Chapter 579
Esther struggled to help Bradley lie down on the hospital bed and pressed the emergency button forassistance. She then ensured she looked presentable.
“Nurse, I have a patient with late–stage liver cancer here who fainted. Please notify a hepatologist tocome quickly,” she urged.
Esther maintained remarkable composure, fully aware that panic was not an option.
After informing the nursing station, she called Kevin.
“Kevin, Bradley coughed up blood and fainted. What should we do?” she asked.
Kevin exclaimed, “He coughed up blood again?”
“Yes,” Esther confirmed.
Kevin anxiously pressed, “Did he cough up a significant amount of blood?”
“It was quite a lot.”novelbin
Kevin’s tone grew somber. “Esther, brace yourself mentally. If we can’t perform a liver transplant soon,the prognosis may not be favorable.”
“I’ll check with… I’ll check with Mandy.” Esther was willing to do anything for Mandy should she decideto donate her liver.
Kevin sighed deeply. “Have the doctor administer medication to him first.”
“Okay.”
Doctors and nurses swiftly arrived, and Bradley was transported to the emergency room.
Felix, who had been sitting obediently outside the room, burst into tears upon seeing the unconsciousBradley and Esther’s blood–stained face. “Mommy!”
Esther held Felix’s hand, providing comfort. “Don’t be afraid, Felix. Mommy is okay.”
“Did Daddy faint?” Felix asked.
Esther nodded gently, continuing to hold Felix’s hand as they followed the medical staff into theemergency room.
“Felix, listen to Mommy. Uncle Kevin says Daddy has late–stage liver cancer. His erratic behavior mayhave been a symptom of his illness, but we didn’t recognize it then.”
Esther felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. She wondered if Bradley’s liver had started failing five yearsago and whether it was her fault for not realizing it sooner.
“Mommy, can Daddy get better?” Felix asked.
Esther tenderly stroked Felix’s hair and reassured him, “Yes, as long as he receives a liver transplant,he can recover.”
Then let’s ask Uncle Kevin to do the surgery for Daddy quickly!” Felix, being a child, didn’t grasp thegravity of liver transplantation and didn’t realize it wasn’t a simple solution.
“Uncle Kevin is currently searching for a suitable liver…”
Felix looked at Esther, sensing her worry, and asked, “Can my liver save Daddy?”
“You… No!” Esther ran her hand through Felix’s hair. “You’re still too young for such a surgery.” i
Partially understanding, Felix inquired, “When I grow up, can I give my liver to Daddy?”
“Yes.” Esther’s eyes welled up with tears at Felix’s earnest desire to save Bradley. She understood theywere equally important to Felix.
“So you must eat, sleep, and exercise more…”
“Okay,” Felix replied solemnly. “I’ll be good, Mommy.”
Kevin rushed over, his anxiety evident.
