Chapter 1225: 319: Panic, Unveiling the Ugly Truth! _4 Chapter 1225: 319: Panic, Unveiling the Ugly Truth! _4 “There's no need for you both to be so tense. I hear you have something crucial to discuss with me – sit down and let's converse at ease.”
The Golemon's parents retake their seats.
Mr. Golemon gathers his thoughts before speaking, “Miss Thompson, the reason we are here is to implore you to save our daughter, Tiffany Golemon. She was on the cruise ship during the Bencho 518 shipwreck. She floated at sea for two full days and nights. By the time rescuers found her, she was in a deep coma. According to the doctors, there's severe water accumulated in her abdomen. Even if she survives, she'll live in a vegetative state.”
By the time he finished, Mr. Golemon could not hold back his tears.
Mrs. Golemon, too, was tear-streaked. “Miss Thompson, we're out of options. Tiffany's primary doctor mentioned that you might be our only hope. She's our only child…”
The two had worked hard their entire lives to afford their daughter's international education. They never thought they would face such a tragedy.
Though the ferry company said they would provide five million in compensation…
But what use is money, when their daughter's life is in the balance?
It can't bring their daughter back!
Viola Thompson had roughly understood Tiffany's situation. “Did you bring her medical reports and test results? I can only ascertain whether your daughter's condition is treatable after reviewing them.”
Her words were brutally candid.
But in the face of life and death, there's no place to evade such topics.
“We brought them.” Mrs. Golemon quickly turned to Mr. Golemon, “Quickly, show Miss Thompson the medical reports.”
Mr. Golemon quickly pulled out various medical reports and patient records.
Viola Thompson reached for them and began reading slowly.
During this time, the Golemon's parents dared not even breathe aloud.
Time seemed to stand still.
After a moment, Viola Thompson put down the medical reports.
Mrs. Golemon immediately asked, “What, Miss Thompson? Can my daughter be saved?”
Viola Thompson slightly furrowed her brows, “According to the medical report, your daughter's condition is extremely complicated. Besides the accumulation of fluid in her abdomen, there are signs of infection and inflammation.”
The lungs are vital organs in the human body, a minor issue can potentially be fatal, let alone fluid retention and inflammation!
Otherwise, the doctors would not directly pronounce that Tiffany would likely end up in a vegetative state.
“Then what should we do?” Mrs. Golemon, panicked, began to cry.
Mr. Golemon raised his head to look at Viola Thompson, “Miss Thompson, is there really no hope? Even if there's just a one percent chance, we will proceed with the treatment.”
“If surgery is performed, there's a ten percent chance of success.” Viola Thompson's expression was serious, “This also means that if the surgery fails, the patient may lose her heartbeat and cease to breathe, and cannot even remain in a vegetative state. It's up to you whether you're willing to take this risk.”
At these words, the room fell silent once more.
After a moment, the Golemon's parents shared a meaningful glance. Then Mr. Golemon spoke again, “If surgery is performed, will you be the chief surgeon operating on my daughter?”
“Yes, I will be.” Viola Thompson slightly nodded.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Golemon immediately answered, “We'll proceed! Even if there's only a ten percent chance of success, we'll go through with the surgery!”
“Alright, think it over carefully because it is no small matter. If you decide to go ahead with the surgery, contact me to schedule the procedure.” Viola Thompson left them a piece of paper with her phone number on it.
Given Tiffany's current condition, whether the surgery is performed a day earlier or later makes no difference.
At this moment, the Golemon's parents needed time to consider their options.
“Thank you, Miss Thompson! Thank you, Miss Thompson!”
“You're welcome.” Viola Thompson then said, “I have other matters to attend to.”
Watching Viola Thompson's retreating figure, Sasha suddenly chased after her, calling, “Miss Thompson!”
Viola Thompson halted and turned slightly, “Is there something else?”
Sasha presented a notebook with both hands, “Could you please sign your autograph for me?”
She practically worshipped Viola Thompson.
“Sure.” With that, Viola Thompson took the notebook and signed her name.
“Thank you, Miss Thompson!”
Sasha was ecstatic!
Her idol had signed her notebook, and Sasha yearned to announce this to the world.
An hour later.
Sasha and the Golemons returned to the hospital together.
Kayla Sullivan was still at the hospital caring for Tiffany.
Seeing the Golemon's parents return, she immediately approached and said, “Uncle, Auntie, you're back. Did Miss Thompson agree to perform Tiffany's surgery?”
Kayla purposely said that just to provoke the Golemon's parents.
