Loving Prospective Sister-in-law

Hard Choice

Natalia's eyes look red from earlier and her eyes are swollen indicating that she is also as anxious as Alehandro.

"I didn't do anything. Just now we were talking for not five minutes but he whimpered in pain and fainted. I wonder how can you whose husband doesn't know your wife is sick?"

Alehandro. For a few days Mary's face was pale. She had asked him not to do any homework but Mary still refused. She did her job as a wife as usual.

Has his wife been sick for a few days but hid this from him? thought Alehandro. He is a teledor. His attention had already been seized by his mother's illness and so much work that he did not pay much attention to Mary.

A doctor came out of the IGD room.

"Mrs Cortez's husband is she here?" ask the Doctor.

"I'm Doc" Alehandro said forward. "How are my wife and daughter doing Doctor?"

"Right now is still good but .. ," the Doctor's remark came to a halt.

"But what Doctor?" natalia and Alehandro asked as they looked at each other. Their faces were both anxious and worried.

"We'd better talk about this in my room" the doctor said. Alehandro looked at Natalia.

"Let me wait for Maria here!" natalia understood Alehandro's anxiety. Alehandro pulled the two corners of his lips to the side. Smiling with sadness.

Alehandro followed the doctor into his room. His heart felt bad, pounding incredibly intensely. He's already smelled something's wrong here. But what is it he can not guess hopefully his son and wife are not in a dangerous condition. Many times Alehandro took a breath to overcome his fear.

"Please!" the doctor told Alehandro to enter his room.

Alehandro then sat in the front seat of the Doctor's desk. The doctor took a picture on the wall and brought it in front of Alehandro.

The doctor sat down in his chair and took a deep breath. Alehandro looked at every move the Doctor carefully tried to read the situation. What the doctor was going to say was not good news for him.

"Ehmm," The doctor cleared his throat for a moment before starting the conversation.

"Include me Doctor Faisal, obstetrician and obstetrician." The doctor then extended his hand to Alehandro.

"I ... ."

"Mr Alehandro Cortez owns five-star resorts and hotels in the country" the doctor said. Alehandro nodded his head. "It's nice to know you, sir."

Alehandro smiled nodding his head.

"How is my wife and daughter's condition Doctor?" alehandro asked, starting a conversation about his wife's condition.

"Before there are some things I need to ask you Mr. Alehandro as the husband of Mrs Cortez."

"Do you notice any peculiarities in your wife during her pregnancy?" ask Dr. Faisal.

"Surprisingly, I think he just has cravings like women in general, nausea, vomiting even if a little excessive," Alehandro said. Then he started to remember.

"My wife's face did look paler during this one month and I did not focus on taking care of it because I had to divide my time with a mother who had heart disease and had to be treated in the hospital during almost two weeks after that the office work that piled up made me spend more time in the office until late at night," Alehandro sighed. He admitted his innocence.

"Didn't she complain of pain in her stomach all this time?" ask Dr. Faisal again.

Alehandro's eyes widened, his face pias the question The doctor told him that Maria had been hiding her pain all this time. Alehandro swallowed his Saliva deeply. He advanced his body leaning towards that Doctor.

"What do doctors mean?" Alehandro stared intensely at the Doctor.

"It is with a heavy heart that I say that most likely your wife has a tumor in her uterus and that it is very dangerous for her and her pregnancy if not immediately removed her uterus."

The news was like a bolt of lightning in broad daylight for Alehandro. He stared in disbelief at the Doctor.

"What do you mean?" face nar Alehandro.

"Your wife has a uterine tumor and the type of tumor that is thought to affect her pregnancy is a submucosal fibroid, because this tumor can cause reduced blood flow in the tumor-free part of the uterine wall.

In pregnant women, most uterine tumors also do not cause symptoms or interfere with pregnancy so it does not require special treatment. However, in certain conditions, uterine tumors can cause problems during pregnancy.

The most common problems that can be experienced by pregnant women due to uterine tumors are premature birth, tumors closing the birth canal, breech babies, and placental abruption. These various problems can inhibit pregnant women from giving birth normally so that caesarean section becomes the method of childbirth that is considered the safest. But this will be done if your wife's gestational age is large, but your wife's pregnancy has only entered Week 17 so it is very high risk to let the fetus still grow in your wife's womb. However, we will wait for the results of further examination of how dangerous this tumor is for your wife's pregnancy. If according to the examination that I did earlier, my advice is You should abort Your wife because it is very dangerous for both lives," said the Doctor.

As long as the Doctor explained everything Alehandro could barely breathe. He just kept listening to everything. His wife's womb had to be lifted up for him to survive. Just that sentence alone could enter his mind, the other was like a song of sorrow that cut his heart.

The child is the hope of the family and the hope of his life, if taken then all his dreams will be lost and what about the condition of his mother in the future if he knows the grandson he really hopes is gone? Can his mother endure this grief? If not, then Mary's life could be in danger. He could not imagine losing the person he loved so much.

It was a difficult decision for him. He could not selfishly choose his son and endanger his wife's life.

"I would prefer my surviving wife, Doctor," Alehandro replied in a trembling voice.

"We will talk about this matter to the Mother of your future baby. Is he willing if his uterus is taken," the doctor said.

"Does that mean she can't conceive a doctor anymore?" alehandro asked with a pale face. His eyes were hot and foggy. His breath sounded already breathless.

The doctor looked at Alehandro's face. He seemed unable to say it. However, his profession demands to be honest with the patient's family.

"If the uterus is removed automatically then your wife will not be able to get offspring again" explained the Doctor.
