Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 198

Chapter 198: Test Result ( 2 )
Father Li nodded and said nothing. They waited in the room for nearly an hour before a nurse opened the door and walked in. When the nurse saw Li Chenmo, she was stunned. She thought Doctor Yu was already handsome, but when she saw this man, her heart fluttered and began to beat wildly.

Sensing her gaze, Lu Jueyu coughed lightly and asked, “Comrade, have the test results come out?”

When she came to her senses, the nurse coughed to cover up her embarrassment, and said, “Yes, the doctor wants to talk to the family.”

Li Chenmo stood up and said, “I’ll go.”

“Husband, I’ll go with you too.” Lu Jueyu also stood up and looked at him.

Li Chenmo thought for a while and said, “Okay. Father, we will be back after talking to the doctor.”

Father Li nodded and took a seat after they left the room. Sitting on the chair next to the bed, Father Li saw the bruises on Jiao Siyu’s body, and a thought flashed in his mind that his second son might have beaten his wife. But he dismissed the possibility when he remembered how much his second son wanted to cozy up to his wife’s family. There was no way his second son would beat his second daughter-in-law.

Since he didn’t know what happened, he could only wait for his second son to come and ask him. As for the second daughter-in-law’s illness, it may be due to malnutrition or food shortage. His second son is so unreliable that he can’t even guarantee his wife’s food.

At the same time, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu came to the doctor’s office. After the nurse knocked on the door, she heard a voice coming from inside, “Please come in.”

The nurse opened the door and said, “Professor Zhang, the patient’s family is here.”

Professor Zhang raised his head and saw a couple walking into the room. He smiled at them and said, “Please have a seat.”

Lu Jueyu looked at the old man in front of her in surprise. This old man looked familiar to her as if she had seen him before somewhere. But she couldn’t remember when or where she had seen him.

After they took their seats, Professor Zhang said, “Comrades, you can call me Professor Zhang. I am the attending doctor of Jiao Siyu. We have received the test results and the patient’s condition is not optimistic.”

“Professor Zhang, what disease does my sister-in-law have?” Li Chenmo asked.

“How is her condition?” Lu Jueyu added.

Professor Zhang placed several documents in front of them and said, “Here are her test results. We found a lot of rashes and bruises on her body. She also has breathing problems. Her immune system is also lower than the average person.”

“Does the patient have symptoms such as sudden weight loss, fever, headache, or fatigue?” Professor Zhang asked.

Lu Jueyu thought of the last time Jiao Siyu came to her house and said, “Yes, I noticed that in less than a week, my sister-in-law lost a lot of weight. Every time she finished speaking, she was out of breath, just like she had been after a run. As for fever, headache, or fatigue, I’m not sure.”

Professor Zhang nodded and said, “At present, judging from the symptoms, there is a 50% possibility that the patient has leukemia. We need to wait for the blood test results to confirm the patient’s condition and decide on the next treatment plan.”

When Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo heard Professor Zhang’s words, they both fell silent. Li Chenmo didn’t know much about leukemia, but Lu Jueyu knew that blood cancer was difficult to treat.

Although the first isogenic BMT was successfully performed in 1964, the bone marrow was obtained from identical twins. The first successful bone marrow transplantation from an unrelated donor was not until 1973, and she did not know when the first successful operation was in China. What’s more, the Chinese Bone Marrow Donation Program (CMDP) was launched in 1992 and began serving the public in 2001. Therefore, it is impossible for them to find an unrelated donor.

It seems that the only possible treatment for blood cancer in this era is radiation therapy. While cancer can be treated, it takes a long time, and a lot of money, and the treatment is high-risk. More importantly, they didn’t know what stage Jiao Siyu’s cancer had reached or what her chances were of making a full recovery.

“As a patient’s family member, you need to stay strong and provide moral support for the patient. The patient’s mental health is also very important in treatment.” Professor Zhang said.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Jueyu nodded and said, “Thank you, Professor Zhang. Please notify us when the blood test results come out. We will discuss the next step with the family.”

Professor Zhang nodded, hesitated for a moment, and added, “Although this will cause stress to the patient, it is better for the patient to understand her situation. But of course, the decision will depend on what the family thinks is best.”

“Thank you, Professor Zhang. We will consider your suggestion.” Li Chenmo nodded and said.

After leaving Professor Zhang’s office and returning to the ward, they saw Li Chenze and Zhang Dongmei were already there. Li Chenze was talking to Father Li, and Zhang Dongmei was sorting out the clothes she brought for Jiao Siyu. In addition to clothes and daily necessities, she also brought some food.

Seeing them entering the ward, Zhang Dongmei said, “Third brother, third sister-in-law, you are here.”

“Sister-in-law, brother.” Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu greeted them and walked to Father Li.

“How is it? What did the doctor say?” Li’s father asked.

“The doctor said that we have to wait for the blood test results before deciding on the treatment plan. At present, the possibility that my second sister-in-law has leukemia is 50%. The doctor also said that it is best to let her know her condition, but I am worried that she will not be able to accept the news.” Li Chenmo said.

“What is leukemia? Is this disease dangerous?” Li Chenze asked.
