Candice made a beeline to the hospital, where Dr. Brooks and his colleagues were eagerly awaiting her arrival in the office.

“You’re here,” Dr. Brooks exclaimed. “We need to discuss Mr. Sundance’s surgery with you in

detail.”

Candice braced herself for the worst, her expression stoic. “Go ahead, I’m ready to hear it.”

“Here’s the situation. Our hospital runs a program focused on scientific research and education. The previously enrolled patient is no longer able to participate. After reviewing Mr. Sundance’s case, we believe his condition is a suitable match for our program. We would like to get your

perspective on this.”

“What exactly does this program entail?” Candice asked, puzzled.

“The program involves filming the surgery for educational purposes,” Dr. Brooks explained. “Rest

assured, we only record the operation area, ensuring the patient’s face and private areas are not

captured. However, we require the consent of both the patient and their family.”

The team of doctors fixed their eyes on Candice, anticipating her decision.

She turned the information over in her mind slowly. “So this means my grandpa is eligible for

the surgery?”

Dr. Brooks nodded, adding. “The final decision hinges on the consent of the patient and their

family. It’s common for people to be hesitant about filming the surgery. Many consider it bad luck.

The previous patient backed out of the program for that very reason.”

A glint of hope sparked in Candice’s eyes, but she quickly subdued it. “Could I have a word with

the lead surgeon? Are there any additional requirements for the surgery?”

“The lead surgeon is Dr. Sui. He’s here primarily for this program. The requirements for the patient

remain unchanged. The process is identical to standard surgery, apart from the filming aspect.”
