The doors of the emergency room swung open, and the doctor emerged.
Francis immediately approached, "How's my brother?"
"Mr. Francis, Mr. Gilbert needs to be taken to surgery immediately. He has too many injuries. The ER isn't equipped to handle this."
Sherilyn's heart sank.
"Alright," Francis nodded, decisive. "I'll sign whatever you need. Just hurry."
"Of course, Mr. Francis."
After the paperwork was finished, Gilbert was wheeled straight from the ER to the OR, without Francis and Sherilyn getting a chance to see him.
