Hurry up and draw the blood! Julia has relapsed and is in need of a blood transfusion!” Sophia Yancey paid little attention to her unconscious biological daughter in the hospital bed as she urgently hastened the doctor, who was holding a blood collection bag. The doctor explained hesitantly, “Mrs. Yancey, Ms. Cecilia Yancey has already lost a significant amount of blood and still hasn’t regained consciousness. Drawing more blood from her would be harmful to her.” “It’s only 400 ml, and this country girl is in good health. She’ll be all right.” “But Ms. Cecilia Yancey already had 400 ml of blood drawn three days ago, and she’s injured and losing more blood today. If we draw another 400 ml from her, it could be life–threatening. The most we can do is 200 ml.” Hearing this, Sophia remained unfazed and even grabbed the doctor’s collar, scolding angrily, “Enough with this nonsense. Just get it done!” In her view, drawing blood from Cecilia Yancey would, at worst, leave the latter weakened. But if they didn’t give Juliana Yancey a blood transfusion immediately, Juliana would be in unbearable pain. Though Cecilia lay on the hospital bed, unable to open her eyes, she was conscious of her surroundings. A chilling emptiness gnawed at her heart as she listened to her biological mother’s heartless words. She had been switched at birth with Juliana and had only reunited with the Yancey family three years ago.
