Medical center.
Emergency.
"Dr. Duncan, there is a five-year-old child with a heart problem. He is in the No. 1 Clinic."
The nurse greeted Adam when he saw Adam coming in.
"Okay, I see."
Adam walked quickly over.
A little girl of African descent, lying there, had trouble breathing.
"The aorta is narrowed, sudden severe breathing difficulties, respiratory rate 40, blood pressure 180/100, tachycardia, mid-systolic murmur."
As Adam checked, he said, "Give her 20 milligrams of furosemide."
"Yes, doctor."
The nurse gave the little girl a diuretic injection quickly.
"What's her name?"
Adam asked.
"Carissa."
The nurse replied.
"Hi, Karissa, this is Dr. Duncan."
Adam leaned over to look at the little girl who looked a little confused, and said warmly: "Have you encountered anything that shouldn't be touched, or ate something that shouldn't be eaten?"
Karissa shook her head hard.
"Has her family come?"
Adam looked up and asked the nurse.
"Her father and sister are coming."
The nurse replied.
"Doctors!"
Another nurse reminded: "Her heart rate has changed."
"Ventricular tachycardia."
Adam looked at the monitor and frowned: "20 mg lidocaine, intravenous bolus."
"Yes, doctor."
The nurse responded immediately.
"Have you got her medical record?"
Adam asked.
"Searching the database."
The nurse replied.
"Doctor, she has a fever."
The nurse reminded.
"Immediately give her gastric lavage and prepare for lavage."
Adam ordered: "Then give her a toxicology test."
"Is she poisoned?"
The nurse was surprised.
"Ok."
Adam nodded: "Let the lab check as soon as possible to see what she has eaten."
"Yes, doctor."
The nurse agreed, and took the blood of Karissa expertly, and then took the blood sample to the laboratory for a toxicology test.
After Adam gave Kalissa gastric lavage, her fever, ventricular arrhythmia, high blood pressure, anxiety and other symptoms of poisoning were all relieved.
Over the laboratory.
Because it was Adam’s name, it was urgently processed, and a toxicology inspection report was soon sent.
"damn it!"
Adam took it over and took a look, and couldn't help cursing.
The nurse also showed an angry expression.
However, the results of the examination showed that the five-year-old Kalissa had an overdose of cocaine.
This is a strong calf!
She is only five years old!
"Dr. Duncan, do I need to notify the Children and Family Services Agency?"
The nurse asked.
"Ok."
Adam nodded.
In the United States, wherever children are harmed? Whether it is intentional or unintentional? It will attract investigations from child protection organizations.
Hospitals and doctors, as long as they find it, they should also report it in accordance with the procedures.
"Doctor Duncan? Kalissa's family is here."
The nurse reminded.
"Let them wait."
Adam continued to treat Karissa.
Now that the cause of the disease has been figured out, just prescribe the right medicine? Don't rush to ask the family member Karissa's past medical history.
Wait until the child and family service agency sends someone over.
Adam came forward with each other again.
Children and family service agencies are coming soon.
Is a middle-aged woman of African descent.
"Ms. McGillis, this is the situation."
Adam introduced Kalissa's condition: "The family is in the waiting area."
"Let's go over and take a look."
Ms. McGillis said with a heavy face.
"it is good."
Adam nodded? Take her to the waiting area for the family.
A sturdy middle-aged African-American man? Sitting there anxiously, a teenage African-American girl leaning on his shoulders, with headphones on his ears and eyes closed.
"Mr. Freeman."
The nurse stepped forward? Called.
"How is my daughter?"
Mr. Freeman leaned the African-American **** a chair? He stood up and asked anxiously.
"She's okay."
Adam nodded to him.
"Thank God."
Mr. Freeman raised his hands high, thanked God first, then walked over and reached out to shake hands with Adam: "Thank you? Doctor! I want to see her now!"
"Don't hurry."
Adam introduced: "This is Ms. McGillis from the Children and Family Services Agency. She has something to tell you."
"Your legal name and address?"
Ms. McGillis asked blankly.
"what?"
The smile on Mr. Freeman’s face immediately froze there? He looked at Adam, and then at the seat he was already sitting on. Ms. McGillis, who was posing a serious questioning posture, asked suspiciously: "What happened? ?"
He is not stupid.
This is obviously not a good sign.
"Please tell me? Your legal name and address!"
Ms. McGillis repeated her request blankly.
This time? Not a request? But a request!
"Where is Karissa? I want to see her, now!"
Mr. Freeman said irritably.
"Your five-year-old daughter had an overdose of cocaine."
Adam reminded.
Mr. Freeman was taken aback for a moment, then turned around, put his hands on the counter, and shook his head.
Obviously he understood it all.
"Tim Morgan Freeman, address..."
After a while, Mr. Freeman calmed down, turned around, faced Ms. McGillis, and reported his message.
"I didn't do it. I don't know where Karissa got the cocaine."
"Ok."
Ms. McGillis closed the record sheet and nodded: "Our children and family service agency will conduct door-to-door tracking..."
"This is over?"
The nurse did not dare to say: "He has committed the crime of endangering children!"
"Mr. Freeman is a middle class, has his own job, has his own house."
Ms. McGillis explained: "I still have many families living in the car... I trust Mr. Freeman, and we will follow up."
Adam knew it.
This situation is too common in the United States.
The general environment that cannot be controlled by the source remains unchanged, and it is impossible to manage it by a few staff members of these institutions.
Otherwise, Adam will pass through the meeting, and there will be no jaw-dropping operation of direct publicizing and innocence.
The logic here is that if you can't manage it, just let it go.
The formalization of the government and the marketization not only saves the huge amount of finance consumed by the anti-independence program each year, but also makes a large part of the criminals' daily income.
The pros and cons are all money that can't be counted!
‘What a genius’ who came up with this method.
This move was supported by the vast majority of Americans.
People from Xitou naturally raised their hands in favor, and no longer had to hide.
The police do not have to risk firing to stop the criminals and the people of the drug.
Taxpayers finally don't have to spend their own taxes on such bad things. Anyway, they don't need to **** it, and it doesn't matter whether they **** it or not.
Emmm.
Everyone is happy.
It’s just that in such a big environment like Karissa, children who have no self-control and are curious about everything, because it is easier to get in touch with calves, eat by mistake or try it with friends The odds will skyrocket.
It's the same as when Asia was a child when he was a child, and with his friends, he stole an adult's cigarette and learned how to smoke an adult.
After being choked for a few bites, Adam threw it away, and did not smoke when he grew up.
But the rest of the friends, many of them are enjoying the "good things" of adults, and when they grow up, most of them don't leave the cigarette.
This is true of cigarettes.
Not to mention a calf that is countless times more addictive.
At that time, those middle-upper class who only want to not smoke and don't want to waste their taxes will probably find it painful to find that they can control themselves but not their children.
In the legend, I can't believe that the country where I have died because of the evil and the poison, maybe it will become the same, and rebirth from the shell.
The world is so mysterious, it can't be so.
