"Thank you, Doctor," Yangyang's Mom said, both pleased and resigned, after hearing what she said. She was a long-term patient and had long come to terms with her condition. Her only worries were her elderly parents and her underage son. She was also concerned about the young girl in the next room who had just been admitted with a serious illness. Ultimately, she was a very kind person.
Xie Wanying consoled Yangyang's Mom, "Like you, she needs to go through a psychological process."
If a person found out they had a serious disease, psychologically, they needed a process to accept reality. Li Yaxi was typically in the first stage, anxiety, unease, fear, super tense, like a frightened bird. Yangyang's Mom was in the fifth stage, accepting reality, ready to face death at any moment, and yet full of hope for life, refusing to give up easily.
