From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea )



Dr. Marshall visited Tanya every day, his spirits lifting as he saw her showing signs of improvement. He was counting the days to the tests a week later.

If those tests came back showing no signs of cancer in Tanya and the other two patients, it would mark the highlight of his career.

He dreamed of his hospital being the first in the world to cure cancer!

Not just Tanya, but her roommates, Emily and Sarah, also felt a surge of vitality returning to them.

This left the other patients, who hadn't undergone the treatment, anxious and green with envy.

Could it be true? Were they really getting better?

"Hey, kiddo, you're really all better?" Callie, the woman in the next bed, couldn't help but ask.

Tanya nodded, "Yeah! Callie, I feel like I've got a new lease on life."

Callie bit her lip, looking a bit embarrassed, "Um, could you... maybe talk to your friend about getting me in for that surgery too?"

The woman on the other side piped up, "Me too, please!"C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Tanya shook her head sadly, "I'm afraid that's not possible anymore. The treatment was only available for five people, and since you guys passed, it went to others."

Hearing this, both women's faces fell.

Regret washed over them.

"But don't worry," Tanya continued, "in a few days, after my final tests show I'm fully recovered, I'm sure the hospital will start producing more of the treatment. Then, there'll be a chance for everyone."

Callie fretted, "But there are so many people out there with cancer! Will the hospital even be able to get to us in time?" She regretted her initial hesitation; she could have been on the mend like Tanya, free from the clutches of her disease.

Regret was in the air, but time waits for no one.

And just like that, a week whizzed by.

Early in the morning, the Smith family was there with Tanya for her tests.

Lying in the MRI scanner, Tanya's heart raced with anxiety.

Dr. Marshall and Nurse Abbey stood by, equally anxious.

This was a make-or-break moment.

They had to beat cancer.

Anthea was the only one who seemed unfazed, engrossed in her smartphone.

Soon, the radiologist, Dr. Nelson, came out with the MRI results.

Dr. Marshall rushed over, "Dr. Nelson, what's the verdict?"

Dr. Nelson was practically vibrating with excitement, "It's a miracle, Dr Marshall! An absolute miracle! The patient is completely normal again! Not a trace of infection in the lungs!"

UMS

"Really?" Dr. Marshall's eyes brimmed with tears of joy.

"Really!" Dr. Nelson handed over the MRI report, "See for yourself!"

Mike, Linda, and their children, overwhelmed with joy, showered Anthea with gratitude.

Dr. Marshall, trembling, took the report, "Immediately! Call all the department heads for an emergency meeting!"

"Right away."

Dr. Marshall then turned to Anthea bowing deeply, "Ms. Johnson, on behalf of all cancer patients, I thank you! You've given them a second chance at life!"

"This is what we do as healers," Anthea replied, "I've shared everything with Nurse Abbey. You two can coordinate the next steps. If any issues arise, Abbey knows how to reach me."

"Thank you!" Dr. Marshall repeated his thanks.

In the office.

When the assistant notified the doctors of the meeting, confusion reigned.

What was so urgent?

Susie squinted, her mind racing to today being Tanya's test day.

Could something have gone wrong?

Yes, that must be it.

With a sneer, she looked up at the assistant, "Is this about those cancer patients?"

The assistant nodded, "Yes! All three cancer patients are fully recovered! The director has called for a meeting to discuss organizing a press conference!"
