The doctors launched their line of inquiry, echoing the questions previously posed to Pradeep. Their investigation was routine until they discovered Lily’s recent childbirth, a mere three weeks prior. In just a few seconds, Pradeep discerned a distinct change in their expressions. Grasping the seriousness of the situation, they wasted no time in arranging a series of tests and gathering samples of Lily’s blood for further lab analysis.
As the tension mounted, Lily and Pradeep anxiously awaited the test results, hoping for some hint as to Lily’s potential condition. However, the doctors remained noncommittal, avoiding any direct answers. To exacerbate the stressful wait, Pradeep received an ill-timed text from his father: they were unable to continue looking after the twins.
