A month later, her back had passed the infection stage, and it wasn't as painful as before.
But Liana was worried about the skin graft surgery: "I tried to contact a very famous plastic surgeon internationally, but I couldn't get through to her."
Dr. Teresa was quite skilled at skin repair, but it was very difficult to contact her and even harder to get her to agree to help Eleanor with the surgery.
Eleanor comforted Liana: "It's fine, an ordinary plastic surgeon will do. Scars on my back won't be visible anyway, and my clothes can cover them."
While peeling an orange, Hailey said, "Women shouldn't have scars; it's so ugly."
Eleanor didn't mind: "I got a scar from my heart transplant surgery too, a few more won't matter."
Hailey looked at her sympathetically: "You're so pretty, it's a pity you have scars."
Eleanor smiled: "I'm not a celebrity; it doesn't matter."
Just as Liana was about to say something, there was a knock on the door.
She opened it and was surprised to see the person in front of her, then her face lit up with joy.
"Dr. Teresa!"
Teresa was wearing a white women's suit, with an elegant and generous smile on her face.
"Dr. Terrill, I heard you have a patient here whose back was ruined by sulfuric acid. I came to see if I could help."
"That's great! I've been trying to contact you, but I could never get through. I didn't expect you to come to our hospital."
Compared to Liana's excitement, Teresa seemed calmer: "Let me see the patient first."
Liana nodded and led her into the ward.
Just as Liana was about to introduce Eleanor to Teresa, she saw Teresa walk up to Eleanor and extend her hand.
"Ms. Shultz, hello, I'm Teresa."
Eleanor and Hailey were taken aback, and Liana was also a bit confused. How did Teresa know Eleanor?
