Chapter 341



My heart skipped a beat, thinking about the tests Susie underwent today. "Is it bad news about the test results?" Fanny, hands stuffed in her coat pockets, shook her head lightly. "No, there's been a hitch with the donor."

I frowned in confusion. "Huh?"

"The donor was declared brain dead, in a vegetative state. The family was ready to let go, agreeing to donate all the organs, but then, at the last minute, they changed their minds," I caught Fanny's drift.

"Do you know why they backed out?" I asked.

Fanny pursed her lips. "No idea. Just got the notification. You know donor information is confidential."

Thinking of Susie's hope for a new lease on life made me wish she didn't have to face the disappointment of not going through surgery just yet.
