The next morning, after having breakfast, Patrick, accompanied by Camdyn, went to the surgery site that Aimee had prepared before.
Before Patrick entered the operating room, he held Camdyn’s hand and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I will come out fine.”
Aimee also said, “Grandpa, you can rest assured that Dr. Dettlaff is here.”
Dr. Dettlaff also said, “Camdyn, I believe that Dr. Read and I will cooperate perfectly, and you have to believe in us.”
Camdyn really wanted to tell them at this moment that he believed them, but his hands kept shaking, telling them how nervous he was.
The operation on Patrick this time was done in secret, so Camdyn didn’t even notify Casey and the others.
After they entered the operating room, Camdyn was the only one left.
Aimee was really worried, so she called Matilda and asked her to keep an eye on Camdyn.
The surgery was going to be a long one, and Aimee wasn’t sure Camdyn would hold out.
If she knew it earlier, she would have let Camdyn inform Casey and the others, so that there would be something to take care of Camdyn.
Not to delay any longer, Dr. Dettlaff and Aimee went to prepare for the operation. Ashton and Kelvin were already in the operating room, waiting to give Patrick anesthesia.
After Aimee and Dettlaff went into surgery, Patrick’s anesthesia was not yet effective.
She walked over, stood beside Patrick, and said softly, “Relax and trust me wholeheartedly, okay?”
Patrick responded, but gradually lost his consciousness at the moment.
He closed his eyes and fell into a coma.
Dr. Dettlaff then said, “You should have planned to operate on him without anesthesia before. Why did you change your decision temporarily?”
Aimee said, “His physical condition was not very good before. If he wants to be cured quickly, it is best to let him feel the pain, so as to help us judge the condition of the nerves. However, after treating him during this period, the neurons have been repaired and there is no need for him to suffer anymore.”
Dr. Dettlaff said, “Is it unnecessary, or you can’t bear it?”
In fact, he knew very well that if they wanted to complete the operation quickly and achieve the best result, then it was best for Patrick to wake up and cooperate with their operation.
However, now Aimee had changed the operation strategy, so that their operation time had to be extended, which may take double or even three times longer than the previous operation.
In this way, the effect may not be able to achieve the previous plan, and it will only increase their work.
Aimee did this, so to speak, it was a thankless task.
However, she did it anyway.
It was reasonable for Dr. Dettlaff to have such doubts.
Aimee raised her eyes and glanced at Dr. Dettlaff. Seeing him looking at her like an old father, she felt a little helpless.
Could it be that he thought she was lovestruck and worried about Patrick, so she would cause trouble for himself?
Indeed, she did this for Patrick’s consideration, but the big premise was that Patrick’s body can support such a plan, and he had adjusted himself to a perfect physical fitness.
Aimee would not bear to let him suffer.
Not to mention…
Aimee looked at Dr. Dettlaff and said, “Dr. Dettlaff, are you doubting my medical skills?”
Dr. Dettlaff was taken aback. Hearing Aimee’s arrogant speech, for a moment, he really couldn’t answer.
He naturally trusted Aimee’s medical skills 100%, and also believed that she could complete this operation perfectly.
Aimee stopped gossiping with Dr. Dettlaff, turned serious, and began to operate on Patrick.
The operation involved making an incision on Patrick’s back and repairing the spine. This was a meticulous and difficult process. Every movement must be highly concentrated, and the hands cannot relax for a moment.
Ever since Aimee entered the operation state, only light breathing could be heard in the operating room, and no one dared to disturb her, for fear of disrupting Aimee’s movements.
However, one of the reasons that made them more focused was that Aimee’s surgical technique was really superb. Every movement of her was like an art. It seemed that it was not an operation, but a performance.
If Dr. Dettlaff hadn’t been in the middle of the operation, he would have raised his arms and screamed.
Finally, after thirteen hours of long restoration, Aimee completed the first and most important step of Patrick’s operation.
Next, it was the second stage, which was used as support for subsequent rehabilitation training.
This step was done by Dr. Dettlaff.
It was not that Aimee hadn’t gone through a major operation, but at this moment, she still felt a little tired.
The high level of concentration made her every movement seem to be fixed. Under such high-intensity movements, her physical strength was about to be exhausted. She was supported by her nervous state, allowing her to persist until the end of the operation.
Finally, the last step.
Suture.
At this step, Aimee originally wanted Ashton to do it. Although her tenth discipline sometimes seemed very unreliable, he can be said to be her best student in terms of suture technology.
However, when Ashton was about to do it, Aimee stopped him.
“I’ll do it,” Aimee said.
Somehow, Aimee didn’t want anyone else to leave marks on Patrick’s body.
Even if it was just because of the operation, some marks had to leave on his body.
Moreover, if she sutured it herself, it will be more beautiful.
Ashton blinked blankly, and for a moment, he even wondered if he was rejected by his teacher.
He called out tentatively, ” Aimee…”
Before he could finish his words, Kelvin pulled him aside.
Ashton couldn’t understand what Aimee was thinking, but Kelvin and Dr. Dettlaff knew it clearly.
Why else? It was the damn possessiveness.
Kelvin never imagined that Aimee had reached such a level for Patrick. It was fine to guard against women, but now she even guards against men.
He glanced at Aimee, but didn’t say anything after all.
