Chapter 2537: Dare Not Mention

The painting-like scene of handsome doctors and beautiful women with a medical vibe makes him sigh with pleasure.

His mischievous friends and the Cao Family have good reasons to favor this pair.

Cao Yong put away the umbrella, hearing the car and seeing his brother’s mischievous friend arrive, caution subtly appeared in his eyes.

With flair, Liu Huaiyu got out of the car holding a briefcase and asked him, "Why are you here today? Did Cao Zhao tell you?"

If these two sentences were unrelated, they implied who each was here for today.

In response, Cao Yong said, "Today is the weekend; aren’t you taking a break to come over as well?"

It’s normal for doctors to be concerned and come to check on patients.

After hearing this, Liu Huaiyu meaningfully patted him on the shoulder: Little brother, don’t lie. Everyone knows what your little thoughts are about.

His brother’s group of pediatric mischievous friends were only a year or two older, all day claiming to be his brother treating him as a kid, truly a pediatric doctor’s habit of seeing everyone as children.

Wordlessly, Cao Yong turned to hand the umbrella to his junior colleagues. Ready to proceed together and escort the child into the hospital.

Fang Ze isn’t a children’s hospital; whether to have a PICU depends on funding and staff, and it’s indeed lacking. After Xiao Yu was seriously injured the previous day, she could only be transferred to the ICU.

On the way, everyone was concerned about the child’s and elderly’s emotions.

Due to a particularly special group of family members coming today, the main medical team of the patient gathered at the ICU’s entrance, including both neurosurgeons and ICU doctors.

Among them, Zhai Yunsheng’s presence was particularly noteworthy. Liu Huaiyu sighed at the sight: Cao Family stands out wherever they go.

Seeing his nephew arrive, Zhai Yunsheng said, "You said you would come, and you really did." Indicating he didn’t expect Cao Yong to actually show up. With family members present today, it wasn’t the best time for doctors to visit patients or engage in academic exchanges.

Without waiting for his nephew’s explanation, Zhai Yunsheng quickly noticed another figure beside his nephew, instantly realizing: His nephew wasn’t purely here for the patient today.

"How’s the situation?" Liu Huaiyu went over to Doctor Fang Ze’s group to inquire about Xiao Yu’s latest condition. At Shou’er, some rumors were heard, but the information was fragmented and incomplete, leaving one worried about possible mistakes.

After confirming he was the attending physician of the patient’s sister, Fang Ze’s doctor whispered in his ear: Brainstem death.

Liu Huaiyu’s expression turned somber immediately. Even an orthopedic doctor knows what brainstem death implies. Earlier reports said the child had severe cranial brain injury. It seems after so many days of continuous observation by various neurosurgery experts, a correct diagnosis for the child from a medical and academic perspective had been reached.

The remaining issue is whether the family can accept reality. If the family doesn’t accept it, doctors certainly cannot remove the ventilator; they must continue revival efforts until the patient’s cardiac respiratory death occurs.

It can only be said that some family members need time for psychological adjustment, but how long that would be is uncertain. Doctor Fang Ze can only respect the family’s opinion. From a certain perspective, at this stage, doctors are essentially treating the family’s "heartache" through the patient’s treatment.

Liu Huaiyu thought of other mischievous friends including Cao Zhao wanting to come but not daring; each of them has pediatric patients waiting for organ transplants and fears their visit might agitate the family.

Why? This is a case preparing for potential organ donation due to brain death.

Doctor Fang Ze’s team doesn’t even dare mention this issue.
