Unspoken Hearts: My Neglected Mute Wife’s Escape

Chapter 65:

Holding the thin piece of paper, Kallie’s head spun. The world seemed surreal to her.

Kallie barely grasped what the doctor was saying next. “Based on her blood work, she’s been dealing with anemia and malnutrition, hasn’t she? She’s not fully recovered, and now with the baby, it’s pulling nutrients from her, which caused her to faint.”

The doctor smiled reassuringly. “I know sign language. There really isn’t a foolproof safe period. Pregnancy can occur at any time if precautions aren’t taken.”
