Knowing that Sonia was the only patient inside, Harvey became worried. Suddenly, he saw another group of doctors rushing into the room.
“May I know what happened to the lady? I’m Dr. Moore, a doctor invited by His Majesty to give lectures in your country. I can lend a hand if there’s an emergency,” Arielle stopped one of the nurses and made her intention clear.
The nurse’s eyes glittered with hope when she heard that.
“She’s bleeding extensively. Let me lead you to the changing room to get ready,” the nurse replied as she ushered Arielle to get changed.
Two minutes later, they returned.
“Ari, I beg you to save her, please…” Harvey pleaded with a pair of red-rimmed eyes.
“Don’t worry!”
After leaving him with that assurance, Arielle entered the labor room, only to realize that Sonia’s situation was rather critical. She had fallen unconscious because of losing too much blood, and her blood system did not seem to function well.
“Help me perform an arterial blood gas test. Her pulse is exceptionally weak. What‘s her blood count now? And the lactic acid?”
“Her blood count is seven point four, whereas the lactic acid value has hit four!”
Arielle knew that Sonia’s situation was extremely critical.
She walked toward her and looked her in the eyes. “I’m here. Don’t be afraid. Don‘t worry too much.”
Sonia responded to her comforting words with a nod.
“I’m feeling a bit dizzy…” Sonia said in a feeble voice.
She was so weak at that time.
Arielle held her hands tightly and whispered in her ears, “It’s normal to feel dizzy because you lost some blood. Don’t overthink things. Everything will be just fine.”
The medical knowledge of the healthcare providers in Turlen was quite poor. They did not handle Sonia’s case well. In fact, all of their actions were guided by Arielle step-by-step.
Finally, they managed to stabilize Sonia’s pulse and blood pressure.
