"So you see, Mr. Thomas suffered a severe head injury, and it resulted in a brain hemorrhage or brain hemorrhage, which is a condition that causes reduced blood flow to brain tissue. This bleeding can occur due to a rupture of a blood vessel that can occur due to various reasons, such as head injuries, blood pressure that is too high and uncontrolled, aneurysms, deformities of blood vessels, tumors, cancer, and blood disorders themselves such as hemophilia and sickle cell anemia.
"We found Mr. Thomas suffered a very strong impact so that he suffered a brain hemorrhage, all of that was judged by his history of being brought to the ER because he was unconscious after a serious accident, or we suspected that Mr. Thomas had a history of uncontrolled high blood pressure, and showed related symptoms such as sudden severe headache, seizures, weakness in limbs, nausea and vomiting, visual disturbances, difficulty speaking, amnesia, loss of balance, dizziness, etc. with the help of a CT-scan or MRI. With this examination, it can be known if there is indeed bleeding in the brain, where is the exact location, and how extensive."
The doctor took a deep breath before explaining the lag to the police, Albert and Fanny.
"At this stage, the actual treatment can vary greatly depending on the overall condition of the patient. Because of the coma is due to a brain hemorrhage and the brain hemorrhage requires surgery, then to deal with the coma, the brain hemorrhage must be treated first. However, if the bleeding is not too widespread and can be absorbed by the brain itself, and his comments were due to other reasons, for example, because a lot of toxic substances entered the brain because his kidneys were damaged, maybe surgery was not needed and only drugs that were inserted through an IV.
"Then regarding the Glasgow Comma Scale (GCS), this is a measuring tool to determine a person's level of consciousness. This measurement uses three components, namely eye, verbal and motor, each of which has a minimum value of 1 and a different maximum value. different, 4 for the eye component, 5 for the verbal component and 6 for the motor component which are then added together. So the minimum overall GCS score is 3 (because each one is at least 1/coma) and the maximum is 15 (compos mentis/fully conscious)."
The doctor sighed again, while the police and Albert did not understand what the doctor said. Only Fanny nodded her head.
"So what about my Grandpa, Doctor? Does Grandpa have to have surgery?"he doctor looked at Fanny with a surprised look because it seemed that even though she was still very young, she was the one who understood what she had just said about her grandfather's current state and condition than the two adults beside her.
"We will wait for the laboratory results first, then we can make a decision whether we need surgery or not because after the results come out we can only find out what caused your grandfather to be in a coma and what we have to do as well as how much money you have to prepare."
The doctor then asked the nurse to take the laboratory results from the examination carried out by Grandpa Thomas. A few moments later, the nurse returned and handed over a white envelope, and the doctor immediately opened the envelope and read its contents. He then looked at Fanny, Albert, and the police, who were still waiting in his room with a very detailed look.
"How is it, Doctor?"
Fanny asked impatiently. Albert and the police also immediately nodded their heads. The doctor then took a deep breath and explained Grandpa Thomas' condition as a whole. Grandpa Thomas loses one kidney because the car hit Grandpa Thomas right on the waist. Meanwhile, after being shot, Grandpa Thomas's body bounced a few meters from the scene, and his head hit the pavement, causing a brain hemorrhage.
"Therefore, we have decided to immediately carry out an operation to save Grandpa Thomas's life. The cost is very expensive because we have to do some difficult operations, especially on the head. You have to prepare a fund of 100,000$. If you want Grandpa Thomas's life to be saved, you must immediately go to the administration to pay a down payment or deposit. At least 20% of the total cost that is the patient's obligation."
Fanny was struck by lightning when she heard the considerable cost she had to pay to save her Grandpa's life. Fanny looked at Albert with teary eyes. Albert nodded his head, and they immediately said goodbye to the doctor to prepare the money. Fanny and Albert have also handed over all legal matters to the police.
"Albert, can you help me sell my house?"
Fanny asked Albert, who was very surprised when he heard that Fanny would sell the only house without thinking first.
"Fanny, I will help you find a loan for your grandfather's operating costs. But I can only try to make a deposit. For the repayment later I will seek help from my friends and also I will try my best to help you pay for Grandpa Thomas's treatment. So you don't sell your house, where do you want to live when the house is sold?"
Albert asked Fanny, who immediately shook her head. She didn't want to trouble Albert. She is a very independent girl and keeps her pride once, and she will not easily accept help from others.
"Albert, I don't want to involve you in this problem. I can handle it myself. I'd rather sleep on the storefront than receive your money especially since you got the money from borrowing everywhere. I'm sorry, but I won't accept anything from you, especially money."
Fanny took a deep breath, and she then resumed her sentence before Albert answered her words.
"If you really want to help me, help me sell my house ASAP. Or get me a $20,000 loan guaranteed on our house. I need the money urgently."
Fanny asked Albert, who could only nod. For Albert, finding a loan of 20,000$ is not difficult because he has many friends from the upper-middle class.
"Okay Fanny, you go home first and I'll tell you as soon as we get the money and we'll pay the hospital deposit for your grandfather's surgery costs."
Albert then drove Fanny home, and she immediately looked for money for Grandpa Fanny's hospital deposit.
A few moments later, Fanny had arrived at her house. She immediately said goodbye to Albert and immediately got out of Albert's car. After dropping Fanny, Albert immediately went to a wealthy friend to borrow money to guarantee Fanny's house as the girl wanted.
