Chapter 280


    In response, Selena nodded.


    “There is something else that you should note. Even if you choose to let your daughter undergo the


    regr treatment, her immediate family members should also do a test to see if there is a match, so


    that we can operate on her as soon as possible in case she needs a bone marrow transnt.”


    Once again, she nodded.


    “There’s also another treatment called a cord blood transnt, so I wonder if you have ns to


    conceive again. Many families that weren’t able to find a donor opted to conceive another child to


    make use of the child’s cord blood for treatment. It is a more effective treatment with a higher rate of


    recovery.”


    “Conceive another child?”


    “That’s right. Cord blood transnt is effective on some children. I’m telling you this so that you can


    know all your options. Your daughter’s case is discovered early on, so you have a lot of options. You


    should be mentally prepared to tackle this, so that you can pick out the best option for your


    daughter’s treatment.”


    After Selena left that office, she had been mulling on what that doctor told her. She wiped her tears


    away when she got to the ward before giving her stiff face a pinch to make sure she had a smile on


    her mouth.


    Meanwhile, Juniper was already awake. Upon hearing the door open, she turned to look at Selena.


    “Mom...”


    “I’m here!” Selena walked up to her bed to caress her cheek. “What would you like to eat?”


    “Mom, do I have a grave illness?”


    “No.” Unsure of how to divulge the news to her, Selena chose to keep her in the dark for the


    moment.


    However, Juniper stared at her with a straight face. “Mom, do I have leukemia?”


    Hearing her say that made Selena’s heart sink instantly.


    “I know what’s happening even if you don’t tell me. One of the children in our kindergarten never


    came back to the kindergarten after multiple nosebleeds. I overheard the teachers saying that he


    had leukemia. Treatment failed despite the huge fortune spent on it. He might nevere back


    ever again.”


    Upon hearing that, Selena pulled her in for an embrace, but Juniper still had more to say. “Mommy,


    will I die?” The mention of death made Selena feel even more sorry for her daughter. “Mommy, will I


    be able to go to where Jamie is if I die?”


    The fact that she still had to start an investigation to find Jameson totally went over her head. Too


    much had happened ever since she got back to Springvale, so she had a hard time keeping up with


    everything. Shaking her head, she consoled Juniper by telling her, “You won’t die. The doctor told


    me that even though you do have leukemia, there are many types of leukemia, and some are


    curable. Do you understand?”

    Juniper nodded despite her confusion.


    “Don’t you worry, as the doctor will do his best to treat you. However, the treatment might be painful.


    Are you afraid?”


    Shaking her head, Juniper replied, “I’m not. You will be with me, right?”


    “Yeah, I will be with you. Always.” Seeing how thoughtful she was made Selena want to cry.


    Sometimes, she wished that Juniper could be less mature; she would rather her daughter throw a


    tantrum so that she could soothe and love her. However, she was just too mature.


    After getting her hands on Juniper’s test report, Selena began searching for information online, as


    well as sending out emails to foreign research institutes. The reply they gave her indicated that they


    could indeed get a regr treatment first, just like what the doctor told Selena earlier, but Juniper


    might be more susceptible to rpses after treatment. Although there wasn’t a hundred percent


    chance that she would suffer a rpse, seeing that there was a chance of a rpse was proof that


    either a bone marrow transnt or cord blood transnt would be their best choice.
