The Conqueror of the Miss Heart
S2 Chapter 9. Pimply
One came in a hurry, his breath was also chasing like he had just seen a ghost. His face looked panicked, it seemed like there was indeed an urgent matter that he had to convey to Daniel immediately.
"Excuse me doc..!!" yells.
"What's the matter, did something happen to that kid?" daniel asked no less panicked to face the situation. How not to panic if there are human lives in danger.
"The boy's blood type is AB+ Doc, and right now in the hospital we're out of stock of that blood type. So it's likely you haven't been able to perform the surgery today." The nurse filed a file containing the patient's data.
"How come, the boy needs surgery as soon as possible." Daniel was shocked to hear that.
The boy was not an accident victim who needed a lot of blood. But during the operation anything can happen including bleeding, so there should be a blood supply for the patient during the operation.
"Have you tried to contact any other hospital, to the blood bank of this country? Is there not one too?" ask Daniel urgently. It should not be like that, usually if any blood stock stays a little should have asked the blood bank or looking for a booster so that nothing like that happens.
"We've tried to ask and they're also running out of the same blood type. This morning there were two bags left and before we asked, someone asked for them." The nurse explained. It is not his fault for such a blood supply problem but still afraid.
"So, it's possible that there are family members who have the same blood type" the nurse suggested.
Daniel also had time to think so but saw Lucy who had been silent since he was sure that their blood types were different.
"What's up, Dad?" mia asked, she had just arrived and saw the tension on everyone's face.
"We ran out of the same blood stock as the boy. It probably won't be able to operate it now, and it might be very dangerous for him" Daniel replied.
"Have you asked another hospital?" ask Mia again. Daniel shook his head for sure.
"There's Lucy, Dad, she's her mother." Mia and everyone looked at Lucy who was still crying so heartbreakingly.
"Lucy... Is your blood the same?" ask Felice who is currently embracing Lucy's shoulder so that the woman does not fall due to weakness.
Lucy shook her head weakly, yes she knew that their blood was very different.
"That means he's the same as his father, can you get him here to give a blood donor to his son." Daniel hopes Lucy nods so he can have the surgery soon.
"Dad..," said Mia. She rubbed her husband's arm giving him peace.
Mia knows how her husband feels when he can't do anything to see his patient lying helpless. Not only this time he accompanied the husband when he was going to do the operation. Other times she has seen herself, her husband crying alone in her room when she was unable to save his patients.
"Dad, is there no other way. Not that my blood type AB+ is also Dad, my blood type is the same as papah." Mia gave me an idea. She had been thinking since she realized that she was pregnant and it would be dangerous if she donated blood.
"No, baby, you're pregnant. I don't want our son to do anything."
"But what about Lucy's son, Dad. I'm also a mother-to-be, I can feel how scared Lucy is right now." Mia really could not bear to see Lucy, what if it happened to her son later. Maybe she could be as strong as Lucy. "Dad, yes, yes." asked Mia very much.
Daniel shook his head, thinking what decision he might make. He certainly wanted to try to save the child, but he also could not endanger the life of his own son.
One more person came out from inside the operating room in a hurry to even run. As if there were not enough problems they were facing, now it seemed like that person also brought new problems.
"What are you doing here, Niel? The patient's condition is getting weaker, are you going to let him die just like that" Daren jolted with emotion, since inside he saw the child convulsing and his heartbeat weakening.
"We haven't got the blood yet doc" said the nurse.
"Isn't there a family, can't they donate." Daniel was eager to tie Daren's lips together without knowing what was going on. But he was quite able to endure it for not wanting to waste his manpower and time.
The nurse who had heard their conversation told Daren in a whisper because it was bad for everyone.
"Let me, Niel. Save the boy..." Mia begged.
"No Miss, you can't risk your child's life." Lucy disagrees too.
"So that's the problem" murmured Daren.
"Why not tell me since then, I'll donate my blood to the boy." Wagging his great coat.
