The furthest distance is not two people who are half a hemisphere apart, but you are right in front of my eyes and I can't see.
I'm still very close, but my eyes no longer see you.
Wandering in the corridors of the VIP suites, I unconsciously glanced at the names on the door of the hospital room, they must be rich people, so they are in hospital rooms like this 5-star hotel, whose name is it? It's also beautiful and has a good meaning, suddenly a familiar name that I call every day, write in my notebook every day, the name in my dreams that I always remembered for the past 2 years appears in front of my eyes - Trinh Minh Duong, my legs were so soft that I couldn't take another step, my trembling hand placed on the cold door gently pushed open the door, I saw the doctor I talked to just now talking with another doctor. : “Doctor Lam Duy, I have just had good news and bad news. Your patient Trinh Minh Duong, who is living in a vegetative state, will have a chance to be cured, I just examined a patient with a brain tumor with a heart transplant rate suitable for him, but only 1 person survived.
“Donating the right heart on a voluntary basis, your patient probably won't survive, but if he refuses to donate, so be it.” While saying that, Doctor Duy looked at the person lying on the hospital bed. It's Anh - the person I've been waiting for for the past 2 years.
I was petrified, my legs were buried, and my heart ached, making everything around me no longer clear, tears filled my eyes, and I cried before the surprise of the two doctors. I am heartbreaking. Why are you hiding from me? Why do you make me feel like you've abandoned me? Why do I only know this fact now? Countless questions ran through my mind, I couldn't stand it anymore, I ran back to the hospital bed to infect him forever but he still didn't wake up. The two doctors immediately grabbed me and pulled me out of England, not allowing me to get close to agitation. I had to run home in tears.
"Mom mom". As soon as I entered the house, I cried and rushed to find my mother
“What's the wrong girl, who made fun of you? Why are you crying?" My foster mother worried and wiped my tears.
"Why did Mr. Duong leave without both parents knowing, does he want to give up this commercial life as his parents told me?"
My mother suddenly froze, and the hand that was wiping my tears stopped slightly.
"Tell me, mother, isn't it?"
Just then, Huy suddenly entered the door, I immediately grabbed him
"Tell me, why is everyone hiding from me about Mr. Duong's existence, he's obviously at the hospital, people don't hide from me anymore"
Both Huy and his mother were surprised at my words, they were silent, looked at each other, and then looked at me again
"Okay, I'll tell you, now sit down calmly."
I obediently listened and sat down with my mother. The three of us were silent, I silently waited to hear the truth, they were silent because they didn't want to say it, Huy finally opened his mouth.
"You and Duong have been close friends since middle school when you were 12, both planned to go to the US to study, but when you appeared, Duong decided to leave me alone, stay with me, He is still studying abroad alone. About 2 years ago, he called the US and told me that he was going to the US for treatment, he had a very dangerous heart condition. But advanced America has a cure, but it's very painful, and the outcome can only be 20/80."
My tears could not help but fall, after all, the son I love the most, the one I can't live without, is carrying a disease but I am naive and ignorant.
“Actually, at first he did not intend to cure the disease, but you were the driving force that helped him decide to go to America. You are a very important person in Minh Duong's life. He was very patient, during the first few months of treatment, his body lost strength, and he was tired, but he still did not forget to text and report the situation to me, until he could not continue to fight. with a heart that can no longer listen, he begged me, please never let me know of his passing, he was afraid that I would be hurt, afraid that I would blame him for not saying he was sick and loved me, but he did everything for me, when he was about to leave this world, he told me a lot "remember, every year on his birthday, send him a present, until his birthday 25 years old, graduated from university, had a stable career, then she forgot about me and then she was allowed to stop sending gifts, I have prepared all gifts at home, please help me take care of my parents and family. baby, don't let her know this and more, I will donate my organs to the hospital to help those who are sick, I have to do some good deeds for Thu to be proud of me, baby He's someone who really likes philanthropists." We don't dare to tell her the truth, for fear that she will be sad and afraid of breaking her promise to Duong". Huy said in a choked voice and the corners of his eyes turned red.
“But fortunately, his will to live did not give up so easily. The doctor told him, that if he freezes his body, he will last for at most 5 years, waiting for a suitable donor, everyone is hoping for a miracle to happen to him, but it's been almost a year. has a suitable heart, but thanks to freezing to save his body cells, now it can only be accepted, that he will die because no one has ever volunteered his life Even if they are people with serious illnesses, even those who have had a car accident, they all want to maintain their lives even for a minute. And there is no such thing as a completely successful heart transplant, it needs a lot of compatibilities. He consulted the two doctors and brought Duong back to the country, he did not continue to freeze his body, he will be very cold, and now he can only lie on the ground, his time is also limited. not much longer. They were all just begging for a miracle.”
"Actually, my parents didn't want to tell me the truth, afraid that I would suffer, so they lied to me that Duong had gone to a place no one knew, I was afraid that you would know the pain that Duong had suffered. suffer, fear that the child will suffer even more. Daughter" mother's eyes filled with sadness, I know she is the saddest person ever, all these years have to always be happy to hide me, maybe very uncomfortable.
“So now, what about having the right heart?” My whole face was cold, I could only feel my body shaking every now and then.
“Then really miracles will come to Duong, you and your two uncles are also looking forward to it, Thu. But even so, will people accept heart donation? It's a living heart, the right heart is still beating, you see. Who would give their life for someone else?” Huy was really touched, he also cried because of his helplessness.
“I see, thank you for telling me what happened. Mom, I'm fine. I want to go back to my room to rest for a while” trying to suppress the pain, I calmly looked at my mother with a slight bow of her head.
