Evelyn has been sick for 2 months now.. she been diagnosed with a heart problem..
Frantically searchin high and low for a suitable donor for her... but alas all failed..
The doctor was a patient nice guy. He looked at Evelyn gravely...
"Not much of a problem.. we have her fixed up in no time.. the right donor just have to come in sooner or later.."
As vexed as I can be.. I began looking around for a suitable donor.. even on the internet..
Then it came! exhurbently joyous I was..
As I consulted with the doctor.. " What do you think? You think it can work?'
In the background, the nurse was playing with her new gadget... a handphone apparently... and watching "Scrub"..
a new TV drama ala ER with a new concept...
" Well we can try.. it's gonna be a complicated process.. we need many tools.. I have to consult the Head first.."
the reply was what I expected.. but what else can I do?.. Looking at Evelyn suffering like that really pains me..

I arrived at the hospital early the next day... " Any good news Doc?" I gravefully asked..hopefully for a new light..
"Sorry manz. its harder then I thought." the reply sent millions of sharpnel into my hearts... instanteuosly my heart broke into
million pieces.. "it can't be .. It's can't be " I thought to myself....

As the days goes by.. I sat by Evelyn watching her suffer.. I know so much that she wants to be out there breathing in the fresh air... running around..
The phone rang.. " Hello.. I got good news for you.. we have found a suitable donor for her.." It was the doctor.. I knew he can do it.. they finally found a
suitable donor.. !! Juberliant!

The operation took place.. it was a painstaking 36 hours operation.. as i sat and waited.. I helped the doctor with whatever I can..
48 hours later.. I was back at the the hospital..
The doctor came and greeted me with a warm smile.. then i knew it was ok..
He showed me the way to Evelyn..
What a beauty she is.. lying there..
I stroke her forehead... then I asked if she felt better..
She had never felt better.. I brought her out to fields..
She was so happy.. never been happier before..... for 2 months she was sick..
Now she is healthy.. up and running..

The doctor offered me to bring Evelyn down tomorrow.. I accepted readily..
We will all witness how happy Evelyn will be.. and the doctor will be there to monitor her..
That took a big load off my mind..
Before I left the hospital.. the nurse passed me the prescription..
"Here! remember to give her proper care and don't neglect her.. "

As I slowly unfold the piece of paper... my hands were trembling..
like a kid with a new toy.. I slowly unfold it.. slowly reading it..
I saw the figures...... I fainted.........................................................................
