Since We Parted

I particularly like this work and wrote some thoughts on it. This was the first time I read a novel with this theme, and I was deeply shocked. Everything from the plot to the characterization is very delicate, and the psychological activities are so vivid that it feels like they are really talking in my ears. The plot in the second half seems to be a similar cycle, coupled with the passage of time in the title. If you think about it carefully, this is their daily life. It may be boring or painful, but it is a process they must go through. Maybe because the protagonists have money and leisure, sometimes people feel far away, but the excellent writing brings the distance very close. It is a great work. I have heard of the name for a long time, but never watched it. I accidentally remembered it last night and saw it was about two o'clock when I opened it. Today, when the sun was shining brightly, I saw nightfall coming. I cried twice in the first ten chapters. The follow-up was okay, but I was still brought to tears a few times. I have a congenital deformity in one section of my spine, and I have some problems with all my bones, but miraculously, I didn't discover it by chance until a physical examination in junior high school. Later, I experienced misdiagnosis and suffered for a year before I was finally told that it couldn't be cured and surgery couldn't be done. It wasn't worth having to go under the knife all over the body. After the growth stopped, the pain would stop. All in all, it's not a little bit better than Xiao Gu's situation, but the description of her body and mind still makes me empathize so much. I remember the years when my puberty was the fastest, and I couldn't sleep because of the pain in my back every night. I remember when the pain was so severe that I couldn't walk and had to lie in bed, and I was afraid that I would never stand up. I remember my mother also said something like that to me: It's all my mother's fault for giving birth to you. I made you suffer so much and didn't give you a good health; I remember that I was scolded by my father because I didn't want to do physical therapy because I was tired, and then we had a big fight; I remember when the doctor told me that I couldn't do strenuous exercise, bear weight, or sit or stand for a long time, I asked, do I have to lie down all the time? He said that it would be best if I could... Although I am much luckier than her and it no longer affects my life, I understand the feeling of powerlessness and self-loathing all too well. So when I saw a similar plot and her pain, I was really sad. I once again lamented how the author and teacher could write so well and so realistically. I also admire Xiao Shen's strength and love. In fact, it's hard for me to imagine that a person would do this because of love. Positive and attentive, she dedicates herself to her lover without losing herself. What touches me the most is that she is very good at empathizing with others. Although no one can empathize with her, she will do everything possible to get close to her lover's thoughts and guide her to express her true feelings. How can she not be considered a great guiding lover? Under such circumstances, having someone like Xiao Shen around is really a great comfort and happiness. She is good at praising and affirming, building up Xiao Gu's confidence little by little; she is thoughtful but not overly sensitive, giving Xiao Gu a chance to breathe. I am stupid and may not express myself clearly, but as far as I am concerned, if I had such a family member by my side at the time, it would not have been so difficult. And I also want to be such a person, with the ability and courage to love like this. Finally, I remembered an essay I wrote in high school, which was probably about the length and breadth of life. In my understanding, quality is more important than length. Life is only 30,000 days at most. It is a lucky thing to have a like-minded person and a cute puppy by your side. I wish you both peace and happiness every day [Rainbow Fart]

The writing is quite good. I like this story very much. I haven't seen a work with such complete medical settings for a long time. Xiao Gu is really a very standard c6 quadriplegic (probably c6). When I first watched it, I wondered why Xiao Gu insisted on using a folding lightweight wheelchair. It would be much more comfortable to sit in a different wheelchair for a long time. But later I saw that it was because I didn't want to use a heavy-duty rehabilitation wheelchair. At first, I was thinking that if Xiao Gu was so rich, why wouldn't he move it with a sky rail? But later I saw that it had been installed anyway. The author really gave Xiao Gu a complete set of sequelae. I was dumbfounded and thought that what the author wrote was too good for my taste. Many novels start with a car accident, unable to stand up, and sitting in a wheelchair. After ten chapters, all that is left is "she is in a wheelchair and falling in love." This is not the case at all. The things brought about by the car accident are throughout the whole story, and Xiao Gu's body is part of the plot. Xiao Gu has been facing what a high complete cervical spinal cord injury will really bring: neurogenic bladder, suprapubic fistula, neurogenic bowel, spasticity, sensory loss, burn risk, orthostatic hypotension, pressure injury risk, pain, breathing and expectoration, hand function, sitting posture, transfer, prosthetics, long-term bone and joint changes, and even the sky rail system at the end. And the author is obviously writing in detail those less decent plots, which I really like, very, very delicious. But when it comes to career, finances and love, it is obvious that he has begun to soften his heart. Xiao Gu retained his ability, professional value, financial conditions, and close relationships, and finally had sufficient assistive equipment and a caring environment. At the end, it is also very, very good that there was no medical miracle. The paralysis in the car accident was not a one-time event, but brought about another kind of physical order. After many years of recovery after the car accident, Xiao Gu is still paralyzed and her body continues to undergo chronic changes. She has only gained more proficiency in assistive technology, better living arrangements, and the ability to accept help. What Xiao Gu finally got was not a healed body, but a body and soul that could continue to live. [Orange candy] Got it [Purple candy] kswl

After reading it, I also begged. C6 epidural electrical stimulation can help you recover better. You can have strength in your upper arm. Please let Teacher Gu feel better.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

It's so beautiful, but I never stopped crying🥺

It's great, I've played it three times, and I've been waiting for the new episode to come out [crying] [crying] [crying]

It hurts so much. After reading it, I feel that my hearing impairment is not even a problem. As long as I wear a Bluetooth headset, more than 80% of the problems can be solved [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying]

This novel is also so good. The author, the teacher, described various details about Sister Gu's illness and hospitalization. As a medical worker, the descriptions were real pictures in my mind, and I became more sympathetic to Xiao Gu's pain, which made me cry to death. When I had my second gastrointestinal episode, I really had a harder time than Xiao Gu. It was really painful, including all the rehabilitation exercises after being discharged from the ICU, and I had to start over again. I was afraid that Teacher Gu would not make it through, but luckily Teacher Gu made it through! But it's really not possible to remove the ventilator tube by yourself! ! ! And when Xiao Gu fell down and sucked phlegm, it was so painful for the two little bitter gourds. One didn't want the other to see him in distress, and the other was heartbroken to see the other go through all this. Made me cry to death. I can also understand that Xiao Gu doesn't want Xiao Shen to see his sick side. In the face of illness, he has to stand aside in everything. I'm so glad the two of them survived. Long live you two! Be happy! Be safe and healthy! Don't get sick again! [Red heart][red heart][red heart]

Teacher, have you thought about the next book? Consider putting it in advance🥹
