The
writer has heard a moved story. There was a woman
whose family name is Zhang. She lived in Baihu Village,
Yuhuangmiao Town, Tongxu County, Kaifeng City. She
was 40 years old that year .
One year ago, she quarreled with her husband. Her
rude husband slapped her in fury. Unexpectedly,
she lost consciousness due to this slap. After she
came round, she found there was roaring in her ears.
She lost the hearing and language ability. It was
too late for her husband to repent. So her husband
accompanying her went to see many doctors. Half
year past and no hospital gave her recovery. When
she almost lost her hope, a relative who works in
Zhengzhou city brought her a message that Zhao Chaoqing,
the chief doctor in Yikang Traditional Chinese Medicine
Hospital, Drafting health-checking Center of Zhengzhou
People’s Government is famous in treating deaf-muteness.
The relative suggested her have a try. Her apologetic
husband accompanying her went to Zhengzhou Yikang
traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital at once. After
complete examination, Mr. Zhao Chaoqing decided
to cure her by acupuncture. He attacked her at Yamen
with a special acupuncture needle. When he put the
needle into the point for about 2 inches, the woman
suddenly cried out. She could felt the needle! After
adjusting the acupuncture method, the woman could
count and called her child’s name. Having acupuncture
for another 3 times, the woman regained her hearing
and speaking ability. All the people around her
were amazed at it. This miracle went around the
village. While to Mr. Zhao Chaoqing, the doctor,
it was very common. He said, “In these years, I
have cured countless patients suffered from deaf-muteness
and deafness. I also have realized my dream when
I released their sufferings. It’s my wish to cure
patients with my medical technology.”
Mr. Zhao Chaoqing was born on Dec., 1954 in a
peasant’s family in Tongxu County. He was very
intelligent and studied very hard. He hoped to
be a useful person. In 1964, a disease determined
his future. In that autumn, he suffered from pleurisy
due to his poor health. He had a continuous high
fever and could not bear the sufferings. Sometimes,
he was even unconscious. He could not forget in
his life the feeling of the pain. It seemed that
he was cut. Little Chaoqing had thought he could
not recover again. He was upset and waited to
die. But in the critical time, he met a good doctor
in Kaifeng City. After being treated for a month,
he recovered completely and went back home. But
this determined his future. He began to cherish
a feeling of great reverence for doctor. What
a holy and noble job! To be a doctor can relieve
patients’ sufferings and save people’s life and
soul. The wish to be a doctor and a famous doctor
took root in his mind. From then on, he began
to prepare for his dream. Whenever he saw or heard
good prescriptions and folk recipes, he wrote
them down and put them in order. Thus, he had
been a health worker in his village before he
joined the army at the age of 16. When he joined
the army in 1970, he became a health worker in
his troop for his basic medical technology. From
then on, Mr. Zhao Chaoqing studied harder and
especially, he was interested in acupuncture,
the legacy of ancient medical science. Acupuncture
therapy has special effect on many diseases. For
example, to the deaf-mute patients, it will not
have good effects by only taking medicine. While
supporting by acupuncture, it will have an unexpected
effect. As a health worker in his troop, he was
famous for his skills and common people around
the troop also came for their illness. Once upon
a time, Wang Dajun, a deaf-mute child in a small
village in Minqin County, Gansu Province, accompanied
by his mother, visited Mr. Zhao for his illness.
At that time, the opinion of medical circles on
deaf-muteness was no needs to diagnose and treat
them. Mr. Zhao studied acupuncture hard and he
found with his experience that doctors always
attacked the point deeply in the ear surroundings
while in Yame point, attack was seldom made and
even made, the attack was very slight. So the
patient was no respond for the attack. He thought
Yamen is a key point in curing dumb. If it was
because the slight attacking or wrong direction
that caused the failed effect. Mr. Zhao looked
over many materials on acupuncture for his thought.
The materials showed that it must be very careful
for the attacking on Yamen and deep attacking
was forbidden. But Mr. Zhao thought it a limitation
caused by history and science development. In
80s, modern medical science was very advanced
and the science should be developed. So he let
his colleague stay beside him and attacked his
own Yamen with the needle. All the people were
worried about him because deep attacking on the
point would have the risk of life. When the needle
was put into about 2 inches, he felt dizzy and
fell unconsciously on the bed. His colleague pulled
out the needle immediately. After he came round,
he felt his tongue was numb. But in order to have
the firsthand information, he went on attacking
on his own Yamen. He attacked three times five
days later and he got strong feeling of the needle.
Mr. Zhao Chaoqing broke the limitations of generations
and gained the valuable experience of Yamen attacking.
In the following period, he treated the deaf-mute
child, Wang Dajun with acupuncture of attacking
Yamen point. When the needle was put into about
2 inches, the child cried out unexpectedly. After
acupuncture for another 3 times, the child regained
the ability of listening and speaking. This success
encouraged Mr. Zhao greatly and it was the first
step for him in treatment of deaf-muteness. And
also for this success, the troop rewarded him
the Merit Citation Class III and sent him to have
a further study in military medical university
for 4 years. Mr. Zhao was in his element in the
university and his medical technology and skills
were improved greatly. He got another solid step
for realizing his dream due to the changing from
a health worker to a medical officer. After that,
he was trained for another professional internal
medicine for medical officers and he became famous
in the troop. Meanwhile, in order to give his
commendation for his contributions, the higher
levels rewarded him and promoted him as the chief
surgeon, the chief physician, leader of a scientific
researching department, the leader of hospital.
He is a physician-in-charge with the 9th grade
of professional technology (vice regimental class).
He was ranked the major in 1988 and lieutenant
colonel in 1992. For his honors, he was ranked
as advanced person in learning from Lei Feng and
the six company for the achievements gained by
the units in his charge. In the operation competition
held by medical system in divisional class, he
gained the first. He has been rewarded for 13
times by the regiment and the division headquarters
and Merit Citation Class III for 4 times.
In 1998, Mr. Zhao Chaoqing left from the army
and worked in Yikang Traditional Chinese Medicine
Hospital, Drafting health-checking Center of Zhengzhou
People’s Government. As chief surgeon, he worked
very hard. The department of deaf-mute, tinnitus
and headache charged by him is very famous in
Zhengzhou City, the Capital of Henan Province.
Many people come here for treating of their de8,
Mr.af-mute, tinnitus and intractable headache.
He also has a new therapy called Five in One,
that is the treating of nerves, acupuncture, umbilical,
diet and threading (including threading and acupoint
drug-embedding). It is his pleasure to treat patients
with his Five in One therapy and his experience.
As he says, “ It is my wish to make the patients
recover.”
