Daily Life in the 70s

Another long wait ensued. The door to the emergency room swung open, and the three people outside reflexively stood up, "Doctor, how’s the patient?"

The doctor in a white coat removed his mask and nodded at them, "The baby has been temporarily saved, but it’s not certain. She took a heavy blow to the stomach, and now the fetus is very unstable. She needs to be hospitalized for observation."

The three of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief, then nodded earnestly, their eyes fixed on the doctor, hoping he would say more.

"Who will come to handle the hospitalization procedures?"

Shen Yixiang hurriedly raised her hand, "Me, I’ll go, I’m a family member of the patient."

The doctor nodded and motioned for her to follow the nurse behind him.

Gao Lingfeng, watching the doctor ready to leave, quickly asked, "Doctor, how is the patient now? Can we go in to see her? Can she eat anything?"

The doctor glanced at him and nodded, "You can see her, but please be careful. She needs to rest now and can’t be stressed. It’s best not to talk much, don’t feed her anything for now. Let’s wait until she’s over this period. However, she can drink some broth. Use a straw for her to sip on. She can’t move right now, and that’s very important. Absolutely no movement, and no significant head movements either. The baby could be miscarried at any time, and you as family members must be cautious."

Shen Yixiang, just about to leave, heard this and quickly turned back. She fumbled a pen and paper out of her pocket, scribbling in a fluster, "Doctor, what else? I don’t know anything, just tell me, and I will make note of it."
