Chapter 2945: I’m Willing To Be Your Eyes (1)
At first, she was worried that the child was too young and did not qualify for surgery. However, after the examinations, the conclusion was that the child could undergo surgery.
“I was too impulsive. I thought that no matter what, I had to seize this opportunity, so I didn’t think too much and signed the consent. It was only after that I realized, I was so flustered I actually hadn’t considered the surgery fees. If it wasn’t for Mr. Qin’s care, maybe… sigh…”
“Are there very few cornea donors?” Hua Jin asked out of curiosity.
Jing Qi was stunned for a moment before nodding her head. “Yes, the demand makes supply very tight. After all, there are a lot of people who have eye diseases, but very few donors. I heard that in the past, the source of the corneas were the death row criminals. But now, the law does not allow it. You can say that voluntary donors are very rare.”
Hua Jin was taken aback. “If it’s my child, I’d be willing to exchange my cornea for it.”
“Of course!” Jing Qi smiled. “When the child was born, we found out there was something wrong with his eyes and a cornea transplant was needed. I asked if he could use my corneas, but the doctor said that this is not permitted by law, it’s illegal!”
“Why?”
“Because a living person is not allowed to donate corneas. In other words, even if I wanted to, the hospital has no right to perform such a surgery.”
“Why is that so?!” Hua Jin was agitated. “Why is it illegal? Why can’t a willing person donate?”
“No, it’s the same in other countries. It’s unfair to strip the cornea from the eyes of a living person and exchange the person’s sight for another person’s sight.”
Hua Jin was stunned and he felt his chest tighten.
…
He initially had plans to wait until Yun Shishi could undergo surgery before he’d go to the hospital to remove his cornea in exchange for her sight.
In the past, he had asked around indirectly, and found out that by donating one cornea, two people could see.
However, after hearing from Jing Qi that living people could not donate corneas, he felt utterly disappointed.
After leaving the ward, Hua Jin made his way to the entrance of the hospital absent-mindedly. He took a taxi to Yun Shan Shi Yi.
Yun Shishi had given him the key to Yun Shan Shiyi. He opened the door and quietly walked in. The first thing he saw was Yun Shishi carrying a spray can and groping her way to the back garden.
He followed behind her quietly and saw that she was walking very slowly.
The servant followed carefully next to her, not daring to reach out to support her.
Yun Shishi had a strong personality and made it a point to be independent. Unless it was something extremely difficult where she had no choice but to seek help from the servants.
Mu Yazhe had carefully rearranged the furnishings in the room. The angular furniture was especially wrapped in soft cushions on the corners.
He was very meticulous, anxious that, not being able to see, she would get hurt or walk into something when she moved around the house.
Hence, the corners of the table and the corners of the room were covered with soft cushions.
This way, even if she were to walk into something, it wouldn’t hurt.
Seeing that he had arrived, the servant was about to announce his presence when he immediately shushed her, signaling her not to alert the others.
Given this, the servant moved slowly to the doorway. She lightly crossed the threshold and stepped into the back garden. She made her way to the flower bed and meticulously watered the roses.
When Hua Jin came to the doorway, he saw her carefully supporting a stalk of flower as she watered it nonchalantly.
