“There is a way, but it can’t be implemented right now. It’s gonna take a period of observation. We can’t undergo the brain treatment until the examination data reaches the ideal state.”
“How long do you roughly need?”
“About three months! During this period, we will do everything in our power to maintain your father’s treatment while he is in a coma.”
“Please prescribe him with whatever
medication he needs. Money is not a
problem,” said Elliot.
“We will, Young Master Elliot. We guarantee to provide the best available treatment for Mr. Tillman,” they replied.
With a question that had been lingering on her mind, Anastasia took the opportunity to ask, “Does my dad’s episode have something to do with his
alcohol intake-specifically two glasses of wine?”
“Miss Tillman, if he only drank two glasses of wine, it would not cause his heart failure. We suspect that your father had ingested the medicine by mistake.”
“Yes. We found a small piece of residual pill in your father’s mouth and it is a poisonous drug for the cardiovascular system. Rather than strengthening the heart, it has the opposite effect. As for the exact properties of it, it will take two days for us to verify
“What?! My dad took the wrong pill?” Anastasia was shocked to hear that. Why would her father take the wrong pill?
“Perhaps you should inquire with someone who stays with your father about the situation and the kind of drugs he usually takes.”
“Okay. I’ll get to the bottom of it while I collect some samples of my dad’s medications for your inspection.” “That would be great”
“Elliot, it’s cold at night. We’ve arranged a room in the hotel opposite the hospital. Take Miss Tillman over to rest! Rest
assured we’re here to take care of Mr. Tillman!” suggested Benedict.
Elliot nodded in agreement and looked at Anastasia. “Benedict and the others will guard here. They’ll inform us right away if something happens.”
Anastasia knew that treating her father would be a long battle that would take more than a day or two. She had to maintain her physical strength and body in order to take care of her father.
When they walked out of the hospital and entered the car, she was thinking about one thing-why is there even a chance for a poisonous drug within the reach of my dad, let alone mistakenly ingest it?
