Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1453

Theo took me back to the ward. "I went to visit Munchkin just now. He's still sleeping. The doctor said that his body indexes have now returned to normal, and the next thing to consider is getting chemotherapy.”

I looked out the window with listless eyes. What was coming would come.

Theo knew that I had trouble making decisions, so he seemed to have already prepared an answer.

"Actually, chemotherapy is very helpful for Munchkin now-"

"He's too young." I cut Theo off halfway.

"He's too young to withstand the pain of chemotherapy." I knew that chemotherapy worked, but its greater use was merely as a means of comfort for the patient's family by the hospital.

It did the job of relieving the disease but did not completely cure it. I did not want Munchkin to suffer that kind of pain at such a young age.

"But his illness will only worsen if he doesn't get chemotherapy," Theo stressed but did not persuade me further as he knew what I was thinking about.

"I need some time alone."

Theo looked at me and eventually walked out of the ward.

I looked out the window and at the bright sunlight outside as if all the hustle and bustle had nothing to do with me anymore.

I knew that chemotherapy could relieve Munchkin's pain now, but there was no stopping once it began. Besides, Munchkin's health would only deteriorate. The only way to save him was to get a bone marrow transplant.

However, as his mother, I was very helpless.

Knock, knock, knock.

Crisp and forceful knocks sounded outside the door. "Can I come in?”

I turned my head back and saw Susan standing at the door. For some reason, I gradually felt calm when I saw her.
