After that, she picked up the hanging coat and said to Mariam Sol, "Mom, if there is nothing wrong, I will leave now."
Mariam Sol nodded and said, "Drive slow on the road. Pay attention to safety."
"Okay mom, I will."
Stella said goodbye to her mother and came out of the ward. Seeing that there was enough time, she went to the office of Director Smith of the Dept. of Nephrology.
Now, there are only 10 hours left before the deadline Caleb gave her. The only gleam of hope that Stella has is in Director Smith. She doesn't know whether Director Smith can initiate the relationship and help find the right source of the kidney. It is time to confirm 1 last time.
Stella came to the office door and knocked on the door, and heard Director Smith inside say: "Please come in." Then she pushed the door in.
As soon as she walked in, she said with some regret: "Dr. Smith, I'm so sorry to disturb you again."
Director Smith said hurriedly, "Don't be so polite, Stella, please sit down."
Stella said, "Dr. Smith, I… I can't sit down. I just have something to go out for. I came over to ask you, is there any chance for the kidney source?"
Director Smith sighed and said, "I've already talked to many of my classmates. The old classmates are now basically the directors of the nephrology Dept. of the top tertiary hospitals across the country. There are many related resources. They have agreed to help, but they can't guarantee whether they can find it. It's just luck."
Stella Nodded lightly, then lowered her voice several minutes, and said seriously: "That… Director Smith… If you or your classmates can help solve the kidney problem, I personally would like to take it. Give 3 million as a thank you token. If you can solve it by yourself, all 3 million will be given to you; if your classmates help to solve it, then I will give you 3 million, and an extra 2 million for all your hard work…… Please pay more attention…"
Upon hearing this, Director Smith hurriedly said: "Ms. Stella, I admit that some doctors do accept red envelopes from patients' family members, but I have never done anything like this in my medical experience for so many years. Don't worry, in your father's case, I will do my best to help. As for the hard work, you don't need to mention it again."
Stella realized that what she said just now really offended Director Smith's medical ethics, and hurriedly said apologetically: "Director Smith, I'm so sorry…I was too anxious, so I said what I said. Please don't mind…"
Director Smith nodded and said, "Ms. Stella, your feelings like this are common, in such cases. It's understandable. We usually operate on patients and their family members will come to stuff red envelopes in our pockets. If we don't accept them, they will feel as if we don't care about operating on their relatives…"
"So, I usually encounter this in a different way, I will accept the red envelope before the operation, and then quietly ask the nurse to hand it over to the hospital's finances. After the operation is over, we will directly charge the money to the patient's account. When the patient goes through the discharge procedures, The money will be returned to the family, so that the family can rest assured during the operation time at least."
Stella felt ashamed and said: "Director Smith, I'm really sorry, I was abrupt…"
Director Smith smiled. Waved his hand: "It's okay, I won't take it to heart. As for the kidney source, you can rest assured, I will definitely go all out."
"OK." Stella nodded and said, "Then Director Smith, I won't take your time anymore. I'm disturbing your work. If you have any progress, please contact me at any time."
Director Smith nodded and said, " Okay, I will call you if I have any news."
At this moment, someone suddenly opened the door in a panic and said: "Director Smith, important news! The examination of patients in Ward No. 1 finally has a clear result!"
