Start with the emergency physician

Zhou Yuan took Chuchu to Wu Lihua’s ward.

Wu Lihua was lying on the bed in a daze, hearing someone walk in, she slowly looked over, noticed that it was Zhou Yuan, and her eyes lit up.

“Doctor Zhou, you’re here!” Wu Lihua wanted to stand up.

Zhou Yuan hurriedly went up to help Wu Lihua and said, “How is your health lately?” ”

Wu Lihua was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn’t heard Zhou Yuan’s words.

“This little girl is…” Wu Lihua looked at Chuchu and thought.

Zhou Yuan was stunned.

Memory loss… This is one of the clinical manifestations of Alzheimer’s disease!

Alzheimer’s disease, also commonly known as Alzheimer’s disease. This is a neurological disease that is difficult to detect, and it is generally regarded as a person who has a bad memory when he is old.

However, memory decline, or more appropriately, memory decline in Alzheimer’s patients is actually memory impairment, in addition to aphasia, apraxia, impairment of visuospatial skills and other symptoms.

Wu Lihua herself has undergone cerebral infarction surgery, head damage, coupled with age, Alzheimer’s disease is not uncommon.

“Grandma Wu, let me give you an examination.” Zhou Yuan said.

He intends to test Wu Lihua’s cognitive level using the common simple mental scale.

This scale is relatively simple, the test time is also short, is currently the most common clinical measurement of Alzheimer’s disease intellectual impairment scale, the results need to be judged according to the degree of education of the measurer, illiterate level, the score is less than seventeen points, but the university level needs to be less than twenty-three points, to judge the degree of cognitive function.

Wu Lihua’s education level belongs to the primary school level, and the result should be more than 20 points.

“Good!” Wu Lihua was defenseless and said trustingly.

Zhou Yuan opened his mobile phone, downloaded a simple mental state scale on the Internet, and asked while recording: “What year is it now?” ”

“What month is it?”

“What time is it?”

Wu Lihua answered these simple questions correctly, but they were all a little hesitant.

“Now I say the names of the three things, and when I am finished, repeat the three things I said in order.” Zhou Yuandao.

Wu Lihua nodded, “Good.” ”

Zhou Yuan: “Watermelon, sun, grass…”

After being silent for a while, Zhou Yuan said, “Repeat.” ”

Wu Lihua: “Watermelon… Little grass…”

She hesitated, unable to remember what the middle one was, so she said casually: “Matches? ”

Zhou Yuan nodded and continued to start the next test.

Finally, the results came in.

Wu Lihua’s score is 20 points, which is the same as the minimum score line, but it also means that she has developed mild Alzheimer’s disease.

That is, the first stage of Alzheimer’s disease.

At this stage, patients will have problems such as memory loss, forgetting recent events, and decreased judgment. Moreover, patients cannot analyze, think, and judge a single thing, and it is difficult to deal with complex problems.

Zhou Yuan hurriedly left the ward, asking Zhang Ling to quickly contact the patient’s family.

After hearing that it was Alzheimer’s disease, the youngest daughter took time to run over in the afternoon.

“How come, my mother has been forgetting things, I also lost everything, why did I suddenly have Alzheimer’s?”

Zhou Yuan shook his head and said, “This disease is a common disease in the elderly, I did some basic examinations, and the results showed that she had Alzheimer’s disease.” ”

“I don’t have time to take care of her on weekdays, and I have to take care of her children, so how can I have time to take care of her… What can I do about this! ”

Zhou Yuan sighed and said, “I’m afraid you have to find time even if you don’t have time.” In the future, your mother’s thinking will become more and more infantile, more and more naïve, and finally even the basic living will become a problem, and someone must take care of her. ”

“I… How can I take care of it? ”

“Take care of your mother like she took care of you as a child.”

The youngest daughter’s face suddenly turned pale and said, “I have to consult with the eldest brother…”

After a while, the other three people also came, all with ugly faces, and no one was willing to speak first, for fear that they would be responsible in the end.

“Big brother, you say something.” The little daughter couldn’t help but say.

The eldest son was stunned for a moment: “How do I know what to do!” ”

The crowd fell silent again.

At this time, the third son suddenly spoke, and said: “Or we send our mother to a nursing home, and we will pay out together, so as to save trouble, and we don’t have to think about who is unfair!” ”

Zhou Yuan on the side was stunned.

“This idea can…” After a long time, the eldest brother spoke.

“I also agree, but the money can’t be divided equally, I usually take care of my mother, why should I pay the same money as you?” The little daughter said.

“The third brother has the best economic conditions and good work, and this idea was still proposed by him, and he gave a little more.” The second daughter said.

The third son was so angry that his face turned red: Sure enough, the one who raised it first would definitely suffer a loss!

“In this way, I am the eldest, I and the third one out of three, the second and the fourth out of two, either this way, or it will be divided equally.” The eldest son thought for a while and said.

“I agree.”

“Okay.”

The third son could only nod.

Zhou Yuan sighed and walked up: “Now your mother is still in the early days, there are still two or three years to cherish, there is no need to send to a nursing home…”

“If you don’t send it to a nursing home, you will take care of it?” The little daughter said impatiently.

Zhou Yuan was silent.

“Go see Mom?” The eldest brother asked.

“What else to see, all said Alzheimer’s, can you remember or not is still two different things!” The second daughter said.

“Forget it, I still have a little work, I have an important meeting today…” The third son sorted out his suit and glanced at his watch again.

“Okay, it just so happens that my wife is sick today, and I have to take care of her.”

Saying that, the eldest son also left the hospital in a hurry.

The youngest daughter who was left behind glanced at Zhou Yuan and said, “We will pay the hospitalization fee, you remember to let the nurse take care of my mother, if there is a problem, I will find you to settle the account!” ”

Saying that, he also left the hospital with his satchel.

Chuchu on the side was very puzzled, and said, “Uncles and aunts are so busy, they don’t have time to accompany Grandma Wu.” ”

Zhou Yuan touched Chuchu’s head and said, “Let’s go, let’s go and accompany Grandma Wu.” ”

The two walked to the ward, and Zhou Yuan noticed that Wu Lihua seemed to have gotten out of bed and asked, “You just went out?” ”

Wu Lihua hesitated for a moment and nodded, “It’s out… I didn’t hear that my son and daughter are coming, and I want to see it…”

Saying that, Wu Lihua put the four bananas she had grabbed in her hands back on the table.

At this time, Wu Lihua’s brain was very clear, and she couldn’t see Alzheimer’s disease at all.

“Child, thank you for taking care of you these days…” Wu Lihua said suddenly.

Zhou Yuan smiled: “This is all as it should be.” ”

After speaking, Zhou Yuan saw Wu Lihua take out something from the quilt, and then looked at Zhou Yuan: “Child, I have something I want to give you.” ”
