I can extract side effects

Kun City, a community in Dongcheng.

In the evening, with her head down, Sun Xiaoling hurried through a tree-lined avenue and entered the unit building.

She just went to the market to buy a chicken and came back, and she was going to make some chicken soup for her sick old mother to nourish her body.

My mother has been suffering from Alzheimer's for six years, and the condition has been very serious. Although the condition has been controlled by taking medicine, there is no sign of improvement.

The doctor said that the mother's brain tissue had been damaged, and the existing AD specific drugs alone would no longer work.

Unless there is really a drug that can repair brain damage, it will be possible to cure it.

However, such a drug has not yet been developed, and doctors do not report any hope, because it is too difficult.

She wondered if she could wait for such a drug to be available in her lifetime.

My mother became moody soon after she became ill, and didn't remember her very much. She couldn't take care of herself and needed someone to take care of her.

Fortunately, her family's financial conditions are not bad, so she simply resigned and concentrated on taking care of patients at home.

However, such patients are difficult to take care of, which is quite torturous. They cannot live without people 24 hours a day, cleaning, cooking, feeding, bathing, coaxing the elderly, etc. all day long.

It is almost equivalent to 24 hours without rest time, because the old man may give you a problem anytime and anywhere.

Just like now.

As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by a foul smell.

Sun Xiaoling's complexion changed, she didn't even have time to change her shoes, she immediately threw the vegetables in her hand on the ground, and rushed into the living room.

There was a lump of fresh poop on the floor, from which the stench emanated.

She covered her forehead and was silent for a while, then turned and walked to the kitchen, opened the rice vat to have a look.

As expected, it was empty, with no rice, only a bubble of suspicious yellow liquid.

Sun Xiaoling suddenly staggered and almost fell to the ground.

This scene is really too familiar.

Every week or two, the mother would stage this scene.

The elderly are unable to take care of themselves, thinking and behaving like a toddler, and profligate urination has become a habit.

The most tormenting thing is that my mother doesn't like to wear diapers. The pants are often wet, and she even urinates in the rice tank.

Sun Xiaoling lost all thoughts immediately, and a thought of giving up emerged from her mind, but was soon suppressed by the remaining sliver of rationality.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps approaching quickly from behind.

With the sound of laughter, a figure rushed over and pushed her to the ground.

Sun Xiaoling yelled angrily, "Mom, why are you crazy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a withered hand grabbing a handful of black, foul-smelling objects and wiping them towards his face.

She turned pale with fright, backed up again and again, crawled several steps backwards, away from her mother, and then looked over in shock.

I saw the white-haired mother sitting on the ground, opening her hands to her with a smile on her face.

And the palms of her hands were black, exuding a strong stench.

Sun Xiaoling was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, and was about to curse.

Suddenly, like an electric shock in my mind, I remembered a scene from my childhood.

At that time, she was only seven or eight years old, and she often learned how to make dumplings in the kitchen with her mother.

At that time, the mother and daughter were also like this. When they met, they smeared each other's faces with flour.

Paint the other person's face white, and then make dumplings together with the white marks on the head and face.

The white flour on the face will not be washed off until it is time to eat.

Sit down and have a good meal.

Now, the mother has forgotten herself.

But in her heart, she still loves her as she did back then, and was about to put flour on her face.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing.

But with a smile, his eyes suddenly became sour, and tears kept falling like dropped pearls.

My mother loves to be clean all her life, and only when she is making dumplings, will she play the game of spreading flour with her.

But when he was old and sick, he became like this.

How sad would it be if she was conscious?

Thinking about it, she burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably, her shoulders trembling violently.

She didn't even dare to cry aloud, for fear of frightening her mother.

At this moment, she thought of how she took care of her mother alone since she was seriously ill.

Immediately, my heart hurts so much that I can't breathe, and I feel the pain that my internal organs are being torn apart.

At the beginning, my mother could still remember her and did not lose consciousness, but she often couldn't remember the way and needed her to take her out.

Slowly, more and more seriously, the mother became irrational.

Not knowing people and being unreasonable is actually good, but the terrible thing is that it will cause damage.

And she had no choice but to hold back her heartache and grievance, and try her best to clean up.

The old man would not only tear up his clothes piece by piece, but also tear off the curtains and tear them to pieces, and then he simply stopped installing curtains.

You can't miss a bite when you eat, otherwise you will yell and scold her, and someone in the family will complain, saying that your daughter will starve to death.

If the food was not to my liking, she would beat her, and even hold her down and beat her hard.

Although she is old, the old man suffering from Alzheimer's is surprisingly strong, and she is often beaten black and blue all over her body.

From time to time, at one or two o'clock in the morning, they would clamor to go out for a walk.

At night, in order not to disturb the people, she could only dress her mother, take a pack of supplies, and go out carefully.

In fact, Sun Xiaoling didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, she is my own mother, who has worked hard all her life, and when she is old and should enjoy happiness, she suffers from such a disease, which should be taken care of meticulously.

But this kind of messy peeing and endless tossing is to her.

Like the last straw on the camel's back, she was tortured until she lost all hope.

The mother he once loved the most, tortured her to death day by day, and the two of them suffered together.

If the mother is conscious, she must not be able to accept living like this.

She was thinking tangled in her heart, and a thought that made her tremble all over came out uncontrollably.

Suddenly, a cheerful cell phone rang.

Sun Xiaoling regained her sanity in an instant, as if she had just woken up from a big dream.

It's just the back, but it's already soaked.

She hurriedly took out her mobile phone and answered the call.

"Hi, hello, it's Dr. Zheng. My mother is still the same, she is delirious, and often beats and scolds me."

"I just came back from grocery shopping, and my mother peed indiscriminately again, oh..."

Sun Xiaoling smiled wryly and said, "Sometimes, I really wish that my mother would suffer from some other illness. Even if she was paralyzed in bed, it would be better than what she is doing now."

Dr. Zheng seemed to understand her family's situation very well, and said with deep empathy: "Indeed, the patient's situation puts too much pressure on the family."

Sun Xiaoling sighed for a long time, her tone filled with endless numbness: "To be honest, I'm on the verge of collapse now, and I don't know how long I can hold on. I'm really about to be tortured crazy by my mother."

"I want to tell you a good news. Finally, there is a drug for patients with advanced Alzheimer's disease. It is a new drug produced by Sanqing Group. It is undergoing the first phase of clinical trials in our hospital. I think of your family's situation and would like to ask if you would like to let you Is Mom coming to test the medicine?"

Sun Xiaoling was shocked immediately, overjoyed and said: "Doctor Zheng, you are not comforting me, are you really such a medicine?"

"Of course, if you are willing, you can sign up on the Longtu APP quickly. Your mother should be able to apply for a clinical trial quota in such a bad situation."

"Great, great, I'll apply right away." Sun Xiaoling said excitedly.

"If you pass it, bring your mother over as soon as possible. The sooner you are cured, the sooner you will be relieved."

"Yes, yes, definitely!"

Sun Xiaoling hung up the phone in surprise and joy, and immediately lifted her spirits.

Quickly helped the old mother to the bathroom, washed it well, and started cleaning the living room again.

After finally cleaning everything up, she stood in the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror.

At first glance, I hardly recognize myself.

With a black and haggard face, dry and dull hair, and gray eyes, it seemed that he had experienced some serious torture.

She was completely different from her original self.

Before her mother got sick, her skin was delicate, her hair was black and shiny, and she was in a good state of mind. She felt positive, vigorous and full of vigor, and always had a bright smile.

But now, the whole person is like a walking corpse that has been drained of essence and blood, in a daze, completely losing all energy and energy.

Sun Xiaoling touched her rough and dry face with her hands, remembering Dr. Zheng's notice.

His dull eyes finally brightened up.

Soon, she applied for a clinical position.

The next day, I took my mother to the hospital and saw Dr. Zheng in the Department of Neurology.

Sign the agreement and complete a series of inspections.

Dr. Zheng frowned as he looked at the examination report in his hand.

"Your mother's condition is more serious than I imagined. In her case, many family members have been sent directly to nursing homes. It's really filial for you to take care of her at home all the time."

He glanced at Sun Xiaoling appreciatively, pondered for a moment and said: "Although the amyloid deposits have been removed from the damaged part of the brain, the damage is still serious, and the patient is also old. Generally speaking, we are helpless to deal with such a situation." , fortunately with new drugs, anything is possible.”

Sun Xiaoling smiled wryly and said, "Actually, as long as my mother improves a little bit and regains her sanity, I will be satisfied."

"Should be, you have to have confidence in Sanqing's medicine." Dr. Zheng handed over the pills: "Let's start."

Sun Xiaoling took the pill and coaxed her mother to eat it like a child candy.

Seeing my mother licking her mouth and giggling after eating, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"I hope this medicine is really effective. God bless, so that our mother and daughter can be relieved from the pain."

She prayed secretly, placing great hopes on this new medicine.

Only those who are driven to a dead end can understand that for the greatest suffering in life, even a little bit of hope is the most precious light in the darkness, guiding her to move on.

In the next few days, Dr. Zheng carefully administered the medication while monitoring the patient's condition and making dosage adjustments at any time.

A week later, Dr. Zheng carefully compared the two brain MRI images in his hand, and said with a look of surprise.

"In this film taken last week, it can be clearly seen from the image that the brain lobe atrophy of severe AD patients is very obvious. Among them, the temporal lobe and hippocampus atrophy are more obvious, and other parts also have a certain degree of atrophy. "

"But in the film just taken this week, the atrophy of the hippocampus is not so obvious."

"Of course, the time is still short, and you may not be able to see it very clearly, but this is good news. It proves that the medicine is indeed effective. As long as you continue to take it, it will definitely alleviate the condition."

Dr. Zheng looked at Sun Xiaoling excitedly: "How is your mother? Has it gotten better?"

Sun Xiaoling fell into deep thought, and said somewhat uncertainly, "It seems that she didn't paint the walls with dung this week. But she didn't do this every week before, so I'm not sure."

"Then go ahead. I can tell you clearly that it does work."

Sun Xiaoling immediately became excited: "That's great, my mother's condition is relatively serious, and it may take a month to get some effect."

Two weeks later, Sun Xiaoling excitedly found Dr. Zheng.

"My mother hasn't gone crazy for the past two weeks, and I can finally sleep peacefully, and my personality has become much more normal, and I don't urinate indiscriminately anymore."

"This medicine has really helped me a lot. Even if there is no progress in the follow-up, I am satisfied if I can maintain the status quo."

Dr. Zheng smiled slightly: "Don't worry, didn't you say last time you take it for a month and see again."

Sun Xiaoling blushed and nodded repeatedly.

"Well, after a month, my mother will probably remember me."

"It's hard to say, because new brain neurons grow out, and it's hard to keep old memories. I can only show her more photos and videos of the past, and take her to some places she frequents, in order to be effective. Forge new memories."

"I understand, even if she doesn't remember that I'm her daughter, as long as I'm always by her side, she'll know that I'm her daughter."

"That's right, that's the truth." Dr. Zheng nodded approvingly.

A month later, Sun Xiaoling was pleasantly surprised to find that her mother could already remember herself, and she could find her way back when she went out. Although she couldn't remember more complicated things, it was not a problem for the elderly who had someone to take care of her. .

His personality has largely returned to normal. Although he is not as gentle and enthusiastic as before, he is no longer irritable, and he no longer beats and scolds people frequently.

Sun Xiaoling couldn't help weeping with joy. Such a mother looked much more friendly and no longer a stranger. Taking care of her was no longer a painful torture, but a warm relationship between mother and daughter.

Sanqing's new brain nerve regeneration drug saved her from the abyss of pain.

As long as you continue to eat for a period of time, a complete recovery is just around the corner.

The other patients who participated in the first phase of the clinical trial were not bad, and their condition improved greatly.

At this moment, the neurology office.

A group of doctors gathered in a circle, whispering and discussing.

There are rows of MRI images hanging in front of my eyes, which are the results of weekly routine examinations of patients taking medicine.

In the latest picture, new brain tissue has grown in the temporal lobe and hippocampus, and the atrophy of the brain lobe has disappeared and become less obvious.

Dr. Zheng and his colleagues in the Department of Neuromechanics were shocked when they saw the brain films of each patient.

After a long time, a voice tremblingly said: "There is such an obvious effect in a month, it is, it is..."

He hesitated for a long time, but did not say the following words.

Another doctor exclaimed: "Thousands of words converge into one sentence: Sanqing is awesome!"

The other doctors said one after another: "I think so too."

"I feel so too!"

"I feel so too!"

Dr. Zheng coughed lightly and said, "What are you waiting for? Get ready to write a clinical paper."

"When the patient fully recovers, this result will surely shock the whole world."
