My best friend’s father spent 600,000 yuan in the ICU and died of illness: The fastest way to destroy a person is to lose a loved one
"No way, my aunt is missing. Then go out and look for her right away?"
At 10 o'clock in the evening, my best friend sent me a WeChat message saying that my aunt (her mother) was missing, but she didn't reply to her WeChat message. I didn't answer the phone, and I couldn't find it after searching for more than half an hour.
She said that not long ago, she and her brother got angry and went out. When she came back, her aunt was not in the house, and neither her brother nor her husband knew where she had gone.
I pray in my heart that my aunt will never do anything stupid. I may not be able to recover from my husband’s death. The two of us have been together for decades, and suddenly we are alone. I feel like my life is like this. , but after all, he still has a pair of children.
Yesterday afternoon, my best friend told me that she felt like her heart was going to explode. I comforted her that she had to endure it for the next few days and to keep an eye on her aunt. She said at the time that her aunt was in a trance, and she was going to bed every day before and after. They are all crying, but otherwise they look normal.
My best friend’s father (uncle) and aunt originally opened a fast food restaurant in Zhongshan. A few days before the Chinese New Year, my uncle suddenly fainted while cutting vegetables. It was said that he was bleeding from both layers of the heart artery, and his heart was three times the size of the first stroke. He was admitted to the ICU for observation immediately after the operation. The doctor said at the time that the operation was normal, but he never woke up. The doctor said that he would observe his physical parameters before performing a second operation. It was delayed for almost a month. moon.
That’s how fast ICU burns money. It’s more than 10,000 yuan a day. My aunt changed hands of the fast food restaurant, and my best friend took out all the savings accumulated from work and the dowry from last year’s wedding, as well as the New Year celebrations. Wuyou quickly raised tens of thousands of dollars, but when the cost reached 600,000, her best friend, aunt, and brother couldn't bear it anymore. If she wanted to continue, she could only lend money to her uncle to extend his life.
Just a few days ago, they received a notice from the hospital saying that their uncle was dying in the ICU. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief. Their relatives no longer had to worry about borrowing money to continue living in the ICU. Uncle was gone. He was still peaceful. Although he didn't wake up, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.
After going to the hospital to settle the bill, my best friend finally seemed relieved. After being reimbursed 50%, she still had to pay about 400,000. The aunt and her brother did not calculate the expenses in the hospital during this period, but later At least RMB 100,000 was needed to prepare for the matter. The uncle asked them at the hospital whether they wanted to stay in the ICU or go home. They chose the former.
I have been keeping vigil at the funeral home for the past two days, but some relatives in her family, especially her uncle, dislike them for not handling this matter well. They say that uncle has worked hard for his whole life and must handle this last step well. A relative also said that her family should choose a big hotel to set up a few tables and ask a good Feng Shui master to take a good look at Feng Shui. Everything here in Guangdong pays attention to Feng Shui, especially in the Chaoshan area.
When my best friend heard them moaning non-stop, she just said, but none of the relatives had the initiative to take action. They had already spent so much money, how could they afford to have a high-level funeral? Those so-called relatives' things have never happened to me, but she always points fingers at others. My best friend is a somewhat willful person, and she is extremely annoyed by these things.
Every time I ask her to do something for her brother or husband, after all, she is a married daughter, but her brother has just graduated a year ago and doesn’t understand many things and can’t do them. Recently, I suddenly fell down on the ground and cried; my aunt came to her for everything, and her husband was also a person who didn't care about anything. He couldn't see anything in his eyes and he had to do something only after she told him to do it.
For example, other relatives came to the uncle's funeral hall. Without her, they wouldn't even know how to wash a cup and make a cup of tea. There were many things that my aunt had to do because she was not in good spirits. Many relatives just fanned the flames without taking any actual action.
Another thing that froze her yesterday afternoon was that her mother-in-law from Dongguan actually returned to her hometown! In order to take care of her uncle's funeral, her best friend and her husband went to Zhongshan. Their 8-month-old daughter had to be temporarily taken back to Dongguan by her father-in-law. No matter how much her mother-in-law favored sons over daughters, she should still be there. Can you help take care of your own granddaughter at this juncture? It’s amazing for a mother-in-law from Guangdong to be able to do this!
No mother-in-law in rural areas can do this. Even if she no longer wants to see her daughter-in-law, she will still worry that she will be unable to move when she is old and will have to rely on her daughter-in-law to help. After all, the daughter is married off. !
Her mother-in-law gave her 2,000 yuan a month for living expenses just because she had a daughter who was capable. She also said that all the expenses for her sightseeing trips were covered, so she went back to her hometown to be cool these days!
And her sister-in-law (mother-in-law’s daughter) is not a fuel-efficient lamp. When her best friend gave birth to a baby, she asked her mother-in-law to take care of her, so she encouraged her mother to enjoy her old life. The problems of young people made her The young man went to solve the problem, and her best friend came to argue with her. She also laughed at them because they couldn't afford a nanny so they shouldn't have a baby!
The sum of these things can really upset a middle-aged woman. When eating at around 18 o'clock, she saw that her brother couldn't even serve himself a meal and asked his aunt to help him, so she She couldn't help but lost her temper and ran out. At that time, I asked her to find a quiet place and have a good cry!
Fortunately, the aunt listened to the call from her cousin and uncle saying that she had no expectations for life anymore, and then she found out that she had gone to the river. The uncle told her to go back, and her best friend and the others went At that time, I found that she was still looking at her own shadow by the river in a daze and crying. Her best friend said that it was all her fault and that it irritated her aunt. She was just too tired and couldn't bear it and ran out!
My best friend used to work at my last company, but this incident made her have no intention to go to work at all. She immediately sent a message to her boss saying that she was resigning! I especially emphasized to her that we must take care of auntie's emotions. Even if I can't help but lose my temper, I can't face her. Uncle's funeral will only be done in a day or two. After that, I can take auntie with me for 8 months. My eldest daughter, no matter how sad the old man is, he will always see hope when he sees his little baby by his side!
I think my best friend has to worry about her own livelihood after resigning. Her husband is also an ordinary working class in Shenzhen. Her brother also resigned due to this matter not long after he started working. After losing his father, she found more and more I can only be the backbone of my family, although she has never told me that she just wants to be a little woman with a safe haven. Thinking of her, I found that I couldn't hold back tears!
