeed fast. In less than two minutes, I reached the first floor. I walked out of the elevator and rushed to the Emergency Department not far away.
At the entrance of the Emergency Department, a slightly plump middle-aged doctor and a thin nurse were already ready to go. The two of them looked at me and said in unison,"Did you make the call?"
"Yes, everyone, get in the car quickly. The patient's condition is urgent, so we have to hurry!”I looked at them seriously. After I finished speaking, I took the lead and sat in the ambulance.
The doctor and nurse exchanged a glance before swiftly sitting down beside me. The driver stepped on the accelerator and drove the ambulance out of the hospital at lightning speed.
"You're Ye Qiu from the Orthopedics Department, right? Who is the patient to you? Where is the exact location?" The ambulance driver glanced at me and asked seriously.
I didn't expect the ambulance driver to know my name, and I couldn't help but be secretly happy. The nursing skills competition in May had indeed made me famous. It seemed that I would have to participate in more such activities in the future. Although there was no monetary subsidy, I had gained countless fans.
"I'm Ye Qiu. The patient is my friend's wife. They live in the Kang Ning District near City No.1 Middle School.”
"Oh, I know!" After the ambulance driver confirmed the location, he sped up.
I looked out the window anxiously, wishing that the car could fly.
The nurse saw that I was very nervous and asked curiously,"Sister Ye Qiu, looking at how nervous you are, is the patient on good terms with you?”
"Yes, she's not only my friend's wife, she's also my good colleague!"”
"Colleagues?" The doctor and nurse looked at me in surprise and said in unison.
I whispered," She's a radiologist in our hospital. Maybe it was because of the radiation, but she unfortunately got leukemia. My friend and she are very loving. She can't die!"”
"She's too pitiful. She's so young!”the young nurse said regretfully.
The doctor only shook his head." Fate is so unfair. She is an angel who saves lives and heals the wounded. God let her suffer from such a terrible disease at such a young age."”
The ambulance driver sighed as well.”
Just as the four of us were lamenting the injustice of fate and feeling sad because of Yun Shu, Lu Kai called again. He said anxiously,"Ye Qiu, have you arrived? Yun Shu's face was purple. He was probably dying.”
"We'll be there soon. Hurry up and see if Yunshu choked on the blood he spat out!”When I heard Lu Kai's sad and anxious voice, my heart suddenly clenched together. From Lu Kai's words, I deduced that Yun Shu was most likely suffocating. If he wasn't handled properly, the consequences would be very serious.
"Okay, let me see. Don't hang up!”Lu Kai quickly checked Yun Shu's mouth according to my instructions. Sure enough, with the help of the flashlight, he found a lump of sticky blood near Yun Shu's throat.
"Ye Qiu, there's really something in Yun Shu's mouth!”Lu Kai shouted nervously over the phone.
"Quickly take it out with your hands and give Yunshu some ice water. This way, the blood vessels in the stomach will contract and the bleeding will be reduced!”As I loudly instructed Lu Kai to give first aid, I urged the ambulance driver to hurry up.
The ambulance driver nodded, turned on the warning lights, honked, and drove the car down the street. Although there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the street, they all consciously made way for the ambulance. In less than three minutes, we arrived at the high-rise building where Lu Kai lived.
"His house is on the 13th floor. Everyone, hurry up!”As soon as the ambulance stopped, I shouted and jumped out of the car.
The doctor and nurse took the oxygen tube and first aid kit and quickly followed behind me. Damn it, the elevator is on the 33rd floor. It only came down after waiting for about two minutes. The three of us quickly stepped into the elevator and headed straight for Lu Kai's house.
I knocked on the door of Lu Kai's house. When Lu Kai's mother saw me coming in, she held my hand with tears on her face and said,""Ye Qiu, you're finally here."
"Auntie, where is Yunshu?" I said anxiously.
"In the bedroom. Go and take a look!"
The paramedics and I rushed into the bedroom and saw Yun Shu lying in Lu Kai's arms with a pale face and weak breathing. The grayish-white wooden floor of the bedroom was stained with blood, and Lu Kai's white shirt was also stained with red blood.
When Lu Kai saw me enter, he said with a dull expression,""You're finally here. I'm afraid Yunshu won't be able to make it.”
I saw that Yun Shu's eyes were tightly shut. She couldn't be bothered to talk to Lu Kai. She walked straight to Lu Kai's side with the paramedics and quickly carried Yun Shu from his arms, letting her lie flat on the big bed with pink sheets.
When I felt that Yunshu was still breathing, I hurriedly opened the first aid kit. The nurse had already given Yunshu a venous puncture, and I took out a nasal tube to give Yunshu oxygen.
"Ye Qiu, check if there's anything left in your mouth!”the doctor said solemnly.
I turned on the flashlight and moved Yun Shu's lips away. Seeing that there was no blood clot in his mouth, I knew that Lu Kai had already treated it according to my instructions.
"There's nothing. Do we need to insert a three-cavity gastric tube to stop the bleeding now?”
"Yes, step back. I'll do it!" After the doctor said that, he took out a disinfected three-cavity gastric tube from the first aid kit, put on rubber gloves, and began to operate.
Although I learned these operations in school, I have been staying in the Orthopedics Department since I came to the city hospital. I rarely use these operations, and my skills are a little rusty. Now that the doctors and nurses in the Emergency Department are here, I naturally can be of use.
The doctor skillfully inserted the gastric tube, then asked the nurse to inject iced salt water and adrenaline into the tube. After a while, Yun Shu's mouth stopped bleeding.
"Carry the patient to the ambulance!" the doctor said solemnly.
I hurriedly brought a stretcher. Seeing that Yun Shu still had hope of survival, Lu Kai's eyes flashed with a trace of light as he gently carried Yun Shu onto the stretcher. The doctor bent down and Lu Kai lifted the stretcher. The nurse and I each carried a small oxygen tank and an infusion bottle. We quickly walked out of the house and ran straight to the elevator. As Lu Kai's mother locked the door behind her, she wiped her tears and said,""Ye Qiu, you have to think of a way to wake Yun Shu up.”
"Auntie, don't worry, I will!”After saying that, the elevator door closed tightly and carried us downstairs.
Although I told Lu Kai and his mother not to worry, when I lowered my head and saw Yun Shu's pale face again, I felt as if the God of Death was right beside her. It was using extremely cruel methods to compete with us for Yun Shu's body and soul.
