In the cardiothoracic ward of the provincial capital, Xia Hua sat quietly. (Note 1)
He had tried his best, but fate did not favor him.
His father was lying on the hospital bed, so thin that he had almost no fat. Because of the esophageal tumor, he had not eaten for a long time, and he was in the final stage of his life.
When the disease was discovered last year, it was diagnosed as late - Stage lung cancer. Xia Hua's father firmly refused surgical treatment, subsequent chemotherapy, and targeted drug treatment.
He wanted to see the beautiful rivers and mountains of his country.
Under the care of Xia Hua and his wife, the old man got what he wanted.
In three months 'time, he had traveled to seven or eight provinces on and off. After he returned to the provincial capital, he had wanted to leave like this.
Xia Hua was not willing to give up. He went to find Gao Shaojie and wanted to try to extend the old man's life with the least injury.
