Chapter 647
The little girl was scared out of her wils by the accident. She was so terrified that she couldn’t listen to anybody’s advice. Her crying got louder and louder as she shook her head forcefully. “I want Mommy… I want to find Mommy. I want to go in and find Mommy!
The nurse felt a bit at a loss and she tried her best to comfort the little girl, “Your mommy is being treated right now. You can’t go in there because it’s not a place for kids. You need to be a good girl and wait here quietly If you keep crying loudly, it could disturb your mommy’s treatment!”
But the little girl kept sobbing “Mommy I want Mommy”
The nurse felt really stressed because she was unable to communicate with the child. She didn’t know how to comfort her.
“What’s going on here?” Ellinor walked over and asked.
The nurse looked up at her and sighed helplessly. “There was a major traffic accident on a nearby road. This little girl’s mother got seriously injured while trying to protect. her. From the looks of things, I’m afraid her mom’s condition isn’t promising”
When Ellinor heard the words ‘not promising, she looked serous, “Leave the child to me. I’ll stay here with her. You go in and do your job”
The nurse said, “Thank you so much! This kid has been banging on the door here and disturbing our doctors inside. I really didn’t know what to do!”
Ellinor replied, “No problem, I’m here to visit a patient anyway, so I can stay with the kid for a while.”
“Thanks a lot!” The nurse smiled gratefully and hurried back into the emergency room.
“I want Mommy… WAAA! I want to find Mommy!”
After seeing the nurse go in, the little girl became even more agitated and tried to follow her in
Ellinor wrapped her arms around her, squatted down, and looked her in the eye. She spoke very patiently. “You need to be quiet, okay? Your mommy will come out soon, and Ill wait here with you, alright?”
The little girl looked blank with tears still streaming down her face, “My mommy is bleeding… So much blood.”
“That’s why the doctors are working hard to save your mommy and are giving her new blood! But if you cry like this outside, your mommy will worry when she hears you. You don’t want your mommy to worry, do you?”
“But I’m afraid Mommy won’t wake up.”
Ellinor gently stroked the little girl’s head, trying to soothe her, “She won’t! Don’t be scared. Your mommy loves you so much; how could she leave you alone?”
The little girl calmed down and nodded, “Yeah! Mommy said she would never leave Lea Reynolds.”
So the kid’s name was Lea Reynolds.
Ellinor smiled, “Yeah, be a good girl, Lea Reynolds. Let’s wait quietly for your mommy to come out, okay?”
“Okay!”
The little girl stopped crying loudly, but her hands were still clenched tightly
Just then, a nurse rushed in and reported, “This is bad; our blood supply is running low. We don’t have the right blood type for the patient!”
A doctor, sweating profusely, came out. He took off his mask and took a deep breath, “How could the hospital run out of blood at this time? Call other nearby hospitals and get some over here!”
The nurse also came out, looking worried, “We’ve already tried, but no nearby hospitals have the right blood type either!”
The doctor frowned, “What are we going to do then? The patient is in critical condition and needs a blood transfusion immediately!”
Lea, who was waiting at the door for her mother, heard this. She quickly rolled up her sleeve, revealing her little arm, and stepped forward, “Sir, ma’am, please take my blood. My blood type is the same as my mom’s! I want to save my mom!”
The doctor looked down at the little girl, filled with sympathy, but regretfully told her, “Kid, we can’t use blood from immediate family members”
Ellinor walked over and asked calmly. “What’s her mother’s blood type?”
A nurse nearby answered, “RH negative!”
“I am RH negative, take mine.”
The doctor looked at her in slight surprise, “May I ask, what’s your relationship with the patient inside?”
