Chapter 2329
As Doris listened to Dr. Spears illustrate the case, she carefully recalled her father''s activities and said, "Dr. Spears, I have never seen my father take
any unknown drugs after his illness worsened nor did I see him take any traditional medicine, let alone Dutchman''s pipe.”
Then, she added, "Overall, he was in excellent health after hisst kidney transnt with a rtively mild form of diabetes, so he had been taking
metformin extended-release tablets, but that drug does not do harm to the kidneys and will not cause acute kidney failure." 2
Dr. Spears nodded and said, "I understand
Dutchman’s pipe is just an example. but there are a lot of traditional medicinal ingredients out there that can trigger acute kidney failure, not just
Dutchman''s pipe. There are many chemicals and organicpounds that have great nephrotoxicity.” 2
Doris asked, "Dr. Spears, is there any way to find out exactly what caused my father’s acute kidney failure?"
Dr. Spears said, "I''ve sent your father''s blood and urine samples to theb for testing. but the series of tests are very tedious and time-consuming
and we won''t get the results so soon.”
Then, he stated, "Miss Young, the most urgent task right now is not to find out the cause of your father’s kidney failure, but to solve the problem of
kidney source as soon as possible. That is the mest critical issue at the moment!" 3
Doris sighed with extreme helplessness and said, "I''ve raised the price to 10 million dors this morning, but my father is RH negative blood type.
This alone has eliminated 99% of the kidney sources out there...” i
Dr. Spears nodded and said earnestly, "Miss Young, I know that the current situation is indeed very destitute. I''ve also mobilized my friends and
coworkers to inquire about the kidney sources around the country, but I have yet to receive any news until now."
At this point, he sighed and said in a low voice, “Miss Young, I advise you to be prepared for the worst-case scenario..." 4
After a moment of silence, Doris nodded slightly and said feebly, "Thank you, Dr. Spears. I understand. I''ll think of another way...”
"Okay." Dr, Spearsforted her,
"But don’ tbe too pessimistic. I''ve
been in-medicine for so many years,
and I''ve seen and heard of many
miratles which I stillcan’t ?
com nprehend.”

"Someone was dered to have only
a few monthsNeft to live due to
advanced stage of cancer, but he
left the haspital with extreme NN
optimisraand even spent every ¢ day
as if itvas hisst. Miraculously; the
few.pyonths of "sentence" was
extended to three years, fiveyears,
afd even ten years. IN fact the
cancer cells in his body start to
diminish as if they felt some sort of
power that was attacking them..."
"There was also another miraculous case that happened right at our Silverwing Hospital. A paraplegic patient was healed all of a sudden..." 6
Thinking that Dr. Spears wasforting her, Doris nodded gently. but she did not believe in such a miracle at all. 2
In her opinion, the only solution now was to find a kidney source. Other than that, there was just no other way.
As Doris came out of Dr. Spears’ office, she walked toward the ward in dismay.
She did not expect that her father''s condition, which had already deteriorated to this extent, would elerate.
The twenty-day transnt window was now shortened into fifteen days.
She didn''t know if the window period would continue t 0 shorten tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
She hadn''t walked far when she suddenly received a call from Charlie. 2
At this moment, Charlie was on his
way to Gegham''s house. i
Remerpbering that Doris had not yet
given:him a definite answer, he had
called her to ask if she had time in
the-evening or not. Content. belongs
