In Korea (3)
[You used a level-up stone. Hati’s level increases to Lv.21.]
Ki-seok Choi summoned Hati after using the item.
Weeeeeeeee.
As the light emitted, Hathi, who resembled Tinkerbell, appeared.
At the same time, a soft light appeared from his body.
Blessing of Wind, one of Hati’s skills.
This is a useful skill that restores stamina when not treated or treated.
Choi Ki-seok lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
There were a lot of things I wanted to do and a lot of things I had to do.
How can I make the most of my long-awaited vacation?
As my worries deepened, a notification crossed my mind.
[warning! warning! There is a patient nearby.]
I jumped up at Hathi’s notification.
I was once again surprised by the fact that I had not turned off special skill reconnaissance, and was even more surprised by the fact that there was a patient nearby.
There was no one at home now.
Could it be that there is an emergency patient in another house?
As his doubts deepened, a beam of white light reached towards him.
This is a signal from Hathi.
Choi Ki-seok walked along the beam of light and spotted Hathi hovering above the general’s head.
Now that I think about it, I haven’t checked on the general since I came home.
I turned off the notifications and used the Eye of Hippocrates on the general.
‘Oh my…’
The moment I confirmed the general’s diagnosis and condition, my face crumpled.
“General. Are you okay?”
“Turn off. Turning off”
The general looked up at him.
A different appearance from his usual healthy appearance.
Ki-Seok Choi hugged Jang-Gang and went down to the parking lot.
Then I called my mother and asked if there was a veterinary hospital she often went to.
“If you go to Yeongdeungpo, there is a large animal hospital. But why is there a hospital all of a sudden?”
“It looks like the general is in a lot of pain. Is surgery possible there?
“Surgery?”
My mother’s voice rose.
“Does the general need surgery?”
“I’m not sure, but it might be possible.”
“Ugh… last night. It seemed like he wasn’t feeling well from the start… and he had surgery at that hospital.”
“Okay. I’ll call you again after the treatment is over.”
I typed the name of the veterinary hospital into the navigation and
drove off. On the way to the hospital, Janggun continued to moan.
The sad sound made my hands tighten on the steering wheel. Even though he was a doctor. There was nothing I could do for the general. What
he was looking at was a person, not a dog.
I parked the car in the parking lot and went into the animal hospital. There were quite a few dogs and dog owners waiting for their turn in the waiting area. It looked
no different from a regular hospital. .
“I’d like to see my dog get treatment.”
“Have you ever received treatment before?”
“Yes. “There is.”
Choi Ki-seok registered and sat down in the waiting area. He then gently stroked the general’s head. He
was someone who usually ignored him, but seeing him in pain made him feel pity.
There is nothing more sad in a person’s life than being physically ill. .
It would be no different if it were an animal.
“Choi Ki-seok, please come in.”
After a long wait, the nurse called.
Choi Ki-seok entered the treatment room with General.
It was awkward to sit across from the veterinarian with General in the middle.
Animal hospital It was my first time coming here and receiving treatment from a veterinarian.
“Hello. “How can my dog be sick?”
“I have a stomachache. When I touched it with my hand, it was swollen.”
“When and how much feed did you give him?”
the veterinarian asked, examining the general.
“I don’t know exactly because I didn’t give it to you…”
“Keuuuuuck.”
The general said. He hung up and vomited.
Sour-smelling vomit flowed down on the table.
“Teacher. “Do you think the general has AGDV (Acute Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus)?”
“I guess you’ve raised a lot of dogs? As of now, AGDV is most likely. “He has severe abdominal distension and can you hear this sound?” When
the vet tapped the general’s stomach, a pounding sound was heard.
“This sound is a typical symptom of AGDV. You did a good job of bringing him in before the symptoms got worse.”
Acute gastric dilatation and torsion often occur in large dogs.
It refers to a disease in which the stomach expands and twists around the axis of the body, and the fatality rate was close to 40 percent.
“After blood and radiology tests , We will take necessary measures. Details will need to be confirmed after the test results are released, but it is highly likely that surgery will be needed. “I need to fix the position of the stomach.”
“I understand.”
Choi Ki-seok left the treatment room and moved to the treatment room.
A nurse at the animal hospital was preparing to give Janggun fluids.
Fuuuuuk.
The catheter pierced the skin, but it did not enter the blood vessel. Blood did not form because it could not be pierced.
The nurse tried to find a blood vessel by moving the catheter, and every time she did so, the general let out a pitiful moan. The boy, who had no strength to move, began to toss and turn and struggle. Thanks to that, the other nurse who was
assisting Ki-Seok Choi had a hard time.
“If it’s okay, can I hold the line?”
“I understand what you’re thinking, but this isn’t something anyone can do.”
“I’m a doctor. I’m not a veterinarian, but I can handle the line work.”
Ki-seok Choi took out the business card of Uijin University Hospital from his wallet.
Although he is not a doctor at Uijin University Hospital, talking about Mayjo Clinic would arouse suspicion.
“Are you really a doctor?”
“Yes. . If you have any doubts, you can check.”
“Hmm… Then, let me ask you this one more time. The general’s veins are hard to see…”
“Yes. Thank you.”
Choi Ki-seok looked at the general and stroked his hair.
“It’s okay now. I’ll finish it so it won’t hurt.”
The general nodded as if he understood what he said and licked the back of his hand with his tongue.
After washing his hands thoroughly, Ki-seok Choi disinfected the general’s feet widely with an alcohol cotton pad. He
then used a tourniquet to disinfect the upper part of the foot. After tying it, I looked for a blood vessel.
‘Good. That’s enough…’
I held the syringe in my hand and boldly pierced the skin.
Fuuuuuck!
Red blood pooled around the needle.
[The vampire title effect is activated. Success rate of treatment using injections. It goes to 100 percent and the pain decreases by 50 percent.
“Wow. “You succeeded in one go?”
“ABGA also does it. Well.”
“I’ll go into the examination room now.”
Choi Ki-seok watched the general being examined and faced the doctor again.
“Acute gastric dilatation and volvulus are correct, as I examined. First, we will decompress you to remove the gas in your abdomen. As I said earlier, we will also perform gastric fixation surgery.”
“Doctor. Is it possible to observe the surgery?”
“Our hospital does not allow observation of the surgery. I’m sorry, but please wait in the waiting room. “The surgery will take about two hours.”
“Okay,”
he said, and returned to the waiting table.
While anxiously waiting for the surgery, I looked at other people’s pets with the eyes of Hippocrates.
They say it’s an animal disease, so it’s not a big deal with people. It was no different.
One dog was suffering from cystitis and another was suffering from glaucoma.
But just then.
Ringing!
A man came rushing into the veterinary hospital with the sound of the doorbell.
There was a snake in his hand.
“Over there. Do you also provide treatment for reptiles? “Our cone hasn’t eaten for several days and isn’t moving very well.”
“I’m sorry. We are a hospital that only treats dogs and cats. You should look elsewhere for special animal care.”
“Then, is there a place nearby that provides reptile care? If this continues, I think we’re going to die.”
The man stamped his feet.
“There is a partner hospital in Gangseo-gu, would you like to go there?”
“Thank you.”
The man took the business card and left the hospital in a hurry.
Choi Ki-seok looked at the man’s back. He smiled bitterly as
he looked at the image of a patient suffering from a thoracic surgery emergency.
If there is a patient suffering from an abdominal aortic aneurysm, the patient will have to go to several hospitals and eventually go to a university hospital. University
hospital This is because, except for, there are almost no places with thoracic surgery departments.
Just as I was lost in my thoughts, a young woman hurriedly came into the animal hospital.
There was a cat in her arms.
“Hey. Please take a look at our Miran. He’s suddenly not breathing.”
“He’s not breathing?”
The nurse at the reception opened her eyes round. Then she brought in a senior nurse and had her look at the cat.
“I can’t do that. “You have to do CPR right away.”
The senior nurse grabbed the cat’s hind legs and made the cat’s head look down on the floor.
Puck! Puck! Puck!
He tapped the cat’s shoulder with the back of his hand.
Afterwards, he used the Heimlich maneuver to secure the airway like he would for a person. “I’ll do
the artificial respiration.”
The junior nurse covered the cat’s mouth and breathed through its nose. A
heart massage followed.
With the CPR of the two nurses, the cat barely recovered its vitals.
“Thank you so much.”
“No. It’s natural. You should first register and receive treatment.”
“Yes. All right.
Choi Ki-seok is amazed at the animal CPR he saw for the first time.
He thought that if the same situation were to arise, he would be able to deal with it in the same way.
“Whoa… I’m strangely busy today.”
“Really. It seems like there are twice as many patients as usual. It’s usually not this busy in the morning.”
The nurses stared at Choi Ki-seok as they talked.
Although I just looked at them without thinking, I felt a prickly feeling.
Could it be that the Fanta title also affects animals?
After a long wait, General’s surgery was completed.
Choi Ki-seok looked at the unconscious general with the eyes of Hippocrates.
After the surgery was completed successfully, the condition returned to normal.
The diagnosis name did not appear.
“The surgery was completed successfully. However, it would be better to stay in the hospital for about two days for observation.”
“Yes. Please.”
Choi Ki-seok calculated the medical expenses and left the hospital.
Having come to the realization that ‘everything alive hurts’.
* * *
That evening.
Ki-Seok Choi participated in a dinner party at the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Uijin University.
It was a meaningful event just to be able to see the faces we missed in one place.
Cheeeeeeeek.
As the meat was cooked and the glasses were flowing, the story blossomed.
“So, Professor Yoon is the only one I can’t see?”
“I felt a bit uncomfortable today and didn’t come.”
Choi Ki-seok kept his mouth shut in response to Kim Tae-sik’s answer.
I immediately realized why she felt uncomfortable at company dinners.
Now that I think about it, Jihye Yoon didn’t say a word when she visited Uijin University yesterday and talked to the Saber team.
“Ah. That’s right! Teacher Kim, congratulations.”
“Why all of a sudden?”
“I heard you started dating Professor Yoon?”
“You already know? Who heard it from?”
In response to Kim Tae-sik’s question, Lee Young-ho, who was sitting next to him, raised his hand.
“Why are you saying what I should say? Do you want to get scolded?”
Kim Tae-sik playfully punched Lee Young-ho on the side.
“Anyway, it’s good. You two get along well. I hope you will continue to do well.”
“Cancer. That’s how it should be. Because I will make Jihye happy.”
“Do you use the honorific language towards professors even in private?”
“It’s still awkward to call me sister. I have to sort out my titles soon.”
Kim Tae-sik told a story about his relationship with Yoon Ji-hye, and Choi Ki-seok listened carefully. As
time passed, an hour had already passed since the dinner.
Choi Ki-seok asked for understanding from the people at the table and went to Jang Hyuk-pil’s seat. “Who is this
?” Isn’t it Choi Ki-seok, the hero of Meijo?”
“Chief, don’t do that. I feel like I’m going to die of embarrassment.”
“It’s okay. It’s okay. I’ll give you CPR before you die.”
Jang Hyuk-pil chuckled with a drunken face.
“I have one question. Can I ask you?”
“Anything.”
“Vice-hospital director Jo Ji-hwan’s training. “I’m curious about the times.”
Choi Ki-seok’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.
He still couldn’t believe it.
Vice Hospital Director Cho Ji-hwan’s inclination was to be patient-centered.
