Chapter 286: Ge Dagen's Predicament
Now standing in front of Chen Deshuang was Ge Dagen, a man with a face full of unspeakable suffering.
He was forty-six years old this year, a rural man who married late, only managing to find a wife in his thirties.
After their marriage, Ge Dagen and his wife had a son who was now stricken with a serious illness.
Ge Dagen and his wife were both down-to-earth farmers who had hardly ever left their hometown. Before their son fell seriously ill, the furthest place the couple had visited was the county town.
Until last week, a calamity struck when their son, who was attending school, suddenly fell into an unconscious state. After being rushed to the county hospital by an ambulance (number 120), doctors at the county hospital solemnly advised them to go to the city hospital.
The final diagnosis turned out to be: cancer!
For Ge Dagen, this news was like a bolt from the blue.
