Chapter 882 I Really Have Such a Friend

medical center.

ward.

"...they told me the heart belonged to a young girl.

She was hit and killed while begging for a ride, and now I see hitchhiking girls all the time when I drive. "

The patient explained why: "I shouldn't have had this heart in the first place, we Navajos don't even touch dead bodies.

Because their souls are still up there, sewing dead bodies into mine, it's..."

"wait."

Adam was surprised: "Mr. Bidowni, didn't you come to transplant a new heart?"

"Do not!"

Mr. Bidowney yelled, "I don't want a new heart, I'm here to ask you to help me get that girl's heart out!"

"You don't want a new heart?"

Dr. Dixon said, "Clay Bidoni, do you know that without a new heart, you can only live with a machine for a short time before a sudden and painful death?"

"..."

The little man looked at Dr. Dixon speechlessly, and then at Adam.

His eyes were full of 'Dr. Duncan, this is completely different from the emotionless but not indifferent you taught us'.

Adam returned a calm look.

"I appreciate you telling me what advice you think is best for me..."

Mr. Bidowni was also stunned, but shook his head in a good temper.

"It's not a suggestion, it's a fact."

Dr. Dixon's Sheldon's honesty is almost breaking through the sky.

"...I would like to say that instead of suffering from uneasy conscience every day, it is better to live with peace of mind, as long as you can live."

Mr. Bidowni smiled wryly: "I'm only concerned about taking the heart out of my body now, what will happen?"

"Take it for pathology, and then dispose of it as medical waste."

said Dr Dixon.

"I have to come back to pay homage."

demanded Mr Bidownie.

"We must abide by the law. Hospitals have regulations, and regulations are regulations!"

Dr. Dixon emphasized with erratic eyes: "Rules cannot be broken!"

With that, she turned and left.

"Mr. Bidowney, we will consider your request."

Adam comforted him, and followed him out.

"Doctor Duncan."

The little man followed suit, and said in a low voice: "I have a proposal, Doctor Dixon seems to be the kind of person who respects rules too much.

We also try our best to meet the needs of patients.

It's better to go to the director and make a rule now, that is, to respect those patients who have faith.

This is the best of both worlds. "

"Good idea."

Adam nodded first, and then said with a half-smile: "This may be useful, Dr. Dixon will indeed abide by the new rules and regulations of the hospital.

But do you think Dr. Dixon is a fool?

Or do you think a fool can become a famous cardiothoracic surgeon? "

"……Do not."

The little man froze.

"of course not!"

Adam smiled and said, "The director asked us to keep her as much as possible, will it work if you do this?

If you don't respect her, why bother, just let me take over the operation! "

"I see."

The little man nodded, and then said with a puzzled look: "But Dr. Duncan, a doctor like her is completely different from what you taught us."

"Every famous doctor has his own temper and habits."

Adam looked at him: "Compared with Dr. House next door, Dr. Dixon is completely normal.

But no matter how bad-tempered Dr. House is and how poisonous his mouth is, he can really cure diseases that others cannot.

So he can care less about these ground rules.

After all, it is the patient or the patient's family who asks him.

Of course, even if it is as strong as Dr. House.

Because of these unique bad habits, it was also very difficult.

Even if you become a famous doctor or even become a legend in the future, I don't want you to learn from him.

What I teach you are all normal norms.

And Dr. Dixon is not as powerful as Dr. House, but he does not have the bad temper and poisonous tongue of Dr. House.

She only has social barriers, so she behaves not in line with normal norms.

It's not that she doesn't want to, it's that she can't.

Understand? "

"clear."

The little man hesitated: "But since she has such a problem, why does she still want to be a doctor?

Wouldn't it be nice to be a researcher in a lab? That way you don't have to deal with people. "

"Maybe her dream is to be a doctor who saves patients?"

Adam laughed and said: "Although she may have social barriers, if she is not indifferent in her heart, but actively wants to communicate with other people?

In short, there are various reasons.

As long as she can do her job well, then we have to respect her.

And her being able to become a famous doctor these years, instead of being revoked her medical license, is enough to explain everything. "

The little man was silent.

operating room.

Dr. Dixon is the chief surgeon, Adam is the first assistant, and the little man is the second assistant.

"Cutting through the adhesive so quickly, I still see it on the second doctor."

The little man exclaimed.

Dr. Dixon didn't realize it, and concentrated on the operation.

Seeing this, the little man stopped talking, and the operating room was completely silent.

"Okay, the donor's heart has been separated, the cannula of the bypass valve is ready, the next step is to do L-avd, eh!"

Adam held the separated heart, reminded, and then made a sound of surprise.

"This is wrong, it's impossible, his heart is beating, it's impossible! There shouldn't be a heartbeat!"

Doctor Dixon was shocked.

"It is possible."

Adam reminded: "Dr. Dixon, in heterotopic heart transplantation, the patient's heart and the transplanted heart work together to provide blood circulation to the patient.

It must have taken as long as six years for Mr. Bidowney's heart to repair itself in this system and regain full function.

It's rare, but documented. "

"Very atypical! But it's documented."

Dr. Dixon looked at Adam: "I've never seen it before."

"Me too."

Adam laughed and said, "It seems that Mr. Bidownie doesn't need a new heart."

Dr. Dixon nodded, bowed his head and continued with the operation.

Wait until the surgery is over.

"I'm only interested in one thing."

Dr. Dixon said suddenly: "Heart! I love it and its regular beating.

I love it because it's predictable and I know it all.

I love the color, it's comforting. "

"I believe."

Adam laughed: "Love is the foundation of great achievements, and Dr. Dixon's skill is great."

"What to do with the removed heart?"

asked Dr. Dixon.

"Give it to the pathology department, and how to deal with it afterwards is a problem between the hospital and the patient."

Adam smiled and said, "Dr. Dixon, you have done what you should do and completed this operation perfectly. That's enough."

"Dr. Duncan, does your friend have Asperger's syndrome?"

Dr. Dixon glanced at Adam.

The little man looked over immediately.

He trusted Adam's judgment now.

Because patients with Asperk syndrome are not alone in their hearts, they are very eager and try their best to connect with others.

They are often isolated simply because they do not understand the non-verbal messages conveyed by other people's facial expressions and body language, and lack skills.

AKA can't understand most of the irony, humor, and metaphors, and the communication methods are rigid and stylized, and they stick to words.

In addition, there are a series of characteristics such as eating at fixed times, going to the toilet, sleeping, special hobbies, etc...

"Oh, of course."

Adam couldn't help laughing: "My friend doesn't just have Asperk's.

At the same time, he suffers from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, cleanliness disorder, narcissism, excessive timidity...and countless special symptoms that have not been revealed for the time being.

But he, like Newton and Einstein, who may also suffer from Asperk's syndrome, is a super genius. "

Dr. Dixon looked away and said nothing more.

Out of the operating room.

The patient, Mr. Bidowney, wakes up, and Dr. Dixon argues with him about his beliefs.

Dr. Dixon believed in nothing but science.

And Mr. Bidowni pointed out that science is also a kind of belief, but it is only a belief that can be seen and touched.

Both of them are moderates. After expressing their ideas, they stopped arguing forcibly.

"How are you feeling, Doctor Dixon?"

After get off work, the chief of surgery was waiting by the elevator, looking at Dr. Dixon who had changed into a red suit and came.

"I like here."

Dr. Dixon ignored the director, walked into the elevator, and then said what the director of surgery wanted to hear most.
