Chapter 888 It’s Part of the Process
In the end, Jenny couldn’t convince her to undergo the surgery. She had no way to solve her problems. Although she was confident in the surgery, she couldn’t guarantee success.
Of course, Jenny could pay for the surgery. However, it would not solve the problem. People like her were rampant, and there would be more in the future. She couldn’t save them all. novelbin
Besides, when Jenny suggested the idea, the mother refused at once. She didn’t know what to do.
Feeling frustrated, Jenny knocked on the director’s door.
“Jenny,” he said politely. He knew she was skillful despite her young age and knew of her identity.
Jenny smiled at him and sat down. “Patient number 23 says that she wants to be discharged.”
The director was stunned. He was trying to remember who it was. He soon did. She was a mother with a little girl next to her. It was quite memorable.
“Why so sudden? Isn’t her surgery scheduled after two weeks?” The director was surprised. He had seen her records and knew that surgery could cure her condition. It was not to the point of giving up.
Jenny sighed. “She said she wanted to leave some money behind for her daughter.”
“Well…” The director was at a loss for words. However, it wasn’t the first time he had seen something like this, and he knew why Jenny was so upset. He tried to comfort her. “Do you think it’s a pity she’s choosing to give up her life for money?”
Jenny said nothing, but it was true.
“Jenny, you’re not short of money. You don’t know how important it is to normal people. You cherish life and want to save them even if they go broke. But normal people have to consider many things. What if the surgery doesn’t work? It’d be a disaster if they lost both their health and their money.”
Jenny lowered her head, feeling unpleasant.
The director smiled lightly. “Well, you’re a doctor. It’s part of the process. You’ll get used to it. People may say we are cold, but they don’t know that we’ve seen many cases like this. It hurts, but we can’t do anything, and it will haunt us for the rest of our life. If you can get over it, you’ll become a qualified doctor. But if you don’t…”
The director didn’t finish his words, but Jenny knew what he meant. If she couldn’t deal with something like that, she wasn’t cut out to be a doctor.
Jenny felt bitter. She asked, “Can I pay for her surgery, then?”
There was a child involved. Jenny didn’t have a mother growing up. She couldn’t just let a young girl lose her mother like that.
“Well, I won’t recommend it,” he said. “Think about it. You can pay for one patient’s fees today, and soon, everyone will know that there’s a kind- hearted doctor in Bardoff City who would pay for their patient’s surgery. Everyone would swarm toward you. What would happen, then?”
Jenny opened her mouth to say something, but the director said, “Even if it doesn’t spread, how can you guarantee that you won’t encounter something worse in the future? Are you going to keep paying the bills?”
Jenny wanted to say that she was not short of money and would be willing to pay the bills. However, she kept quiet because she knew how laughable those words were.
