As Mark walked back to the operating theater’s waiting area, the doctor just so happened to walk out o f the emergency room. He had a surgical mask in hand.
"How is my grandma?" Mark hurriedly asked. His face looked sullen, anxious, and worried.
"Ms. Moore's condition doesn't seem to be good. She's had a history of a cerebral hemorrhage. So, regardless of bodily function or blood vessels, they have all become fragile. I’m afraid that this time..."
Suddenly, the expression on Mark's handsome face changed. Now, it was as dark as gloomy clouds... Awfully dark. Plus, the green veins on the back of his hands were protruding. He grabbed the doctor's white coat tightly and said, "What the f*ck did you just say?"
The doctor was shocked by Mark's current disposition, and he trembled a little. But Gordon interrupted to stop Mark. "Tell me."
"Actually, Ms. Moore's condition is much more serious than it was in the last accident. When a cerebral hemorrhage happens, most people would be unconscious for a long period of time or die on the spot. Ms. Moore's previous case was already considered a miracle. This time, however, her
condition is extremely bad. Please be mentally prepared for the worst." The doctor let out a deep sigh.
After that, Ms. Moore was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit. The visiting hours provided were only for a n hour.
The first to enter the room was Gordon. When he saw Ms. Moore lying on the hospital bed in a haggard state, how could he be at peace?
Mark was not in a better state either. Emotions of anguish, anxiety, distress, and depression filled him entirely.
Earlier on, the doctor had left a piece of advice before h e left. He had said that it would be better for Ms.
Moore if she could stay somewhere she felt comfortable with. At this time, it was better to bring her to such a place because leaving her in the hospital would not bring any effects.
Cerebral hemorrhage was not the same as other chronic illnesses that could be treated slowly. Once the bleeding happened, it was often fatal. All it took was just one hit to easily cause the person to collapse completely.
