“So, why were you looking for me?”
“Dr. Moore, I would like to ask you something. You say that my illness can be treated by surgery. Can you explain to me about this treatment?”
Sasha did her best to sound polite, for she did not want to irk the doctor any more than she did.
Dr. Moore looked at her. “Well, I’ll cut open your blood vessels and remove the clot inside it.”
When Sasha heard this, she was disappointed.
She had already guessed that this was the method he would use.
However, it was not just one blood vessel of hers in the lumbar region that had lesions but many. There’s no way he could open up every blood vessel in there…
Sasha became uninterested again. “Doctor Moore, are you kidding? My whole body is like this…”
“That’s why we’re doing the surgery that is endangering your life the most first. As long as we remove the blockage in the blood vessels that are more important, your body would be able to have a stable function and those other less seriously affected blood vessels will recover naturally.”
The doctor with the hoarse voice interrupted her, stating his treatment plan in a flat tone.
Sasha fell silent.
She had never thought of that before.
Although she was a doctor, surgery had never been her forte. As such, she had never done much research in this area.
Does that mean I have a chance to live?
Sasha’s heart that was filled with despair and disheartenment started beating with hope again.
In the following days, Sasha was very cooperative as she followed every instruction that was given by the nurse.
When she heard that taking the drugs that could soften her blood vessels could increase the success rate of her surgery, she endured its bitter taste and swallowed it.
Apart from that, the doctor told her that exercise would be good for her, as it would make her body strong and prevent mishaps that might occur during surgery due to physical weakness.
As such, she went to the garden daily to exercise.
However, it was not convenient for her because she was blind. Most of the time, a nurse accompanied her. If the nurse wasn’t around, Sasha dared not leave the ward.
Nobody understood how terrifying the world was to someone who had lost their sight suddenly.
One day, the nurse had some other business to attend to, so she did not turn up.
“Hi, Wand, do you want to go out to exercise today?”
“Yeah, give me a minute.”
Suddenly hearing the voice of a patient outside her ward inviting her, Sasha was overjoyed. Rolling her wheelchair, she groped her way out of the ward.
The fellow patient saw this and came over to help her out.
“Wand, how are you lately? I can see that you’re looking healthier.
“Really?”
