Chapter 1005 Switch To This Acupuncture Point
At first, Roxanne thought the two of them would not be able to cope with all the work. Somehow, the
children were very cooperative. Hence, she could not tell if it was because of the gifts she had
prepared.
Both Roxanne and Jack treated the patients in an orderly fashion. Perhaps it was because the
orphanage was in a city and had better facilitiespared to the previous one.
Apart from some congenital disabilities, the children were mostly fine. As the number of children still
waiting in line gradually reduced, Roxanne, too, gradually felt more rxed.
When thest child in line entered the tent, Roxanne took out a stuffed bunny and gave it to
him. Surprised, the boy looked up and thanked her politely, “Thank you, Ms. Jarvis!” He then carefully
took the stuffed bunny from her.
Roxanne could not help but pat him on the head, beaming. Suddenly, she noticed he looked extremely
pale, and the sight of that made her heart sink. She immediately asked him in concern, “Do you
normally have any difort?”
Hearing that, the boy frowned and mulled briefly before answering with hesitance, “My heart feels
ufortable sometimes.”
His words brought a frown to Roxanne’s face, and she pressed on, “Can you tell me in detail?”
Again, the boy pondered for some time. “Sometimes, it beats really fast, but it goes back to normal
after a while.” This is a typical symptom of arrhythmia.
Roxanne shot Jack a look before instructing the boy, “Dear, could you lie on this bed? I’d like to
examine you a little.”N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
Carrying the stuffed bunny, the little boy climbed onto the bed obediently. Then, Roxanne began taking
his pulse. Meanwhile, Jack activated the machine beside them.
Not long after, their suspicion was confirmed. The boy was suffering from a severe case of
arrhythmia. However, he was very lucky that nothing major happened to him.
Thankfully, they had discovered his illness.
Before Jack could say anything, Roxanne had already brought out her acupuncture tools while
comforting the boy, “This might hurt a little. Please bear with it, okay?”
Although the boy did not know what she was going to do, the sight of the long needle frightened him a
little.
Nheless, the stuffed bunny in his arms gave him a strange sense of courage, and he nodded in
response.
Following that, Roxanne patted his head and began inserting the needles.
Acupuncture could help reduce the symptoms of arrhythmia which was something she knew long ago.
Just when she was about to insert thest needle, Jack’s voice rang out behind her.
“This point might be better.”
Roxanne halted in her movements, and she cast a confused nce at the acupuncture point Jack was
pointing at.
He smiled. “The Damaris family has done some research on this before. The acupuncture points
you’ve chosen are the mostmon points used to treat arrhythmia. But based on our research, the
treatment’s effects will be better if thest acupuncture point was switched to this.”
Surprise shed past Roxanne’s eyes.
After all, the acupuncture points Jack was referring to was rarely used in acupuncture treatments. She
could not guarantee what kind of effect it would bring if she actually inserted the needle there.
Maybe things are as Jack said. It might actually improve the boy’s condition. Then again, his condition
might also worsen.
At the same time, the boy watched them earnestly, though he did not understand their conversation.
However, he trusted them with all their heart and did not question them.
After thinking about it carefully, Roxanne looked up at Jack, whose gaze was brimming with
confidence.
Finally, Roxanne decided to follow Jack’s suggestion and insert thest needle into the other point.
