Lev the Start of Everything in Between

As Pregnant

As pregnant

Lev's pregnancy had progressed with mounting complications. The initial excitement had given way to growing concern as the reality of carrying twins began to take a toll on her health. The risks had become more pronounced, and the delicate balance between hope and worry had shifted significantly.

Dr. Jenny, having monitored Lev's condition closely, sat down with Dr. Luke and Lev to discuss the next steps. Her expression was a blend of professional concern and empathy as she presented her recommendation.

Lev, I'm afraid the situation is quite serious," Dr. Jenny began gently. "Given the complications associated with carrying twins, I strongly suggest considering terminating one of the babies. The risk to your health is significant, and it could endanger your life if we proceed with both."

Lev's eyes widened with a mix of fear and determination. "I don't want to terminate either of them. I want to keep both of my babies. Please, Doctor, help me find a way to keep them both."

Dr. Jenny looked at her with compassion. "We can attempt to keep both, but there's a considerable risk that you could face severe complications, potentially even death."

Lev's resolve was unwavering. "If that's the case, I choose my twins. I want to give them the best chance possible, even if it means facing those risks."

Dr. Luke, his face etched with concern, took Lev's hand. "Lev, please don't make any hasty decisions. I can't bear the thought of losing you. Let's consider other options first. I need to find a way to ensure your safety and that of our babies."

Dr. Jenny nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. "I have an alternative suggestion. I know a renowned specialist in Canada who deals with complicated pregnancies like yours. The colder climate there can sometimes help mitigate certain risks associated with pregnancy complications. If you're open to it, I can arrange an appointment with her."

Lev and Dr. Luke exchanged hopeful glances. The idea of seeking expertise in another country offered a glimmer of hope amidst the uncertainty.

"Thank you, Dr. Jenny," Dr. Luke said, his voice filled with gratitude. "We'll consider this option seriously."

Dr. Jenny promised to arrange the necessary appointments and provide all the information needed for their journey to Canada. She reassured them that she would be available to support them throughout the process.

As they left Dr. Jenny's office, Lev and Dr. Luke felt a mix of relief and trepidation. The road ahead was still fraught with challenges, but the prospect of expert care and the possibility of a safer outcome gave them renewed hope.

The decision to travel to Canada was not made lightly, but it was a step they were willing to take in order to give their twins the best chance while safeguarding Lev's health. The journey ahead would be difficult, but with the support of their dedicated doctor and the hope of better care, they faced the future with cautious optimism.

The next day, Lev and Dr. Luke boarded Dr. Luke's private plane, their hearts a mix of hope and apprehension as they flew to Canada. The flight was smooth, but the weight of the situation pressed heavily on them. As they landed, they knew they were about to face the next critical step in their journey.

Upon arrival, they were swiftly escorted to the hospital where Dr. Samantha, the renowned specialist, awaited them. The hospital was a state-of-the-art facility, exuding a sense of calm efficiency. Dr. Samantha greeted them in the lobby with a reassuring smile, her demeanor both professional and compassionate.

Good morning," Dr. Samantha said, extending her hand. "I'm Dr. Samantha. And you must be Lev and Dr. Luke. It's nice to meet both of you."

Lev and Dr. Luke shook hands with her, their nerves palpable. "Thank you for seeing us on such short notice," Lev said, her voice steady despite the anxiety she felt.
