Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1807: Chapter 1806: Protect the Big or Protect the Small

”No. Your wife is experiencing complications during childbirth. Right now, you must decide whether to save the mother or the child!” the nurse said regretfully.

”What?” Tian Niu felt as if he’d been struck by lightning, as though someone had just hit him over the head with a club. ”How could it be a difficult birth? How could this happen?”

Duan Aihua’s head buzzed the moment she heard that Gu Shuangshuang was in danger. She rushed forward and grabbed the nurse’s hand tightly. ”Don’t say that to me! I can’t take it! I want both the mother and the child! Both of them!”

”That’s not realistic. The mother’s contractions have already weakened significantly. Her strength is completely drained. If this continues, the child will undoubtedly die from suffocation! The mother’s condition is also very grim! So, you must make a choice now!”

”No, I want both the mother and the child! I want both of them!” Duan Aihua couldn’t accept the harsh reality in front of her and suddenly broke down, sobbing uncontrollably. ”Doctor, please! Please save both the mother and the child for me!”

The nurse feared encountering such dilemmas the most. If possible, who wouldn’t want to save both the mother and the child?

But in the face of such an unlikely scenario, there was no other way.

”I’m so sorry! You must make a decision. With every second lost, the lives of both the mother and the child are slipping away!” the nurse urged anxiously.

”Cesarean section! Do surgery! Do surgery!” Tian Niu had heard Gu Shuangshuang mention before how they could cut open the belly and take the baby out. Faced with this situation, wouldn’t surgery solve the problem?

”I’m very sorry! In this situation, surgery is no longer feasible! If it were possible, we would do everything we could! But right now, you must make a decision immediately!”

”Save the mother! I want the mother!” Losing the baby would hurt, but Tian Niu couldn’t bear to lose his wife even more.

He couldn’t live without Gu Shuangshuang, and a child born without a mother couldn’t survive either.

”You’re incompetent! Completely incompetent! I brought my healthy loved one to your hospital, and yet you couldn’t save both the mother and the child...” Duan Aihua cried so hard her voice cracked.

”Save the mother! Listen to me! I’ll sign and take responsibility!” Li Youjun fully understood Duan Aihua’s feelings, but things had reached the crucial tipping point. Each second wasted meant both Gu Shuangshuang and the baby faced the same deadly threat.

He took the family consent form the nurse handed him and signed his name in the space designated for the patient’s father.

”My grandchild! My little heart and soul...” Duan Aihua clutched her chest tightly, crying so hard she couldn’t even make a sound anymore. ”My poor Shuangshuang...”

Tian Niu squatted on the floor, his hands tightly covering his eyes, tears streaming endlessly between his fingers. ”How did this happen? Just a few hours ago, everything was perfectly fine. How did it come to this? How did it turn into a difficult birth?”

”The baby is too large! And its position isn’t ideal...” The nurse explained briefly. Hearing someone calling her from the delivery room, she quickly rushed back to assist.

Gu Shuangshuang had already exhausted all her strength and was in a semi-conscious, weakened state.

When she heard the nurse say the reasons for her complications were that the baby in her womb was too large and its position wasn’t ideal, her previously calm heart was instantly ignited with anger.

”Damn it...” Gu Shuangshuang gasped laboriously and suddenly cursed.
