Some patients developed the disease quickly. Some were treated with precision, which could delay it longer. It was also why Old Master Parker could not stand up to greet Sean and Leonard when they arrived.
His legs and arms had atrophied to the point of near immobility. Due to the Parker family’s wealth, they had been treating Old Master Parker. Besides that, they used a lot of expensive imported drugs. Otherwise, Old Master Parker could only lie on the bed and even have problems speaking.
“Oh…” Hearing Leonard’s diagnosis, Andrew let out a small sigh.
The faces of the other doctors and the girl darkened.
A difficult disease like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis had virtually no cure. There was no cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in the medical industry around the world. It could only be controlled with treatments that improve body function and delay the progression of the disease.
However, even if delayed, it could not change the atrophy of the entire body muscle. You would end up living a life worse than death. It was almost like a death sentence once you had this disease. One could only wait to die.
It was the diagnosis the Parker family had received after traveling from hospital to hospital with Old Master Parker.
Andrew and the rest refused to give up. They had always thought the hospital had made a wrong diagnosis, so they did not give up. However, even Leonard said Old Master Parker had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
It was like a death sentence for Old Master Parker.
For a moment, the living room was silent. The doctors, Andrew, and Old Master Parker, were a little quiet.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. There was no other way but to wait for your death. Even if the process could be slowed down, it could be painful.
“Haha! It’s okay! I’ve lived for a long time and done it all. My children and grandchildren are good to me. My family gets along with each other. I have no regrets.” After a while, Old Master Parker laughed, favonovel.com seemed to have gotten over it.
However, they could see the sadness in Old Master Parker’s eyes. After all, no one wanted to die if they could live. Besides that, favonovel.com would have to die under the torture of his illness.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis was a process where your body stiffened gradually.
He could still talk today, but favonovel.com might wake up tomorrow and not be able to swallow to eat. The human body depended on muscles all over the body. If his muscles were completely atrophied, even eating or drinking was an extravagant hope.
It was a pain that no one else could imagine.
Leonard’s face was still very calm. He had been practicing medicine for more than 30 years and had witnessed too much life and death. He had also seen a lot of complicated diseases worse than Old Master Parker’s. So, his mood was unaffected.
“Dr. Wester, is there any cure for my father’s condition? The Parker family is willing to do anything!” Anderson got up and said to Leonard.
“There’s no cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in the medical industry around the world. At least I’ve never heard of a cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,” Leonard shook his head slightly, and the other doctors agreed.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis was incurable. There was no precedent for a full recovery, except to delay the progression of the disease by medical means as much as possible.
Andrew’s heart grew heavier at this.
“Dr. Wester, just tell me how many days I have left to live. So I can arrange my affairs before I die.” Old Master Parker smiled again, looking at Leonard and saying.
“Old Master…” Andrew gritted his teeth slightly, upset.
