After the Death of the Mother-in-law, The Husband Gave Up the MistressChapter 1
My mother-in-law Norma Moore was in critical condition due to cerebral hemorrhage. She grabbed my hand and told me to wait for her son to come back and save her.
I held on to my last glimmer of hope, praying that Adam Johnson, the authoritative doctor, could save Norma, and I called him while suppressing my sadness.
When the phone was finally connected after ringing for a long time, the voice of Elvira Davis came from the other end.
"You don't have to call again. Adam won't answer. He has to spend my birthday with me. Nothing is more important than my birthday."
Before I could say anything, Elvira quickly hung up the phone.
When I wanted to call again, bad news came from the operating room.
That was too late...
Norma was dead!
——
"The bleeding has reached 15 ml. The situation is very grim. If Adam were here..."
The attending doctor had a worried look on his face. He opened the door a crack and motioned for me to go in and take a last look at Norma.
"The possibility of a second cerebral hemorrhage is very high. Once a second cerebral hemorrhage occurs, it is basically impossible to save the patient."
