His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2773

She then heard Mrs. Santos' voice.

"Did they find a matching heart for our son? Can he undergo the surgery now?"

"Yes! Dr. Tate said they found one!" Mr. Santos said.

"Oh, I'm so glad! I'll start packing right away. Let's go to Bridgedale!" Mrs. Santos said.

Avery overheard their conversation and could understand why they were excited.

"Mr. Santos, Eric's doctor told me that there's a ninety percent chance that the surgery will succeed," Avery said. "The heart is not a perfect match. Considering Eric's current condition, we can't postpone the surgery any longer. The doctor recommends that we start the surgery as soon as possible as we can't afford to wait any longer, but there are risks. I need to explain everything to you, and it's up to you to decide what to do."

Mr. Santos immediately froze. "That's not what you said before... You said that he will get back to normal once you find a matching heart..." He found it difficult to accept what Avery had said.

"I'm sorry, but I lied. I was worried that Layla, you, and your wife would all have a breakdown, so I made that promise. However, a ninety percent success rate is rather high, and I think it's worth the try."

"Is that the only option? Do we have any other choices?"

"You can say no to this, and we will keep looking for organs for Eric. There is a chance that we will find an even better match for him, but there's also a chance that we don't..." Avery explained. "I recommend the surgery. Eric has been on the ECMO for too long, and I'm afraid that his body can't withstand it any longer..."

Mr. Santos was overwhelmed by sorrow, and Mrs. Santos, who had heard Avery, took the phone from his hand and said, "Dr. Tate, we know that you want Eric to live. No matter how long he gets to live after the surgery, you have to proceed with it. Every day he gets to live is a bonus. He is lying in the ICU, and though he is technically alive, I can't see him or hear his voice. I don't want that... Let's just do the surgery!"

"Sure." Avery could sympathize with their struggle. "I haven't informed Layla about this yet. I will call her right now, and you three can come together."

"Sure."

After the call, Avery phoned Layla, who had just arrived at the office.

As soon as Layla received Avery's call, her composure instantly shattered.
