Reoccurrence
Chapter 4
Another month later, Marc is still okay. His cancer seems to everyone to be in remisssion, it seems like the Chemotheraphy has helped, despite making him sick, but Lu knows as a doctor that things can and do change and that the type of cancer any type for that matter can take on a life of it's own without warning.
While her son is fighting for life in the hospital where she works, Lu is trying so hard to be strong and go on with her life and her work as a doctor, but right now at this point all she can do and think about is her son, "will he live"? she asks herself while in her office catching up on files and charts from the last few months.
Usually Dr. Jackson would let Lu take some time off because of what was going on with her son, but he didn't because he'd only found about what was up with Marc yesterday morning when he had asked Dana why Lu had not been working in the last few months, but he was not expecting Dana to tell him that Marc was very sick and could possibly die in the months to come.
Later that day, Dr. Jackson sits in office thinking about his c-workers son, he then gets up from his chair and walks out of his office, into Lu's. He lightly knocks on her office door, waits for her to respond, finally after a few seconds of her not responding to his knock he decides that maybe he should go to see if she's alright.
So he does, he finds on her couch crying. He waits to see if she notices him, then he finally speaks to her softly "Dr. Delgado"? He says as he sits down on the couch next to her. "Dr. Jackson What.... What are you doing in her I thought you were at a board meeting or something"? Lu asks " I was, but.....Well I just wanted to see you were doing, Dana told me about Marc, how's he doing"? He asks. "Well uh- he's fine for right now, but I have this feeling that the cancer may be back" she says with emotion.
Well, lets hope that it doesn't and that he'll be okay" He said. "Dr. Delgado, I'am going to go back up to my office now, to finsh some paperwork that I need to get, but If you need anything, please feel free to call me or come up to my office, alright" Okay, sure thanks, Dr. Jackson" No problem, Dr. Delgado oh and If you need to, please take some personal leave, whenever and however long you need to, you'll still be payed and won't be fired, I understand".
As he gets up to leave and go to his office to do more paperwork. "Okay, Thanks again, Dr. J" Your Welcome, I know how hard this has been on you and I think that you should have a break from everything especially work" Yes I know, thanks" Dr. Jackson then walks of Lu's office.
A couple minutes later Lu, had fallen asleep on her couch in her office, just then Dana comes rushing into her office "Lu....."? she said quietly, Lu awoke in a flash, she slowly rose to a standing position with her eyes focused fully on Dana and what she was about to say.
"Lu....I...Just got Marc's test results back and it looks the cancer has returned, but now it's worse than it had been before". Dana says trying to at least let Lu in on what's going on with her son also at the same time trying to confort her in some way too, without trying to say that Marc would die.
"Dana now your telling me that my son's cancer has returned, and now you tell me that it's gotten worse too" Is that right"? she questions. "Yes, that would be right, look if there's anything I can do just.....Lu interrupted Dana "yeah I know Dana, call or come to your office, I get it, I will thanks, you can leave now I'am fine". Says Lu as she sits back on her couch knowing that she couldn't let her son die and he wouldn't if she could help it. She wasn't going to let him die, she knew if he it couldn't fight it, then she had to do it for him, but how?.....She thought as she then difted back off to sleep with that question in her head and on her mind.
