C16 Preoperative Meeting

"That's why I said, the situation isn't too good. It's a lot worse than what we expected, but it's not as if there's no other way. It's still possible to improve this leg, but it's very difficult to completely recover. I believe you should know as well." Principal Song did not hide anything and explained the situation.

After Zhang Chu and his family finished listening, their moods were no longer as good as before. He had expected everything to go smoothly, but he hadn't expected that the inspection of his leg would turn out to be so bad.

The first one to adjust to the situation was Zhang Xiashan. To him, being able to improve was a good start. It was already very rare for him to get such a chance. As a person who was easy to satisfy, Zhang Xiashan quickly convinced him.

"Then Headmaster, how much do you think my leg can improve?" Zhang Chu was more concerned about how far this improvement would go.

"This treatment has to be done through surgery. The final procedure has not yet been decided, but it can be said that the leg shape has improved a lot and that the deformities cannot be seen. And from now on, the numbness and soreness in my walk will be reduced a lot. " Director Wang, who was being gestured at by Director Song, slowly said to Zhang Chu.

"However, this is also related to the postoperative recovery. If the recovery is good, then the result might be better."

Hearing this, Zhang Chu Chen could be considered to be slightly relieved. This result was still acceptable to him.

Zhang Xiashan's parents also calmed down a little when they heard this. Since there was no rule of law at all, improving was also not bad. Although it was different from their imagination, it was better than nothing. Zhang Xiashan's father calmed down a little, but Zhang Xiashan's mother wasn't able to control herself. Her eyes were red, and tears were rolling down her cheeks. Father Chang had to take her hand and comfort her in a low voice.

"Don't be too pessimistic, let's go through the procedures for the hospital today. We still have to go back and discuss the treatment later." You brought your ID cards and the like, right? " Principal Song asked Zhang Xiashan's father.

"Yes, I did."

"Then I'll trouble you to lead Mr. Zhang to the hospital first. You can stay in District A." Little Zhao, go take a look at the ward and let them clean up, "Principal Song told the two directors to run off and help out.

Zhang Chu's father followed Director Wang downstairs to complete the procedures for the hospital. Zhang Chu's mother also followed Director Zhao to check the ward and help clean it while they were at it. The only two people left in the office were Zhang Chu and Dean Song.

"Child, you have to understand that there are times when God is really unfair. It's not easy for you to work so hard. Don't let some difficulties break you up, and sometimes it's not a bad thing. You see, it's not easy for your parents, right? You're definitely going to do a big job, so just treat all of this unpleasantness as a whetstone to hone your skills. I can imagine that you must have been bullied a lot in school. I saw the bruise on your side. Sometimes, even if someone bullies you, you can't tolerate it too much. When it's time to retaliate, do the same. " Principal Song patted Zhang Chu's shoulder and said earnestly. He especially liked these simple and upscale kids from the countryside.

"I understand, Dean. "Thank you." Zhang Chu was momentarily at a loss as to how to respond to Principal Song's long line of words. He also didn't expect that Principal Song would actually know about the matter of him being beaten up. Towards Director Song helping him keep his secret, Zhang Chu's heart felt warm, and he nodded his head vigorously in agreement.

"Hehe, it's good that you know. "I've looked at your medical checklist. Your body is still alright, so you should rest and recuperate during this period. After a while, you should go to the ward. It's time for me to get off work." Principal Song tidied up the office, put on his coat, picked up his briefcase and led Zhang Chu out of the office, locking the door behind him.

"In the future, you can look for Director Wang and Director Zhao. If you have any problems, you can also look for me, but I might not always be here. The doctors and nurses here are all good, so you can feel at ease treating them." "Wait here for a while, someone will be bringing you to the ward soon." With that, Principal Song left.

After greeting the dean, Zhang Xiashan sat on a bench in the corridor and waited for his father to finish with the formalities. At this moment, Zhang Chu's heart was filled with countless thoughts. Logically speaking, this matter should be worth being happy about. However, because there was a gap between what he expected and what he expected, such a happy matter no longer seemed pure. Zhang Xiashan gently touched his knee, and lightly sighed.

A moment later, Zhang's father, who had completed the formalities, came up and led Zhang to ward A. Ward A was the quietest and best of all wards, and it was also the only one. He walked into the ward. It wasn't big, but it looked very comfortable. There was a bed, a table, a chair, a wardrobe, and a TV. The ward was also equipped with a small bathroom and balcony.

The wards in area A were also divided into different grades. Although Zhang Zhu was staying in the lowest grade ward in area A, it was already not bad. The best patients could only stay in area B, which was not something that could be entered with money.

Mama Zhang had just tidied up the ward. She said that tidying up was actually just ventilation and an entire bed. Since the ward in Area A was cleaned by someone else every day, it was also very clean.

Director Zhao and Director Wang made arrangements for the ward and left after saying their farewells to Zhang Xiashan and his family, leaving the ward only with Zhang Chu and his family. Because he didn't think that he would be hospitalized today, he didn't bring any supplies with him. So after a bit of discussion, he decided to go home and prepare some things for his parents, who would stay here by themselves tonight.

Since the sky was getting darker, and they couldn't find the car if they didn't leave now, the two of them left hurriedly after giving Zhang Xiashan some instructions, leaving Zhang Xiashan alone in the ward.

Zhang Chu took off his jacket, placed the report on the table, and turned on the TV. After a while, the nurse brought the dinner over. All the patients in District A were given three meals by the hospital. The food that was sent over was quite good. Two meat, two vegetables, one soup, and also some rice. Zhang Chu did not eat lunch, and was very hungry. He finished the meal in a few bites.

At home, the TV signal was poor and was full of snowflakes. At school, there was no television in the dormitory, so everyone used their notebooks to surf the internet, while he could only read and learn.

However, he did not have any thoughts of watching TV right now, and his mind kept thinking back to what happened that day. He spent the whole day in an atmosphere of fluctuating emotions, which made Zhang Xialong feel very tired. Therefore, it didn't take long for Zhang Xiashan to fall asleep. In the dream, Zhang Xiashan walked out of his dream-like state, and he ran around happily like a normal person.

The next morning, the first rays of sunlight woke Zhang Chu up. Today had been a completely different day for him. Where did Zhang Xiashan's parents come from in the morning to change clothes, pillow and quilt, as well as toiletries and daily necessities? Following that, the family of three was summoned by Principal Song to participate in the treatment meeting.

In a small conference room in the hospital, Director Song, Director Wang, Director Zhao, and a few other doctors were sitting there, looking at the CT and X-rays displayed on the screen as they pondered. The moment Zhang Chu and his family entered the room, they broke the deep thoughts of the doctors and turned their heads to sit down.

"You're here, come sit. "This is our treatment team. These doctors are more professional in the orthopedics department." Principal Song introduced the family after arranging for them to be seated.

"This is the chief surgeon of your operation, Dr. Geng Lin. The rest is up to you, Doctor Geng."

"Hello, I'm your main surgeon. Let's get straight to the point." A young doctor stood up and nodded to Zhang, then walked over to the screen.

"According to the examination, the patient's kneecap has developed and deformed, and there are many bone fragments near the meniscus. The first operation is to reconstruct the bone shape of the kneecap, and then to remove the broken bones behind the meniscus. And then the second part is the nail into the steel plate to correct it. " After a slight pause, Dr. Geng continued.

"So we may need to perform surgery more than two times, and now we are debating whether to correct it with a nail or with an external fixator. We also have to listen to the patient."

As soon as he finished his sentence, everyone's gazes were fixed on Zhang Xiashan. This is an option. A nail correction means that a steel nail is inserted into the inside of the leg for correction, while the other is made with a fixture outside the leg.

"Which correction is more effective?" Zhang Can - chan asked Dr. Geng Lin without even thinking.

"Nail, of course, but the recovery period is long and risky, especially if your bones are not satisfied." Geng Lin explained in an objective manner.

"Then I'll use this. The effect will be good." Zhang Xiashan was very sure. It wasn't hard for him to choose. He was willing to take the risk to pursue the better one. At this moment, Zhang Xiashan's parents didn't disturb him. They left the decision to Zhang Xiashan himself.

Doctor Geng Lin was stunned for a moment. He had thought that Zhang Xiashan would hesitate for a long time.

"Then we have no objections. We can test for drug allergy later. The operation will begin in three days."

With that, the doctors left the conference room and went back to prepare for the operation.
