After the second meeting, "Love Together" intensively promoted Zheng Shuyi's case work.

Lin Shuang obtained Zheng Shuyi's consent and informed Xiao Jiang of the community about the old man's real needs, who immediately promised to build a solid community support network for Zheng Shuyi.

Lin Shuang held a meeting with other partners of the "Elderly Care" project team to discuss how to develop a life ability improvement plan for the elderly in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease from the perspective of social worker intervention, and recorded and compiled everyone's opinions one by one.

.

Of course, she did not forget to emphasize to Xiao Jiang and other members of the case support team that the client was temporarily unwilling to inform her son of his condition and that she would continue to do her work.

Now the problem between mother and son has become clear. Zheng Shuyi had shown her dislike and rejection of Chen Yuqiao before, not only because her son was the "big trouble" in her eyes who was unemployed and homeless, but she was also worried that if he came back to take care of her

, his mother will become a burden to him in the future.

She not only complained that she did not urge Chen Yuqiao to start a family as soon as possible, but also resented that she fell ill at such a time, which would affect her child's future and her choice of mate.

After the meeting, Lin Shuang comforted the old man and recorded what she said about Chen Yuqiao that he had never known before: In college, he went to the capital more than 2,000 kilometers away for the high school entrance examination because of his mother's concern and reluctance;

He majored in architecture but formed a band in his sophomore year; his family and friends thought he would become a star and make a lot of money after graduation, but he was busy teaching people to sing and play musical instruments in small training classes...

The son who is "rebellious" in the eyes of his mother is actually a "careful and considerate" good boy in the words of Aunt Zhen, and he is also an enthusiastic and reliable volunteer in the Haiyu community.

Lin Shuang does not think that these types of judgments are contradictory. Different standards for measuring value naturally lead to different conclusions.

In the small group of the case support team, a colleague sent a message: "What if the son doesn't want to take care of his mother after knowing it?"

Someone immediately replied: "It must be taken care of, otherwise it will violate the law on the protection of the rights and interests of the elderly."

"What if my son is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water and runs away or hides..."

Lin Shuangyi.

She knew that they made this assumption because it was not uncommon for children to abandon sick elderly people.

However, unlike her friends who may still hold the stereotype of the "three no's" youth, as an "ally" she has to trust Chen Yuqiao wholeheartedly.

Looking back on the process of forming an alliance, although she slightly criticized his "escape", she still believed that he was definitely not the "deserter" her partners assumed.

At this moment, Lin Shuang's "allies" once again came outside the inpatient department of the Seventh Hospital.

The familiar shady corner, the familiar draft, the familiar "mysterious" Aunt Zhen.

Azhen took the fruits and cakes brought by Chen Yuqiao and said: "The social worker sister came here again last time, and she had a good chat with Sister Shuyi. I have been playing the drums in the past two days, saying that since you are back

, and told me that you are willing to go on a blind date as long as she is happy, which means that you are sensible and care about her, so she should stop being angry... I guess you can meet and chat soon."

Chen Yuqiao said: "Thank you for your trouble, Aunt Zhen."

Then, he lowered his head and looked at his aunt who was a retired employee of the Seventh Hospital with Zheng Shuyi, and his eyes fell into her slightly cloudy eyes. "By the way, Aunt Zhen, my friend outside the island asked me if there are any famous people from the Seventh Hospital."

The neurologist recommended that there is an old man with dementia in her community, and his family wants to take him to the hospital on the island to have a look..."

A gust of draft whizzed past, ruffling the surface of the lake not far away, and also rippled A-Zhen's originally calm eyes.

She blinked her eyes quickly, moved her mouth, turned her head away, and glanced at the entrance of the inpatient building.

A series of reactions were carefully observed by Chen Yuqiao.

Then, Azhen said calmly: "Can Jinuchi cure Alzheimer's? I'll find someone to help you ask later."

She pushed his back and said, "It's hot in the afternoon. You go home first. I'll tell you if Sister Shuyi needs anything."

The old one and the young one each had their own thoughts and said goodbye hastily.

After finishing his insinuation of Aunt Zhen, Chen Yuqiao returned to his home in Yanshanyuan.

Wang Wangwang lay quietly, probably because it was too hot, with his chin pressed against the floor, and only a pair of dark eyes followed the busy movements of his young master.

Chen Yuqiao brought a pot of resurrected phalaenopsis to the window sill, and placed it randomly with the jacarandas and roses beside it.

Then, he picked up the photo frame on the side and leaned against the flowers.

In the framed photo, Zheng Shuyi's face is turned sideways, her head slightly raised, looking at the distant mountains and lakes.

He was ten years old at the time, and he and Zheng Shuyi went to visit his father for fun, and his father casually took this photo.

At that time, although Zheng Shuyi was already over 10 years old, her eyes still showed her innocent curiosity about the wonders of the northwest. She was like an ignorant and innocent child, cheering and making noise all the way.

Unfortunately, the brilliance on her face quickly faded.

After my father passed away, this framed photo has been placed in a prominent place at home. During this time, they moved once, and he also went from junior high school to high school and then went to Beijing to study at university. He came back after more than ten years, and he was still the same.

You can see this photo on the windowsill of the living room.

Until a few days ago when he was cleaning up the room, he found that Zheng Shuyi had put it in the bedside table. At that time, several pots of flowers at home were also half dead, and it looked very much like... She was wasting away her life.

He didn't know if Zheng Shuyi had thought of that sentence at that time - flowers will bloom again, and people will never be young again.

If Zheng Shuyi chose to commit suicide because she suffered from Alzheimer's disease and was later admitted to the Neurology Department of the Seventh Hospital, then all the mysteries during this period have been reasonably explained.

Chen Yuqiao knows his biological mother very well.

How could Comrade Zheng Shuyi, a strong, arrogant, hard-working and "motherly" outstanding medical worker, allow herself to become dull and stupid day by day, become ignorant of others, unable to take care of herself, and become a loser in the eyes of others?

Vulnerable elderly people who may suffer from dementia.

As a biological son, he was also classified by Zheng Shuyi into the camp of "others". Therefore, she hid and avoided, preferring to let him "die outside" with her disdain on his back, rather than wanting him to come back and face her illness together.

The problem of illness.

Chen Yuqiao's mood was very complicated. On the one hand, he carefully sought verification and got closer to the core of the truth step by step; on the other hand, he did not hope that this was the truth.

He suddenly thought, does Lin Shuang know the truth? After the second meeting?

Ai Xiang Gong Social Work Service Center.

Xu Yanzhe walked in with two large bags full of drinks: "Thank you for your hard work, teachers. I'll treat you to a drink!"

At around three o'clock, it was time for afternoon tea. Sanliang employees passed by the conference table and picked up ice drinks, saying "Thank you Yanzhe!"

Zhang Yangyang joked: "We just received the volunteer subsidy and are you treating us?"

"Ahem, thank you teachers for your guidance and help."

Xu Yanzhe turned around and saw "Master" still busy in front of the computer, and said diligently: "Teacher Xiao Lin, what are you drinking? I'll get it for you."

"No need." Lin Shuang stared at the screen and simply replied, "I made herbal tea."

She is busy revising the activity plan for the first phase of the "Elderly Care" project developed by Zhang Yangyang. The content of their activities was initially set to be anti-fraud propaganda, but now she wants to combine Zheng Shuyi's case with a popular science propaganda on Alzheimer's disease.

Activity.

Xu Yanzhe obediently handed over Lin Shuang's pot-bellied water glass, glanced at the Alzheimer's disease-related papers on her computer, and asked curiously: "Ah...this is what was shown on TV last time...a group of cute grandpas"

Is that what grandma’s disease is?”

What he was talking about was probably a program that called attention to Alzheimer's disease.

However, as social workers, can the service clients they face or are about to face really be described as "cute" in one word?

Lin Shuangzheng said to his young apprentice: "Yanzhe, the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease include but are not limited to cognitive impairment. As the disease progresses, in addition to amnesia and dementia, disability will also occur. You

We can learn about relevant science and think about what we can do for them if we encounter such service recipients."

"Huh?" Xu Yanzhe was shocked, "Does this also fall within the scope of social workers' services?"

"Belongs to." Lin Shuang answered simply, and kept tapping out the group activity goals and specific activity arrangements with his fingers.

The popular science lecture is just the beginning. She feels that what is more important is to join forces with the Yanshan community to establish a support group for caregivers with Alzheimer's disease.

Just as she was thinking about it, "joe" sent her a WeChat message.

"Did your second chat with Zheng Shuyi go well?"

20: "It's great! Aunt Zheng has been watching your video and shared a lot of her true feelings. In fact, she doesn't dislike you that much. She was also very touched when she heard that you wanted to go home to accompany and take care of her.

.”

20: "The new favorability buff has been dropped, please collect it [doge]"

After replying like a joke, the other end was silent for a while.

"Then do you know what illness caused her to live in the gods?"

Lin Shuang slowly stopped typing on the keyboard.

She knows, but she can't say.

"Chen Yuqiao, wait until Aunt Zheng and I set a time, and you can chat in person."

No unnecessary words, no direct answer.

After a long time, he sent a reply: "ok"

Then, no more messages were sent.

At half past five, Pei En came out from the inner office carrying his bag.

Zhang Yangyang said in a low voice as if "I've seen you for a long time": "It's strange, Mr. Supervisor, that you got off work on time."

She shrugged and smiled: "Didn't you just finish the bidding yesterday? Relax. If you have nothing to do, you can leave early."

She glanced at Lin Shuang on the other side, "How is the case? Do you need support?"

Lin Shuang didn't know that he was looking gloomy and worried, so he just said casually: "It involves the self-determination of the case owner and the principle of confidentiality (Note 1). It's a little difficult."
