The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
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 his last kidney transplant with a relatively 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 organic compounds 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 the lab 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 most critical issue at the moment!" 3

Doris sighed with extreme helplessness and said, "I've raised the price to 10 million dollars 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. Spears comforted her, "But don't be too pessimistic. I've been in medicine for so many years, and I've seen and heard of many miracles which I still can't comprehend."

"Someone was declared to have only a few months left to live due to advanced stage of cancer, but he left the hospital with extreme optimism and even spent every day as if it was his last. Miraculously, the few months of "sentence" was extended to three years, five years, and 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 was comforting 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 accelerate.

The twenty-day transplant window was now shortened into fifteen days.

She didn't know if the window period would continue to 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 Graham's house. Remembering 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.
