“Hey, didn’t Dr . Wang already say that you are not sick?” the young asked . “It’s just because you’re not careful and don’t pay attention to your skin . You will be fine if you pay more attention to it in the future . ”
“Well, I feel relieved after coming to get it checked,” the woman said . The stone hanging in her heart could finally land .
“Come on, get in the car . ”
The mother and son happily left .
“Cheerful are the normal citizens like us today!” Jia Zizai was humming a little song at home .
“Look at you . You are so happy . ”
“Of course I am happy . This matter is worth celebrating!”
“It is indeed worth celebrating . ”
“Hey, you can’t tell others the pithy formula that I have taught you!”
“I got it . You have already repeated it four times . Besides, who can I pass it on to? I am with you every day . ”
Jia Zizai happily smoked a cigarette .
“Sir’s accomplishments are so high that he already has the three of us as disciples,” Hu Mei said . “What about his medical skills? As far as I know, Senior Pan only studies Western medicine . ” In her opinion, as their master, Wang Yao was highly accomplished, unpredictable, and mysterious . He also said that he was a doctor and medical skills were his core practice . The martial arts cultivation was secondary . He had profound medical skills . Yet, he only a Western medicine doctor as a disciple . It was quite puzzling .
“I think that perhaps Sir has not found the right person yet,” Jia Zizai said .
In the clinic…
“You are?” Wang Yao looked at the old man sitting in front of him .
The old man was in his 60s . He had a slight hunchback but a good spirit and complexion . He did not speak for a long time after he came inside . He just sat there and stared at Wang Yao .
“Sir, what ails you?”
“Ah, I am not sick,” the old man said . “Who are you? Why am I here?”
Wang Yao rubbed his forehead .
“Sir, this is my place . It is a clinic . I am a doctor, and I treat patients . ”
“A doctor? Doctor Huang, do you have magic fingers?” the old man seriously asked .
Wang Yao had encountered a wonderfully weird old man .
The old man in front of him was suffering from amnesia, and he was very sick . Wang Yao was curious as to how the old man was able to find his clinic .
“What is your name, Sir?”
“About that…” The old man scratched his head . “I remember my name is Li Xiuyuan . ”
“Do you remember where you live?”
“Well, I can’t quite remember . ” The old man scratched his head .
“Why are you here?”
“Hmm, let me think about it,” the old man said .
Wang Yao thought, It would be strange if you could remember it!
“Well, I can’t remember . ”
Sure enough .
He had forgotten his name, home address, and, of course, he would naturally forget about his family .
Wang Yao realized that he had encountered a big problem . This old man could not keep staying in his clinic like this, could he?
“Could you take a look and see if you have any contact information in your pockets?”
“That’s right, let me take a look . ”
The old man began to rummage his pockets . He managed to find a piece of paper with his name on it . The old man’s surname was Li, but it was not Li Xiuyuan . It was Li Aiguo, a very distinctive name of the times . There was also a contact number on the paper . Wang Yao hurriedly used the landline to call it . An anxious sounding woman answered .
“Yes, his name is Li Aiguo . He is at my place,” Wang Yao said .
“You don’t have to worry . Yes, it’s the clinic . OK, I’ll wait for you . ”
“Sir, please wait here . Don’t go anywhere . Your daughter will come to pick you up in a moment . ”
“Ah, alright,” the old man said .
“How did you find me?” Wang Yao asked . The cline was in a remote location . Judging from the old man’s clothes, he was not likely an old man from a nearby village . He was probably from the county town, which was dozens of miles away . Putting aside the fact that the old man’s brain was not in a good state, even if he were an ordinary old man who had never come there before, he would have quite some trouble finding the place .
“Well, how did I get here? Let me think . ” The old man began to rummage through his pockets . He finally found another piece of paper . On it was written the name and location of Wang Yao’s clinic . It was written there for a reason .
“Did you come by taxi?”
“Yes, I have some impressions of that . It was probably by taxi . ”
“Sir, what is your name again?”
“Li Aiguo . This child, didn’t I just say that?” the old man replied .
“Well, you did . ” Wang Yao looked at his watch and took note of the time .
“May I pour you a cup of tea, Sir?”
“Sure, thank you . ”
“Sir, do you normally like to drink tea?”
The old man thought about it and said, “Yes, I like the taste . ”
After listening, Wang Yao wrote down something in the book .
“How many children do you have?”
“One son and two daughters . The son is not very obedient . Thank God for the two daughters,” the old man said after thinking .
“Do you live with your daughter?”
“Well, yes . ” The old man nodded .
Wang Yao continued to jot down notes in his notebook . It seemed that the old man had not forgotten everything, but he had selectively lost his memory, which was interesting .
Wang Yao talked with the old man and looked at the time . About 30 minutes had passed .
“Sir, what is your name again?”
“Li Xiuyuan . Didn’t you just ask that?”
Huh?
Wang Yao wrote down the time .
“How many children do you have?”
“Two sons and a daughter . The sons are not obedient, but the daughter is very good . ”
Something is wrong!
Wang Yao crossed out what he had just jotted down .
It was not selective amnesia .
“Do you live at your daughter’s house?”
“No, at my son’s house . ”
This was a mess . It was all a mess .
“Sir, let me check your pulse,” Wang Yao said .
“Sure, check my pulse,” the old man happily said .
Wang Yao reached out and checked the old man’s pulse .
The problem is quite serious .
The man’s problem was in his head . His brain had begun to degenerate and atrophy . That was also the direct cause of his memory decline .
Creak! The outside door opened . A woman rushed inside .
“Dad, why are you here?” the woman asked . “You have made me so worried . ”
“Dr . Wang, I am so sorry!”
“It is alright . He is seriously ill,” Wang Yao said .
“Ah, it is indeed serious . I have been to many places . I heard that you have treatment methods for all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases, so I thought of coming here . I asked for a detailed address and wrote it down . However, I did not expect my father would come here by himself . It scared me . ”
“Dr . Wang, since we are all here, could you take a look at my father?”
“Before you arrived, I already took a look at him and realized that the old man’s memory loss is due to the deterioration of brain function,” Wang Yao said .
“Well, that’s what the other hospitals said when we went there for examination,” the woman said . “Do you think it can be treated? Even if it can be delayed for a while, it would be good . ”
The other doctors had said it was just amnesia now, but the next step might affect other body functions, such as actions, speaking, and defecation . If the disease further developed, one of the most common situations would be incontinence .
“Well, I can try, but the treatment will be very expensive,” Wang Yao said .
This old man’s situation was the degradation of his body function, focused on the brain . He could use drugs to prevent the degradation of those functions and even reverse it to a certain extent .
“Expensive? How expensive?” the woman asked .
“A dose of medicine will be tens of thousands . ”
“Ah?” The woman was stunned . “So expensive!”
“Yes . ”
“We will go back and think about it . ”
“OK, have a safe journey back . ”
“Oh, noted . ”
“Who are you?” The old man suddenly turned his head and looked at his daughter .
“Dad, I am your daughter . ”
“Oh, where is this?”
“The clinic . ”
“Well, I do have a little impression of it . ”
“Wait, Miss, your father likes drinking very much, right?” Wang Yao suddenly thought of something .
“Yes, he used to drink like life depended on it . After he got this disease, he quit . ”
“Alright, I see . ”
The woman left the hospital with her father .
“Dad, don’t come out on your own in the future . I was worried sick . ”
