Chapter 277 Surgery
Cai Ying's test results were good; she was eligible for surgery.
The surgery was performed by Director Su, with an anesthesiologist from the Beijing Military Hospital assisting Ye Nuan. Two chief physicians from Beijing also entered the operating room together.
Cai Ying's surgery still attracted the attention of the entire medical community.
After all, this was the first time, and even though Director Su was the surgeon, everyone was on tenterhooks.
However, Cai Ying's condition is deteriorating, and without surgery, he won't make it to the end of the year.
Therefore, we have no choice but to give it a try for now.
Grandpa Cai didn't come to Beijing, but he gave his son and daughter-in-law a strict order: even if it meant losing their jobs, they had to go with him!
Cai's parents arrived last night, and the couple was delayed again today. By the time they got to the hospital, Cai Ying had already been in the operating room for half an hour.
The parents went to the ward first, and were then told by the nurse that they had been taken into the operating room.
Gao Yun and her two children were waiting outside the operating room.
Gao Yun also signed the surgical consent form.
When the couple arrived, they were somewhat embarrassed to see the mother and her two children waiting there.
After all, it's really unacceptable that the two of them were late for such an important event.
Cai's mother was more likely to lower her stance.
What time did you go in?
Gao Yun glanced at his watch: "Eight o'clock sharp. Around seven in the morning, the hospital's experts and several doctors arrived, and Director Su stayed by Cai Ying's side the whole time, with Dr. Ye also by her side closely. They said that if all goes well, she should be able to come out after lunch."
Upon hearing this, Cai's mother was initially somewhat embarrassed, but later relaxed.
It will be a long time.
"Old Cai, Gao Yun said the surgery can only be completed after lunch."
"Okay, let's wait here for a bit."
The two men were worldly-wise and knew that many unexpected situations could occur during surgery, so they weren't sure if they would need their help.
Around ten o'clock, a nurse rushed out, running all the way, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
Less than five minutes later, the nurse rushed back with a blood bag in her hand.
He did not exchange a single word with the family members throughout the entire process.
The only person having surgery inside today is Cai Ying. Seeing her reaction, Gao Yun is still very scared.
About twenty minutes later, a nurse came out, mainly to comfort the family members.
"You can take a break now and then, there's no need to be so tense. The surgery is going very smoothly. The problem was that we didn't have enough blood bags, so the nurse had to go get some. It's not a big deal."
Gao Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Was the bullet removed?"
The nurse shook her head: "I wasn't inside, so I don't know."
The nurse was just working inside, responsible for disinfection; she wasn't actually in the operating room.
After being comforted by the nurse, Gao Yun and Cai's parents calmed down considerably.
It wasn't until eleven o'clock that Cai's mother could no longer sit still.
"How about we go to the ward and wait for a while?"
Mr. Cai felt there was no point in waiting there any longer, so he simply nodded and then asked Gao Yun, "Should we take the two children back to rest for a while?"
"do not want!"
Before Gao Yun could speak, the two children said at the same time, "We'll stay here and wait for Dad."
Mr. Cai did not insist, and went to the ward with Mrs. Cai to wait.
Given Tsai Ing-wen's condition, she would definitely need a private hospital room.
The single room has two beds, one for the patient and the other for the caregiver.
In cases like Cai Ying's, normally someone would need to stay by her side 24 hours a day, and after the surgery, someone would need to be with her for 48 hours straight.
After lying down for a while, Mr. and Mrs. Cai decided to go out for lunch, since they wouldn't be coming out until after lunch anyway.
"Let's eat first, and then we'll buy some steamed buns for Gao Yun and the two children to take back later."
"understood."
Cai Jie's future will definitely still be affected by his wife. Although they are divorced, he can forget about getting a promotion for the next three to five years.
Therefore, Cai's father still places all his hopes on Cai Ying.
As long as Cai Ying recovers, it won't be long before he is promoted to regimental commander.
As long as Tsai Ying is successful, the Tsai family will still be the same Tsai family, and will always bear the surname Tsai.
The couple carried two lunchboxes and brought meat buns for the mother and her two children, which was quite nice.
This was the first time Gao Yun had ever eaten meat buns from her in-laws since she married into the Cai family, and the same was true for her two children.
Gao Yun thanked him and then went back to the ward to pour a tub of hot water.
It was past 1 p.m., and there was still no movement from inside the operating room, which made the people outside the door increasingly anxious.
It was already two o'clock, and Cai's mother was getting a little anxious. She grabbed the man's arm and asked, "Dad, will everything be alright?"
Mr. Cai was actually panicking, but he was still trying to appear calm on the surface.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
It wasn't until 3 a.m. that the lights in the operating room were turned off, and about a minute later, Tsai Ying was wheeled out.
"Family members, please step aside."
Gao Yun wanted to rush over and see, but the current conditions didn't allow it, and Cai Ying was still in a coma.
The medical staff and the patient arrived at the ward together, and then the nurses took over the duties of the patient, including administering oxygen and changing IV fluids.
Cai Ying was carried directly to the hospital bed by four or five male medical staff.
Throughout the entire process, the family members were not allowed to lift a finger.
"The surgery was successful, but the next 48 hours are crucial for the patient's full recovery. During this period, our medical staff will pay close attention to this area, and we also ask the patient's family to cooperate with our work."
"Absolutely, absolutely, we'll cooperate, we'll cooperate with everything."
Director Su nodded: "The patient cannot eat yet. Do not feed the patient any food or water for the next 48 hours. Our nurses will be watching over the patient. Family members should not make any decisions on their own. Remember, no food or water. Our staff will be in charge of the entire process."
"Okay, doctor. When will he wake up?"
"He should wake up in about half an hour. But he can't move or turn over. Family members can massage his legs and arms after an hour, but don't touch other parts of his body."
"Okay, thank you doctor."
Ye Nuan then walked around from the other side of the hospital bed. She took off her mask and said, "You family members, please remember this: for the next two days, you only need to massage his arms and legs. Do not feed him. Our nurses will take care of the specific tasks. We managed to pull him back from the brink of death with great difficulty, and we hope you family members can cooperate."
"I definitely will, thank you Dr. Ye."
"There are nurses here now. You family members can come to Director Su's office first, and I will explain the patient's specific situation to you."
