Director Zhang had initially been checking on another patient but when he heard that the severely anorexic lady in Ward 3 wanted to eat something, he immediately went over to have a look.
He had done a lot of research on the severely anorexic patient of Ward 3 before and also looked at several similar cases from other countries. His final conclusion was that it was a special illness that was more than just anorexia. It could be compared to cancer and it could be even scarier than cancer.
If cancer was discovered in the mid-stage, the patient could still live for a period of time. However, Wang Lili had contracted this illness only for three months. A typical anorexic patient would have a transition period of about one to two years but Wang Lili had lost so much weight in just three months. There were similar cases in medical history but almost all of the patients ended up dying.
The chance of death was almost 100%.
