"Dr. Thompson, I need to ask you something." "Sure, go ahead." "As my condition progresses... will I lose my hair too? Will it fall out completely?"

"Tracy, instead of wasting your there, why don't you go buy smedicine? If his grandparents are punishing him physically, at least En you'll have something to treat his wounds afterward.” With that, she pried Tracy's grip off and turned to leave.
