Chapter 400 - 397 Inspection (First Update, Request for Monthly Tickets, Request for Subscriptions)

Under Yu Chen’s care, Keiko’s father was smoothly transferred from his original hospital to Tokyo University Medical School Hospital.

In Japan, due to the tiered medical system, transferring hospitals is not an easy task. Since a transfer between hospitals requires a referral letter from the attending physician, without one, hospitals usually do not admit new patients.

Especially for top-tier University Hospitals like Tokyo University Medical School Hospital, patients from other hospitals hoping to transfer there would find it very difficult without a referral letter to get admitted for treatment.

However, with the special attention from Yu Chen, a professor at the University Hospital, Keiko’s father was still smoothly transferred from his previous hospital.

Yu Chen even went out of his way to arrange for Keiko’s mother and father to be in the same hospital room, to make it easier for Keiko to take care of both parents without having to run back and forth.

For a sixteen-year-old girl, taking care of both a father in a vegetative state and a mother who needed absolute bed rest was no easy feat. Even though most of the caring tasks were handled by the nurses, there was still a lot that Keiko had to do every day.

"Keiko, are you wiping your father’s face?" Hiromi Jounouchi and Yu Chen, when they came to visit the room, happened to see Keiko with a towel, wiping the face of her unresponsive father.

Because her father was in a vegetative state, all aspects of his care needed to be attended to by someone. Although many tasks could be handled by calling a nurse, things like wiping his face, hands, feet, and body still needed to be done by Keiko herself.

For a high school student of just sixteen years old, this was already quite difficult.

"Ah! Doctor sister! And Doctor Chen Yu!" When Keiko saw Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi approaching, she hurriedly greeted them, her face showing signs of exhaustion but filled with a joyful expression.

Pausing at this point, Chen Yu, seeing the instant sadness and disappointment on Keiko’s face caused by his words, smiled again before continuing, "However, fortunately, while the hope is slim, it’s not completely absent. In my previous research on human brain nerve repair, I also focused on and studied issues related to vegetative patients, and I have some insights into how to awaken the consciousness of patients who have been in prolonged comas. Thus, I have summarized a set of healing methods.

However, this healing method has not been commonly applied in clinical practice yet. If you are willing to let this gentleman undergo treatment with this new technology, I have about a seventy percent certainty that I can awaken his consciousness."

"Seventy percent certainty?" Chen Yu’s words immediately plunged Keiko into immense surprise; she couldn’t help but widen her eyes, looking at Chen Yu incredulously, afraid that she was dreaming. Explore more at novelhall.Côm

After Keiko’s father’s accident, various treatment methods had obviously been tried, and naturally, both Keiko and her mother knew that once the duration of a vegetative state exceeds six months, there’s essentially no chance of awakening.

Previously, doctors at the hospital also advised them to give up, suggesting that Keiko’s family life might still be difficult without the responsibility of maintaining the life of a vegetative person, but at least it would be much better than the present.

But Keiko’s mother did not give up; despite the extreme hardship, she was unwilling to abandon her husband and insisted on trying every possible treatment to heal him.

"Doctor, please save him!" Keiko’s mother on the bed made an effort to stand up, but Hiromi Jounouchi immediately held her down; however, even so, Keiko’s mother continued to plead with Chen Yu, "Doctor! Please save him at all costs! I only wish for him to wake up! My child and I cannot be without him!"

Looking at the emotional Keiko’s mother and Keiko, who had the same earnest eyes, Chen Yu nodded slightly, "I understand, I will heal him."

Seeing Chen Yu’s promise, Keiko and her mother hurriedly expressed their gratitude towards him, with Keiko bowing deeply at a 90-degree angle to Chen Yu to convey her thanks.

"There’s no need to be so formal, and madam, you are injured yourself, so please take care of your health," Chen Yu replied with a courteous smile to Keiko’s mother before continuing, "This afternoon, I will arrange for a nurse to take this gentleman for a comprehensive examination. After confirming his current condition, we will start the treatment, so please don’t worry."

After finishing, Chen Yu and Hiromi Jounouchi checked Keiko’s mother’s condition one more time, making sure she was stable, before leaving the room amid Keiko and her mother’s words of thanks.
