Two weeks after the devastating news, the Luos had to check Luo Xue back at the hospital, where she was admitted into the long term ward.

"Mr Luo can I have a moment of your time?"

Dr Qu Xiang, the oncologist had a chart of Luo Xue in his hand, while facing her husband. Behind them was a woman who appeared very gaunt and had lost not only a lot of weight, but also her hair.

"Yes Doctor Qu?"

"As you know, Mrs Luo doesn't have much time to live, the cancer cells are spreading more rapidly than was first predicted. We have to keep her in here for close observation."

"Doctor since you said that my wife doesn't have much time left, isn't it best that we move her back home where my granddaughter and I can take care of her?"
