Chapter 143 Liu Hong Fourteen Reports

Sent: Saturday, September 11, 2004 11:05 AM Subject: Fourteen Reports by Liu Hong everyone, The last report was issued at the end of Ziyou's postoperative chemotherapy administration, and he was in an optimistic mood at the time.Unexpectedly, Ziyou's blood picture fell to a dangerous level. According to the doctor, platelets posed a threat to his life, so that on August 23, he issued a verbal critical illness notice to me, saying, "He (it, referring to platelets) ) may not come back".And I was also worried that his white blood cells were too low and he would be infected in a hospital with a bad environment.We have experienced so many storms, how could something happen here?We anxiously waited for the blood every minute, and I walked into the doctor's office time and time again, asking when the blood would come, and asking about possible rescue measures in case of internal internal or intracranial hemorrhage.I thought about where I might go if I needed to be rescued.I was calm and dignified while talking to the doctor.Back in the ward, my son said to me: "Mom, you have to laugh." This time, I really couldn't laugh.For the next two weeks, Ziyou's blood was mainly maintained by blood transfusions, every other day or even every day.This is a difficult process.After many consultations, I have gradually learned about chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia and blood transfusion. How to maximize the benefits of blood transfusion and prevent its possible risks is to transfuse just right.However, the blood transfusion standards in domestic hospitals are not the same, and the practices are not standardized enough, which makes us have to bear some possible risks of excessive blood transfusion.However, by the last week, I had won the initiative for a blood transfusion.As the chemotherapy drugs are gradually metabolized from the body, Ziyou's hematopoietic function will start to work slowly and weakly.So far, he has not had platelet transfusion for 5 days, which is progress.Although the platelets are at a low level of 29 (normal value 100-300), we are taking traditional Chinese medicine while protecting his body from bumps, doing blood tests every day, and waiting patiently.I have taken Ziyou home and will return to the hospital when a blood transfusion is necessary.

We have encountered all the dangers and difficulties that may be encountered in chemotherapy and surgery.Chemotherapy is the main means of treating malignant tumors.How to use the medicine, how much the dose is, and whether it can well fight side effects (bone marrow suppression, gastrointestinal reactions, etc.), and protect patients from infection are all related to the success or failure of chemotherapy.We have undergone four courses of chemotherapy and kept two chemotherapy diaries.The handling of each situation is documented, along with some lessons learned.In the six months since Ziyou became ill, several family members of friends were found to have cancer.They all experienced shock and pain.Some have entered active and effective treatment, while others are still in the early stages of exploration.If there are friends who need to know about related issues, I can provide our experience and lessons and the consultation opinions we have obtained in this process (during the process).Although the situation is changeable, it seems that the impact on Ziyou's psychology and life is not too great.He cares most about the diversity and fun of life, as long as he is not left idle, he can still laugh on the hospital bed.Even the doctors said he was not like a patient.Everyone who met him said the same.The doctor didn't understand why I carried such a heavy schoolbag every day, which was full of books and CDs for him.As for the tumor, Ziyou said it very lightly. He called it his brother and wrote in an article: "It is the best gift God gave me. It has stayed on my body for more than 10 years and has been very peaceful. On March 24, 2004, there was finally a crisp cry..." Since the beginning of school, Ziyou has received a letter from a classmate every day, and he is very happy about it, and he also replied to everyone.From spring to autumn, our friends accompanied us through one difficult time after another, either in person or in spirit.With love and help, Ziyou and I are about to step out of the hospital bed and breathe the air freely.

I wish everyone good health! Liu Hong
