Chapter 624
Rocher Private Hospital was very efficient. The moment Henrick finished paying the fees, the examination report was already out.
The doctor said, “The patient does not look good, and surgery is required. However, she is already old, and there is a lot of risk with the surgery. If you agree to it, please sign the responsibility waiver agreement here.”
Hearing that, Henrick was perplexed.
“What do you mean? Why would a fall warrant a surgery? Was there a fracture?”
The doctor shook his head then nodded. “There was a broken bone, but that is just a minor issue. The main thing is that there are ruptured blood vessels in her body. And because she has hypertension, she is already experiencing internal bleeding as we speak.”
Henrick immediately looked solemn.
He really did not expect Malorie’s little fall to become so serious. Half an hour ago, she just visited a psychic and now she suddenly had to undergo surgery.
“You’re a family member, yes?” the doctor asked, “Do you want her to undergo this surgery? If so, please sign here.”
Henrick gritted his teeth and scrawled his signature on the paper before reminding the doctor, “Please arrange the best surgeon for my mother. I will pay any amount.”
Without her, there was no way he could manage the family business.
Indeed, it made more money than the Southall Group now.
The doctor nodded and arranged for the surgery immediately.
They needed to do more in-depth examinations before the surgery, but the result made the doctor’s face fall.
They detected a more serious condition — there were issues with her heart as well.
The nurse took a look at the report and told the doctor, “There is an underlying condition with this patient’s heart. When she fell, the ruptured vessel was near to the heart. Hence, this is going to be a very complex surgery.”
The doctor nodded and said, “The heart may not necessarily be able to handle it if we do vascular surgery. She needs a heart transplant first before we can proceed with the surgery. However, if we don’t operate now, she may not live to see tomorrow!”
The nurse sighed and said, “Where are we going to find a suitable heart on such short notice?”
The doctor’s eyes lit up. “Don’t we have the high-tech robotic pacemakers from Sann Group? If the family is willing to spend this amount, it will definitely make the operation easier, and the success rate will be higher
too.”
The nurse smiled bitterly at the doctor, “It’s too late. Doctor, before you came in, the robotic pacemakers have already been used.”
The nurse explained briefly the matter with Soir Coffee earlier in the day.
With mixed emotions, the doctor said, “In that case, I can only ask Dr. Ziegler and see if he is willing to take up this surgery.”
“In that case, you should go ahead. We will keep an eye on the patient.”
“Alright.”
The doctor then hurried to Zachary’s office. He explained the patient’s condition to him while handing the report to him.
Zachary took a close look and frowned. “Even I can’t do this surgery. The patient is too old, and it is too risky. If we had Sann Group’s robotic pacemakers we might have a chance, but…”
Zachary was getting more frustrated when he suddenly recalled Arielle’s words.
She said that as long as she could perform the surgery, she would supply the hospital with ten robotic pacemakers.
At that, Zachary’s eyes lit up, and he said, “Wait for me while I make a phone call.”
Even if I can’t get the robotic pacemakers, I can still take the opportunity to tease that silly girl.
I’ll definitely feel better after that.
