As the saying goes, blessings don’t come in pairs and disasters don’t come in singles. Speaking of Zhao’s misfortune, Zhao’s mother could not help but shed tears of sadness: the child has suffered from congenital cataract disease since childhood, for the child’s treatment, ran countless hospitals, but also spent a lot of family savings, only to finally preserve the only bit of vision. Because of the eye disability, considering the future life, after graduating from junior high school, the family sent him to a massage school to study. Where the child studied very hard, the results are very good. After graduation, he soon found a job. The child can support himself, the parents finally smiled with relief.

But the good times did not last long. Shortly after joining the workforce, Xiao Zhao was dismissed. The reason is that customers are reflecting that his hands sweat too much, not let him massage. Just full of hope for the future life of Xiao Zhao, was this relentless reality at once crushed, parents also secretly weeping …….
This is not a way to go on. Never bow to fate, the family of three traveled around, west to Xi’an, south to Nanjing, consulted numerous large hospitals, ate Western medicine, drink soup, still no effect. When the family was at a loss, Xiao Zhao proposed to come to Henan Provincial Chest Hospital for thoracoscopic surgery, and his decision made his parents doubtful.
It turns out that although Xiao Zhao has defective eyesight, he is a very smart and calculating young man. He is computer literate and knows how to surf the Internet, and often searches the Internet for information about the disease he has. He told his parents that he was suffering from “hand sweating”. This disease is not serious, but it can affect people’s interactions and work. Especially when the mental tension is excessive, both hands hang down, you can see sweat dripping down. What’s more, some young people can’t find a date because of this.
Xiao Zhao also communicated with many patients on the Internet to talk about their experiences, to cure this disease, eating Western medicine, Chinese medicine, including infusions can not solve the fundamental problem, only to do surgery. And, now there is a minimally invasive surgery – television thoracoscopic surgery, you can avoid the previous major surgery to open the chest, broken ribs, as long as the chest wall on both sides of the two less than 1cm small hole can be eradicated “hand sweat”.
Finally, one day, accompanied by his parents, Xiao Zhao came to the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Henan Provincial Chest Hospital. After thorough preparation, the director of thoracic surgery, Qian Rulin, was personally in charge of the surgery. Incredibly, after only two or three minutes, Director Qian let a traveling nurse feel the palm of Zhao’s hand on this side of the surgery to see if it had dried up. The nurse said, indeed, no sweat at all, but also relatively dry. In a short time, the other side of the surgery was also successfully completed. That’s what it’s all about, immediate results!
From admission to discharge in only 5 days, looking at his hands, which used to be sweaty and wet and cold, now became as dry and warm as normal people, Xiao Zhao could not believe that they were his own hands. He was grateful for the modern medical technology – thoracoscopic surgery, which re-lit his life path.
