Urgent Patient - The Merchant (Part 7)

It has been a week since Han had dosed Erix with Penicillin. As a result, Erix's Tetanus had been cured. You would expect this news to ease Han, but he was anxious since the time for the Surgery was getting closer and closer as the days went by. 

Today, was a critical day for Erix's case since it was the Merchant's final opportunity to decide whether to proceed with the risky procedure.

Presently, in the Ward. Han was checking Erix's condition to see if theirs's been any improvement. Han stood beside Erix and felt his pulse. 'Though the Tetanus has been cured, Erix is still in grave danger. His pulse isn't looking so good. We have to do the procedure in the next two days or so for him to have even a 40% chance of survival', thought Han with a grave expression. Despite feeling ashamed, he had to admit his lackluster skills had decreased the survival rate.

"Is it bad?" asked Erix as he chuckled, noticing the devastating look on the Physician's face.
