Chapter 129: Season 29
No one can easily accept the death of a loved one.
Xie Luo was accompanying her in the hospital tonight. She had no desire to sleep and kept tossing and turning.
Grandma turned over and started coughing violently again.
"Grandma? Are you okay? Are you coughing? Do you want some water to soothe your cough?"
There were two other patients in the ward, so Xie Luo didn't dare to speak too loudly, nor did he dare to turn on the light in the ward directly.
She could only carefully turn on the flashlight and pour a cup of warm water for her grandma.
"No, it's okay. You should go to bed soon too. You have to go to school tomorrow! Cough cough cough cough!!"
Grandma's cough suddenly became louder and louder, waking up the patients and their families in other beds.
Xie Luo noticed something was wrong, so he quickly put down the water and ran to her side to help her calm down.
"What's going on? Everyone needs to sleep... Blood, why are you coughing up blood? Call the nurse!"
There was a patient who was closer to them. He used the light of the flashlight to see the blood flowing from grandma's fingers and was immediately frightened.
His originally impatient words turned into fear, and someone even rang the nurse's bell next to him.
"Blood?"
Hearing this, Xie Luo looked down and saw that the blood had already dripped onto the quilt, like a bunch of bright red flowers.
Grandma couldn't stop coughing, and she didn't stop even when the nurse and doctor came. The blood on her hands kept getting more and more, staining her hospital gown and the quilt underneath her red.
Only after she fell into coma did grandma stop coughing.
The doctor and the nurse quickly transferred the patient to the emergency room. Xie Luo squatted in front of the room, staring blankly at the wall. He didn't even have the strength to cry.
This strange disease has a high recurrence rate and will cause constant coughing up of blood. The medicines needed to relieve it are also very expensive.
Because we need to use specific medicine, and not just one specific medicine, plus the cost of surgery for the disease, one relief will cost tens of thousands.
The relief can only last four to eight days at a time, which is not cost-effective at all.
The first time my grandma was rescued, she only underwent a simple operation to temporarily stop coughing up blood, but no medication was used to relieve the symptoms, so the disease relapsed very quickly.
But such a disease is equivalent to exchanging money for life, which is a burden for ordinary families.
Even if a rich person exchanges money for his life, the final outcome is still death.
After all, relief is not a panacea. It only delays the time of death and the pain of death, but it will not stop the passage of life.
The doctor came out quickly and glanced at Xie Luo: "The patient's condition has temporarily stabilized, but she still needs to be observed in the intensive care unit for a while. We will perform the next operation when her condition allows."
"For this operation, we have two options. Either we use special medicine, which will increase the success rate of the operation, or we just leave it to fate. We can only do our best to perform the operation well."
Xie Luo stood up with the help of the wall, staring stubbornly at the door of the emergency room, his voice was small but firm: "Use medicine."
The doctor was somewhat surprised by the other party's reaction, but in order to avoid future disputes, he still had to explain things clearly to Xie Luo.
"You have to think about it. If you use special medicine, the medical expenses will be very high, and it may not be successful. You have to be mentally prepared."
"If I plan to use medicine, the total cost will be one hundred thousand."
"If you want to use medicine, go and pay the fee in the next two days. Only after you pay can we use the medicine and perform the surgery."
Xie Luo nodded numbly, the huge rock in his heart was stuck again, unable to be pressed down but also unable to be freed.
She was unwilling to accept the outcome of her grandmother's death, so she would agree immediately even if it required a lot of money.
At this moment, Xie Luo admitted that he was selfish.
She didn't want to lose her grandma.
Even though I knew that my grandma would die in the end, I still hoped that she could stay with me for a while longer, even if it was just for a short while.
Because from now on, she will have no relatives.
She was completely alone.
Ji You hadn't received any letters from Xie Luo for two days. He couldn't help but feel worried. He finally found a reason to go to Xie Luo's class, but found that Xie Luo was not there at all.
She asked for leave and stayed away for several days.
Xie Luo's class teacher said that Xie Luo's grandmother was ill and she needed to take a few days off to go back and take care of her grandmother.
Ji You kept thinking about this matter while in class.
He was very worried about the situation on Xie Luo's side, but he couldn't get away.
Recently, a very annoying person has appeared around Ji You. That person is called Hu Youlin. Recently, her family has been cooperating with the Ji family, so she often comes to the villa to play.
Hu Youlin forced her parents to transfer her school, and she was also made Ji You's desk mate. She followed Ji You around like a fan girl every day.
Anyone can see that Hu Youlin likes Ji You very much.
Probably because of what happened with Ji Ling, Bai He had relaxed somewhat on the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. In addition, Bai He was quite satisfied with Hu Youlin, so he did not forcibly interfere with their relationship.
Ji You couldn't go to the hospital directly. He didn't even know which hospital Xie Luo and his grandmother were in.
However, Xie Luo was not in the hospital at this time because she needed money, and her grandmother was in the intensive care unit and she could not accompany her.
Instead of wasting time, you might as well raise money.
Grandma did have savings, but Xie Luo didn't know where the money was.
But she couldn't go in and ask, after all, grandma was still in a coma.
She searched every corner of the house but couldn't find any money, so she finally had to give up.
Xie Luo shamelessly went to borrow money from every household. Aunt Li secretly lent Xie Luo several thousand yuan and also forced her to eat something so as not to ruin her health.
But even so, the money is only more than 10,000 yuan, which is far from 100,000 yuan.
She told others that her grandmother was sick and needed money for treatment, but she did not say what illness she had.
Because for Xie Luo, there was no need to say anything.
She didn't want to admit that her grandmother would die, but she could also foresee the outcome once everyone knew it.
What other ending could there be?
Isn't it just asking her not to be stubborn and give up her grandma?
They can talk about it easily, as if they were discussing what to eat today.
But Xie Luo couldn't do that, because she couldn't do it, and she also hated those who made sarcastic remarks.
There is no true empathy in the world. Only Xie Luo himself knows what he needs and wants.
After coming out of Aunt Li's place, Xie Luo walked on the street, looking at the dense crowds, and fell into deep confusion.
Where would the rest of the money come from? And what would she do?
Xie Luo was like a shell at this moment. Although she could speak and move, her face was numb and dull, and she was no longer as energetic and lively as before.
