Chapter 2773
When His Eyes Opened
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Santosâs voice came: âHave you found a heart that can be transplanted to
our son? Is it possible to operate?â
âYes! Dr. Tate said she found it!â Mr. Santos returned to his wife.
âGreat! Iâm going to pack my luggage right now, letâs go to Bridgedale right away!â After Mrs. Santos
finished speaking, she hurried away.
Avery listened to the conversation between the couple and could understand their excitement.
âMr. Santos, Ericâs doctor told me that the success rate of the operation is 90%.â Avery clarified the
situation, âThe matching is not 100%. It is difficult to find a 100% matching donor. As for Ericâs situation,
it canât be delayed for a long time, so the doctorâs suggestion is to have an operation. But the operation
is risky, so I have to tell you clearly. Then itâs up to you to decide.â
Mr. Santosâs excited mood suddenly cooled down.
âThatâs not what you said before⦠You said before that finding the right heart can restore him to
normal.â Mr. Santos couldnât accept Averyâs statement.
Avery immediately apologized: âIâm sorry. I lied. I was afraid that you and your wife would collapse, and
I was also afraid of my daughterâs collapse, so I finished my words. But the 90% success rate is quite
high. You can try it.â
Mr. Santos: âIs this the only choice? Is there no other way?â
âYou can refuse. We will continue to look for a donor for Eric. We may find a donor with a higher
matching value in the future, or we may not be able toâ¦â Avery explained the situation, âI recommend
surgery. Eric has been using ECMO for a long time, and I am afraid that it will be delayed to the critical
value of the time limitâ¦â
âIâll discuss it with my wife. Donât hang up. Iâll ask her now.â Mr. Santos walked quickly towards the
bedroom with his mobile phone.
After a while, Mr. Santos told his wife all about what Avery just said.
Mrs. Santos hesitated for a few seconds after hearing this, and then expressed her attitude: âSince Dr.
Tate suggested surgery, letâs listen to Dr. Tate! We donât understand these things⦠If we miss it this
time and we donât find a suitable heart in the future, wonât our son have no hope at all? After waiting for
this heart for so long, who knows when the next suitable heart will be found?â
âA 90% success rate is better than waiting to die!â Mrs. Santos added.
Mr. Santos took the phone, walked aside, and replied to Avery.
In fact, Avery had already heard what Mrs. Santos said just now.
After Mr. Santos replied to Avery, Avery continued to finish what he hadnât said, âOne more thing, I
asked the doctor, and the doctor said that the longest survival time for patients who have undergone
heart transplantation in the world is 30 years. The longest survival period in Bridgedale after receiving a
heart transplant is 25 years.â
Mr. Santos was hit again.
âEven if the operation is successful, my son can only live for thirty years at most?â
Avery: âThatâs not what I mean. Maybe Eric can live longer, or maybe not that long. Everyoneâs physical
fitness is different, and the degree of rejection after surgery is also different, so the time they can
survive is also different. â
Mr. Santos was very frustrated.
Mrs. Santos listened to Averyâs words, so she took the phone from her husband.
âDr. Tate, I know you hope that Eric can live a good life. No matter how long Eric can live after the
operation, this operation has to be done. He will earn money if he lives an extra day. Like now, he lies
in a critical condition every day. In the intensive care unit, although he is alive, I canât see him, and I
canât hear his voice, I donât want this anymore⦠So, letâs have an operation!â
âOkay.â Avery understood Mrs. Santosâs mood, âI havenât notified Layla yet. Iâll call Layla right away,
and you will come over together when the time comes.â
âOk.â
After talking on the phone, Avery dialed the phone to Layla.
Layla had just arrived at the company.
After receiving her momâs call and listening to what her mom said, Laylaâs calm face suddenly showed
a rich expression change.
