"So, Phillip can have his blood tested, do you have any other blood relatives to Abby you can call on? It's no guarantee but it's the best hope we have right now. We've put out a general call for people to get 'tested for this genetic marker."

I shake my head. I'd sent Phillip to work, telling him I was okay with handling this on my own. I just really needed to think. "Phillip is not her biological father and my blood isn't a match."

I breathe out slowly, realizing how I have to tell Jayden after denying this since I've been back. None of this was supposed to happen.

"this may be the reason we get your daughter through this. Aftercare is so important and being in there with dedicated staff 24/7 may be why Abby thrives. Besides, if she does have to go on the list for a heart transplant, it could be years." My heart smashes into pieces at the thought of losing my daughter like that. But a transplant for a heart isn't easy to come by. I need to give her the best care she can get. I hate accepting charity from Jayden, but there's really no choice.
