Chapter 322 Bone Marrow Matching of Immediate Family Members The bigger the city, the better the medical care.

"I can only give you the results. For treatment, you need to go to a bigger city, or straight to LA," the doctor advised, "LA is a major port city, very advanced in all aspects. Maybe the doctors there can fully cure it." Penelope never thought she'd hear "LA" again while trying to treat Lucy's leukemia! "Okay," she nodded. "Thank you." As she stood up, Penelope's vision blurred, causing her to sway unsteadily and nearly lose balance..

She grabbed the table, trying to steady herself. "How much would the treatment cost, roughly?" The doctor replied, "Conservatively, around seven to eight hundred thousand dollars." Seven to eight hundred thousand dollars! Where would Penelope get that kind of money? The house in the neighborhood was bought by Brandon.

She had nothing when she left by jumping into the sea and chere. Everything she had now was earned bit by bit.

Did she have to go to Brandon again? She really owed Brandon too much; but for Lucy, Penelope would do anything! "And money is just one part," the doctor added. "Leukemia requires a bone marrow match. Only after a successful match can a transplant be done. Having a matching bone marrow is the hope for a cure. If you have money but no bone marrow, it won't be of much use." Penelope quickly asked, "Will the hospital help us find a bone marrow match?" "We will help, but generally speaking, the probability of a match with a stranger is very low." "So the probability of a successful match is highest with direct relatives, right?" The doctor nodded.

This was undoubtedly another blow to Penelope! Lucy's direct relatives were her and Kelvin! If her bone marrow didn't match Lucy's, she would have to find Kelvin! Seeing her pale face, the doctor adjusted his glasses. "Of course, it's not necessary to have a direct relative, just a higher success rate. And speople, even if they match, are unwilling to donate." Penelope closed her eyes.

After a few seconds, she reopened them and exhaled. "Okay, I got it. Thank you." "You're welcome." Penelope didn't even know how she walked out of the hospital.

Standing under the sun, she still felt bone-chilling cold.

What should she do? The surgery cost for Lucy was a huge amount of money, and the bone marrow match was like a mountain pressing down on her.

To save Lucy, Penelope could do anything! If she had to find Kelvin, she was willing to go back to LA! Kelvin had immense power and resources. He could hire the best expert team in the world to tailor a treatment plan for Lucy! He could also search the world for a matching bone marrow! With him, Lucy had hope! Penelope calmed down and quickly cup with a plan.

Finding Kelvin was the last resort, the most desperate measure. She would first take Lucy to the big hospital in the city! Back home, Lucy was sitting at the dining table, sipping soup.

"Mommy," she said, "can I go back to kindergarten tomorrow?" "You can't yet." "Why?" Lucy looked at her in confusion. "I feel much better. I'm not coughing anymore. Right, Ruby?" Ruby nodded. "Yes, Lucy is the best!" Penelope forced a smile. "Tomorrow, I'll take you to the neighboring city." Lucy blinked. "What are we going to do there?" Planning your weekend reading?

I'll take you to the big hospital in the city for a check-up." Lucy shook her head. "No need, Mommy. I'm really much better. Don't waste any more money. I want to go to kindergarten tomorrow. I miss my teachers and classmates!" "I have money, so don't worry. Your health is more important." Lucy said, "Is it because the doctor said I have leukemia?" Penelope's heart ached.

"No, how could Lucy have such a disease?" Penelope said, "Just listen to me. After we cback from the neighboring city, I'll take you to kindergarten, okay?" Lucy nodded.

"Good girl, finish this bowl of soup." "Mommy, you eat too," Lucy said, "You've lost weight." "Okay, I'll eat with you." Lucy turned her head. "Ruby, you eat with us too!" Ruby, who had been quietly wiping her tears nearby, quickly composed herself and smiled. "Okay, Lucy is so considerate." They sat at the dining table.

Penelope didn't even know what the food tasted like; she just kept stuffing it into her mouth.

It was Ruby who stopped her. "That's enough, Penelope." Only then did she realize and stop eating. "Okay." Penelope was in a daze.

After Lucy took a nap, Ruby quietly asked her, "What did the doctor say? What's Lucy's condition now?" "Leukemia, she's diagnosed and needs a bone marrow match," Penelope replied, "The hospital here can't treat her; we need to go to a city with better medical resources. I'll take Lucy to the neighboring city tomorrow." "I'll go with you." "Ruby, Sam is still here. You stay and take care of him." Planning your weekend reading?

Ruby patted her forehead. "I'm old and forgetful. I almost forget about Sam. But Penélope, can you manage on your own?" "Lucy is very obedient. There won't be any problems." Ruby sighed, said nothing, and quietly went back to her room.

Penelope sat there quietly.

She had already made up her mind.

She would first go to the neighboring city and check if her bone marrow matched. If it did, she could save Lucy! If it didn't match, she would have to ask the hospital to check if there was a matching bone marrow.

If there was still no match...

Penelope would have to take Lucy to find Kelvin.

Or, she could hand Lucy over to him without showing herself.

But how could she bear that? Just thinking about giving Lucy to someone else and never seeing her again in this life made Penelope's heart feel like it was being pricked by needles.

While she was lost in thought, Ruby handed her the phone.

"Penelope, it's Mr. Walker's call. You should take it." "Ruby..." Penelope guessed it.

Ruby must have gone to find Brandon just now! Penelope sighed and took the phone. "Brandon." "Ruby told me," Brandon's voice cthrough, "I'll transfer the treatment costs to Ruby's card. Then you..." Penelope's tears fell on the table, splashing into tiny droplets.

"I'm sorry," she choked back her sobs.

"I always trouble you. This tit's for Lucysol have no choice."

Brandon remained as gentle as ever. "This is an accident, not something you can controle Ahd, Penelope, since you left, you've been refusing my help."
