But before Raegan could complete her thoughts…
Plop! Gerda collapsed onto her knees.
Tears flowed down her cheeks as Gerda implored, “Raegan, you mustn’t leave Henley now. He needs you. He won’t easily accept the situation.
If something happens to my son, I couldn’t bear to live.”
Raegan, startled by Gerda’s sudden breakdown, quickly moved to assist her.
Around them, onlookers, including medical staff, gave disapproving looks.
Struggling to help Gerda to her feet, Raegan’s own eyes brimmed with tears.
“Please, take a seat first to talk it through.”
Unexpectedly, Gerda not only refused to get up but also called for Henley’s father.
“Come here. Ask Raegan not to leave Henley.”
Raegan was at a loss for words. She tried to compose herself, searching for the right response in this overwhelming situation.
Henley’s father’s presence brought some semblance of order to the situation.
“What are you doing?” he asked Gerda.
He helped Gerda back to the bench, where she continued to weep.

Raegan shook her head, showing her understanding.
“It’s alright. I can’t imagine how hard this must be for you all.”
Understanding the gravity of the circumstances, she knew no one could stay calm.
Henley’s father spoke calmly.
“Raegan, there might still be hope for Henley. I’ve contacted some specialists abroad. There are success stories. Amputation isn’t the only path, though the chances are small.
But we must hold onto hope, shouldn’t we?”
A flicker of hope ignited in Raegan’s heart. She quickly responded “Of course. You shouldn’t give up if there’s even a slight chance.”
