Chapter 346: Chapter 0329: I Have Always Loved to Show Off Since Childhood
It’s already been two weeks since Yu Shuilian’s surgery, her wound is ready to have the stitches removed.
At four-thirty in the afternoon, everyone started getting prepared to remove her stitches.
Doctors and nurses crowded around in a large circle, a few from the trauma ICU hurried over too. During this period of time, everyone had diligently treated and taken care of Yu Shuilian, and now it was time to see the results.
Someone had already taken out their phone to record this significant moment.
Yu Shuilian’s husband and son were also by her side, her husband held their son, incredibly moved.
Song Zimo, Xu Zhiliang, and Takahashi all personally participated in removing the stitches.
Song Zimo was in charge of removing the stitches while Xu Zhiliang helped with removing the dressings. Takahashi was ready to place the removed dressings in a yellow trash bag, while some standardized training students lent a hand.
Takahashi cleaned up trash on the side, putting it into a yellow trash can. Sisi’s mother wore gloves, accepting the yellow trash bag Takahashi handed over, she checked the seal and promptly cleared out the replaced dressings. In her spare time, she had joined the team caring for Yu Shuilian, helping the nurses change her clothes, bed sheets, and handle her personal hygiene needs.
If the wound healed nicely and the stitches got removed smoothly, it meant that Yu Shuilian had passed the first hurdle, and her treatment had achieved an intermediary success.
Yang Ping was also watching from the side. For a surgery he had personally performed, a life he had saved from death’s grip, he wanted to personally see the condition of the wound.
The bags for storing feces and urine had already been replaced by the nurses in advance. The urine bag was slightly filled with yellow urine, while the feces bag was clean and empty.
To celebrate the removal of the stitches, Head Nurse Cai specially ordered a flower basket and placed it by the window sill in the single room, as a symbol of celebration.
With utmost caution, Song Zimo peels off the clean dressings layer by layer, placing them in the yellow trash bag Takahashi had opened. The last layer was the vaseline gauze that was directly covering the wound.
Though everyone had seen the wound each time they replaced the dressings and knew it was healing well, showing no signs of any infection, at this moment, everyone still held their breath as if a heavy sigh could disturb the wound and lead to sudden infection.
Song Zimo used the forceps in his left hand to pick up an iodine cotton ball from the dressing tray. His right hand then takes it over, where he gently presses it onto the vaseline gauze, this helps to both sterilize and moisturize the gauze and thus, reduce the pain when the gauze is removed.
