Chapter 1064: You Will Do the Surgery Three Days Later

“Hello, may I know who you are?”

Jiang Tingxu came back to her senses and replied,

“Hello, my name is Jiang Tingxu.”

“So it’s Dr. Jiang. Dr. Joseph is waiting for you. Please follow me.”

“Thank you.”

…

Joseph was chatting with a little boy when they met.

“Uncle Joseph, can I survive?”

The man in the white coat squatted down and looked at the little boy at eye level. A very warm and down-to-earth smile appeared on his face. He rubbed the little boy’s cheek and said,

“Of course. Don’t you believe me?”

“But, everyone said that I won’t be able to live for long. There’s a very, very big tumor growing in my brain!”

Everyone knows that a child’s brain tumor is more difficult to treat than an adult’s!

Children are generally more susceptible and harder to endure surgery than adults. The types of brain tumors in children and adults are different.

The doctor has to take into account the age factor during diagnosis so that he can treat the child well.

For example, pituitary tumors in children are rare. If a doctor mistreats the normal growth of the pituitary gland in a child and excised it as a tumor, it will lead to a lifelong disability. They appear very similar on MRI scans.

Also, children have lighter body weights and less blood volume. Hence, they are less tolerable to great blood loss. Children have thinner skin and fewer muscle masses too. After surgery, they are more likely to develop problems such as subcutaneous fluid accumulation.

All these show that it is not easy to operate on children with brain tumors.

“Silly boy, you have to trust uncle. Don’t think about anything else. I promise you!”

The boy was convinced by Joseph and nodded.

“Alright,” he agreed.

Joseph rubbed the boy’s little face again and said,

“Go and play. If there’s anything else, come and see me.”

“Okay, goodbye.”

After the boy ran away, Joseph stood up and greeted her,

“Is it Dr. Jiang?” He asked with a smile.

“Hello, Dr. Joseph. I’m Jiang Tingxu from Yun City’s No. 1 Hospital!”

“I know, I know. You are President Mo’s wife.”

Wait.

What did he say?

Was Joseph close with the man?

It should be!

She could tell.

“Sit.”

The assistants quickly left the office. Jiang Tingxu sat on the guest sofa. She kept quiet and did not make a sound.

Joseph took out a document from the cabinet and handed it over.

“Take a look.”

Only then did Jiang Tingxu take it and open it.

The document was about a case of congenital heart disease. However, when she saw the description of the medical record and the ultrasound on it, Jiang Tingxu’s eyes widened.

“There are seven defects on the heart?”

Joseph nodded.

“Yes, this child was diagnosed with a high fever a week ago. It is very urgent. If we don’t do the surgery as soon as possible, he might not even last a month. His life could be in danger at any time.”

Indeed, there were seven defects in the heart. Anything could happen to him at any time.

“The surgery is scheduled three days later. I hope you are well prepared.”

“Me?”

Joseph looked at her and said,

“Yes, you.”

“I’ve read all of your papers in school, the results of your experiments, and the cases of the surgery in Yun City’s No. 1 hospital.”

“You have mastered the skills of heart surgery, so I would leave the patient in your good hands, Dr. Jiang!”

Wait… What?

“Dr. Joseph, you’re kidding, right?”

“No, I’m not. In three days, I’ll perform a brain tumor resection on that little boy, so please!”

Seeing the sincerity and pleading in Joseph’s eyes, Jiang Tingxu pursed her lips and agreed.
