Chapter 720 After calling Avery, the doctor also gave Elliot a call.
The two of them arrived at the hospital at the same time.
At the neonatal unit, the doctor explained the baby’s situation to them.
“The traditional treatment we gave him didn’t work. He started sleeping for longer periods of time and his breathing also became weaker… That’s when I realized that his symptoms might not be typical trauma from the premature birth.”
As the doctor spoke, he passed the baby’s chart to them.
Avery took over the chart and carefully read through it.
“There’s something wrong with the baby’s immune system.” The doctor’s expression turned heavy as he said, “He’s also severely anemic. I think the most important thing he needs right now is a blood transfusion. I’ve asked the blood bank here, and they don’t have the right blood type available. Your child’s blood type is a little special.”
Elliot’s heart fell to the pit of his stomach as he listened to the doctor’s words.
“His blood type is special?”
“THat’s right. We need to find a suitable blood type as soon as possible and start the blood transfusion. Otherwise, his body might not be able to make it past a few days.”
Without hesitation, Elliot immediately said, “Test my blood and see if it’s suitable.”
The doctor quickly instructed the nurse the take Elliot to get his blood drawn.
Avery swallowed back her tears and said, “Neither Elliot’s nor my blood are suitable.”
“Mr. Foster can check out other hospitals and see if they have this blood type with them,” said the doctor.
Avery first thought of Wesley.
She pulled out her phone and called him to tell him about the baby’s condition.
“Stay calm for now, Avery. I’ll head to our hospital’s blood bank right away and take a look,” Wesley said as he consoled her. “Is the anemia genetic or pathological?”.
Avery took a deep breath, then said hoarsely, “I don’t know the reason behind it yet. He’ll need additional tests. His body’s very weak right now and he needs a blood transfusion right away.”
After the phone call, Wesley immediately prepared to make his way to the hospital’s blood
bank.
Shea went after him DKNMAS:f asked confusedly, “What happened, Wesley?”
“Robert needs a blood transfusion,” Wesley answered truthfully. “Avery said that he’s in critical condition and needs a blood transfusion as soon as possible, but the hospital he’s staying in doesn’t have the right blood type.”
Anxiety and worry instantly appeared on Shea’s face.
“What do we do? I haven’t met my nephew yet! I don’t want him to be sick.”
“I’m going to check out the blood bank at my dad’s hospital now.”
“I’m going with you.”
Wesley nodded, then the two got in the car and made their way to Elizabeth Hospital.
On the drive there, he received Avery’s message with the baby’s blood type.
When it came to blood types, there was one that was relatively rare and special – RH negative blood types.
Unfortunately, that was exactly what Robert’s blood type was.
Wesley massaged the space between his brows after receiving the message.
There was practically no point in him going to the hospital now. He was sure that their blood bank did not carry this blood type.
RH negative blood types were extremely rare in Aryadelle, so it was impossible for them to be found in their blood bank.
Blood stored in blood banks had a shelf life of 35 days. There was no way such a rare blood type would be in stock.
“What is it, Wesley?” Shea saw the obvious gloominess on Wesley’s face, then looked down at his phone. “Who texted you? What did they say?”
