Off is on the brink of insanity.
"I don't care if I have bring my wife to the other face of the world. I'm not losing my wife, Non." Off said in a harsh tone, silencing all the doctors seated on the board room.
Dr. Non, director of the most prestigious private hospital in Bangkok could only stare at his friend with sympathy.
"Look, Off. I'm being as honest as I can be. Your wife has lupus and the chances of having complications while she undergoes chemotherapy is high."
"Do it. Whatever it is that you need to do to seize whatever chance my wife has, do it. I can't lose Mild, Non. I can't lose my wife." Off said, this time in a pleading voice.
"I know someone who could help." Dr. Jane, Head of the Oncology department volunteered. "There is one Thai doctor who specialized in autoimmune diseases like Lupus."
"No. Anyone but him. I'd rather fly to America or Europe to get my wife treated." Off may not be a doctor, but he knows the only doctor Jane could be referring to.
"He's your best chance for Mild to survive, Off. It's been seven years. Whatever happened between you and him shouldn't be more important than your wife's life." Dr Jane reasoned out.
"Don't push it, Jane." Non was quick to come to Off's defense.
Dr Jane, though, wasn't having it. "Gun Atthaphan is the only autoimmune disease doctor who handled cancer patients and helped them survived. If you want the same fate for Mild, you have to deal with Gun."
"Do you realize what you want me to do, Jane? How can I ask my ex-fiance to go back to Thailand from God knows where, to save my wife from cancer?"
