The caregiver skillfully helped the mother adjust the bed and cover her with the blanket.
Soon, the attending physician responsible for them came in, holding a schedule for the tests.
"Both the enhanced CT and ultrasound exams are completed today. From the preliminary images, the situation is much like we anticipated. The specific results will need to wait for the imaging department expert to review them in detail and inform you during tomorrow's consultation. Tomorrow morning, we will arrange for a bone marrow biopsy..."
Zhang Yan nodded forcefully, memorizing every word the doctor said.
The doctor offered a few more reminders about resting and relaxing before turning to leave.
The ward returned to silence, with only the medical equipment emitting a faint and rhythmic "beep beep" sound.
The sky gradually turned dark.
Zhou Hui soon fell into a deep sleep from exhaustion.
Zhang Yan just sat by the bedside, motionlessly watching her mother.
"Knock, knock knock."
