How big is a person's abdominal cavity?
If it were to hold water, how much could it hold?
Perhaps no one knew or had ever cared about this question in the past.
But today, on December 23rd, the Small New Year, everyone in Zhonghu Health Center knew just how large a person's abdominal cavity could be.
Liu Amei's ascites was drained for seven whole days.
When all the drained ascites was added up, it nearly equaled the amount of water in a large mineral water barrel from a dispenser.
Everyone present was a witness to this event.
Liu Amei lay on the hospital bed, her entire demeanor drastically changed compared to seven days prior.
Although her lower abdomen was still slightly bulging, she now resembled a woman four or five months pregnant.
Moreover, starting the day before yesterday, she had been able to get up and use the toilet normally.
