Medical Return - 145 145. Successful life. Looking to the end (3)

“… How are you? ”

“… yes. ”

Kim Gangmin nods as he looks down at the sea.

Apparently he’s doing well.

I lost weight, turned into a handsome man, and most of all, a house full of eyes. It’s gone.

Dada.

The helicopter splits the Indian Ocean in a spiral like silk. The dusk of sunset watered the sea with golden light.

“We’re all here. Well done!”

When I landed on the platform, my hair fluttered in the sea breeze for a dazzling evening.

“You’re going into the hotel room, right? ”

“Uh, your girlfriend will be waiting. ”

The woman I was with was her boyfriend.

Jinhyun nodded.

“Yes, well done today. Thank you. Rest well. ”

It was a warm and tiresome breakup, but it was a passing connection anyway.

At the end of this trip, I will never see him again.

“Come on, Hye-mi. ”

“Yes, I want to go in and rest. ”

Then he went to the hotel room, and a strange cry caught him.

“Wait, Kim Jin-hyun! ”

It was Kang Min Kim.

Turning his head, he had an awkward expression.

“Huh…? ”

“Then… I’m sorry. ”

“ ……! ”

Jinhyun’s eyes widened.

Kim Gangmin hesitated to speak.

“I was a lot younger then. I’m so sorry. I wanted to talk to you about this once… Now is the time. ”

There was a calm smile on Jinhyun’s face.

Kim Gangmin apologizes for the incident he caused in Bon and first grade.

It was an ugly thing to do, but it’s been a decade.

In the meantime, this one has changed a lot, just like the story of the strong mountains.

“It’s okay. It’s already 10 years ago. ”

Kim Gangmin also looked at Hyemi.

“Comedy, I’m sorry to hear that. ”

“Ah, ah. Yes.”

Kim Kang-min scratched his head.

“Since then, I’ve been thinking a lot about it. I was sorry then. ”

After a completely different look, Jinhaen felt good warmth.

It is also a meaningful encounter to reunite in this connection over a decade.

But why?

At that moment, Jinhyun recalled a person.

Anonymous.

Old friends, evil deeds, unforgivable sinners.

Could he have changed, too?

It’s a meaningless story. ’

Jinhyun shook his head.

He’ll never see you again anyway.

He will pay for the sins he committed for the rest of his life and now he can live his own life.

Then Kim Gangmin said.

“Oh, I chose a surgeon, too. I’m a resident at a Korean hospital. ”

That was amazing.

I thought you were going to follow my father, who’s a dermatologist.

“Why do you do surgery? ”

“After graduating from medical school, I came to study… I saw a medical documentary program in Korea. The doctor who was the protagonist was so cool that he decided to do the surgery. But do you know who the surgeon was? ”

“I don’t know?”

Jinhyun nodded.

Dr. Good, are these the same two programs? I’m a surgeon. There are so many wonderful people.

However, Kim Gangmin told the most amazing story.

“It’s you, Kim Jin-hyun. ”

“… what? ”

“It was a program that broadcast you. It was the same motive, but unlike me, I decided to be a surgeon when I saw you living for a patient. ”

Jinhyun opened his mouth.

What kind of crazy story is this?

Kim Gangmin smiled and reached out his hand.

It was a handshake application.

Jinhyun shook his hand.

“Anyway, it was nice to meet you. I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again… but I’ll see you when I get a chance. ”

“… yes. ”

“I’ll be a surgeon like you someday. ”

Jin Hyeon looked embarrassed by the strange story.

Why has he changed so much?

Can a person change like this?

A few days later, the honeymoon of Hye-mi and Jinhyun ended.

They settled in the United States as couples, and time passed again.

* * *

Jinhyun is a professor at St. Joseph’s, and Hye-mi began her honeymoon as an international student.

His life could then be summarized in a word:

A successful life.

As a Surgeon, as an Academic physician, it was the best life ever.

Every year, every two years, his fame soars without knowing how high heaven is.

If he was just a former American medical emerging divine, super-Lukie, five years later he became a true American… No, he was also a world treasure.

Of course, it was not without difficulty.

No matter how talented you are, why is there no timing and jealousy in the victory of the young Orientals?

But Jin Hyeon beat it all.

In the mid-30s, he became the most accomplished medical practitioner in the past five years, and Master surgeon, a hopeful patient with difficult, refractory liver cancer.

Oh, of course, there was a gobi that was hard to bear.

It was the birth of a comedy who had a child two years after marriage.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

St. Joseph’s Hospital, a prestigious hospital in the United States.

Despite the best gynecologists running, both the child and the mother were having a hard time assuring a life.

‘Please…..! ’

Outside the delivery field, Jinhyun earnestly prayed with both hands together.

What’s the best surgeon in the world?

I can’t help you when the one you love most is urgent.

I felt all the success in between.

Fourth angle.

A few hours later, the door of the delivery was opened.

The head professor of white hair gynaecology approached Jinhyun.

I didn’t see a look beyond the mask.

“Uh, what do you think? ”

The eye line of the gynecologist was drawn.

“It’s all good. It was hard, but I was born healthy. She needs to be treated for a while because she’s bleeding so much, but it won’t be a big deal. ”

“Ah…! Thank you so much! Thank you so much! ”

Jinhyun bowed his head.

I rushed inside and there was a little boy crying as if he were going to break.

“Honey, it’s our baby. ”

Comedy smiled with a pale face.

Jinhyun held her hand.

“Yeah, it’s our baby. Well done, really. ”

Feeling his hand, he closed his eyes.

“Let’s raise it well. Happily.”

Jinhyun nodded.

“Yes, absolutely. ”

He was a golden son because he had difficulty giving birth.

Thereafter, the days of tranquility and happiness were followed.

As more years passed, the child began to take off his steps, talk, and mock, Jinhyeon faced the electricity that would engulf his medical achievements.

“Dr. Kim, can you take a look at this? ”

Gentle, David said to Jin-hyun, a middle-aged man whose head was now starting to whiten.

“What’s going on? ”

“There’s a consultant from the Division of Infectious Diseases, and it’s a little strange. ”

David then explained.

“I’m treating Fever of unknown origin, and I have severe bowel obstruction. Liver levels are oddly high… platelets are low… something is strange. ”

Next to the surgeon, among others, Professor Robert, a specialist in colony surgery, said:

“I don’t think I need to make an urgent surgical correction because of the high likelihood of intestinal obstruction with fever… something’s wrong. ”

Jin Hyun pondered at the words.

‘Fever, intestinal obstruction……. ’

Nothing special so far.

It was common for high fever to cause bowel failure and obstruction.

“But why are liver levels and platelets so bad? Is it a severe viral infection? ’

I was amazed by Jinhyun who had thought about it.

‘Stay still. I think it’s time…. ’

“Do you have any travel history for your patient? ”

“Travel power?”

“So whether you visited Africa recently……. ”

David clapped his hands.

“Ah! This patient, he’s a South African president. Why do you ask that? ”

“ ……! ”

Jinhyun’s face darkened.

South Africa.

I feel worse and worse.

‘No way, right? It’s not that time yet. ’

One word came to mind in his head.

Tenofovirus.

In his early forties, SARS, avian flu, and novel flu were the epidemics that terrorized the world.

‘South Africa. There’s a possibility of a tenofovirus. ’

Tenofovirus is a disease that causes an unknown fever and intestinal obstruction, causing intestinal decay and death.

It is a disease that has remained in the lymphatic glands of animals, Springbok, mainly in South Africa, rarely causing human infections, and was only cured by endemic diseases in South Africa until a few years later, when RNA mutations acquired human liver transmission.

Similar to the SARS in the past. SARS is also a pandemic due to human infection with the coronavirus that lives in Guangdong Township, China. ’

It was controversial whether the host of the SARS coronavirus was a sarcophagus cat or a bat, but some medical epidemiologists thought the sarcophagus cat was the host.

After a chef who cooks a sardine cat was infected with SARS, a Gwangdong physician who treated the patient participated in a conference in Hong Kong.

It is a hypothesis that group guests staying in the same hotel at the time spread throughout the world after being infected.

Of course, it is not clear whether this patient’s symptoms are caused by the Tenofovirus.

I still needed to check.

“This patient may need to check for infection with South Africa’s disease, the Tenofovirus. ”

“Tenofovirus? ”

David and Robert looked suspicious.

Absolutely.

Because the Tenofovirus is not yet a microbial specialty, among them a prominent virologist, but a disease that I’ve never heard of.

It was only a year ago that Dr. Wesley published a paper that identified the presence of the virus, right? ’

Dr. Wesley of Harvard is a Nobel laureate in physiology after a major epidemic that has proven the presence of the Tenofo virus.

“The Tenofovirus……. ”

Jinhyun explained the similarities between the patient’s symptoms and the Tenofovirus.

The doctors of St. Joseph listened with a serious face.

“Hmm… It’s a rare disease… but I need to check it out because I have Fever of Unknown Origin that can’t keep causing fever. As Dr. Kim said, I have enough doubts. ”

To be honest, I may have ignored this argument if someone else had done so.

It is a rare disease that I have never heard of.

However, it was the opinion of a world-recognized leader, not anyone else.

“What tests do I need to check? ”

“RNA after blood collection (Ribonucleic acid. ribonucleic acid. a western blot (special protein detection test), a Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test that identifies nucleic acids involved in the transfer of genetic information with DNA. Ask Dr. Wesley at Harvard for an examination. And more importantly, we need to retake the CT not later to see if the bowel necrosis proceeds. ”

Jinhyun’s opinion was accepted as such.

The next day, when CT was taken, the colon was found to be really rotten and extensive bowel resection was performed, and the patient was barely able to recover after a few lapses.
