As tears slowly trickled down Lysander’s cheeks, she could no longer contain her sorrow. She buried her head in Josiah’s sleeve and broke into a heart–wrenching cry.

It was common to see distraught family members of patients wailing in despair outside the emergency room. Medical workers passing by had grown accustomed to such scenes, offering only a sympathetic glance.
