You cannot be a donor for your sister. I can't? Because you're pregnant. What? Are you serious? Yes. Sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear. No, no, it's good news. It's the best news that you could have given me. It just means I won't be able to save my sister. A woman passed out on the roadside due to heat stroke. Passers-by took her to the hospital. The doctors gave her emergency cooling treatment and contacted her family. However, not long after, Weber saw that woman at the hospital reception. I need to get you into bed. I beg your pardon? Well, you can't leave. You've barely been hydrated. I'm surprised you're still on your feet. Oh, nurse. Wait, wait, no, I'm not Chelsea. I'm Chandler, her sister. We're twins. I just got that, yeah. Then the doctors told the two sisters the test results. Chelsea's liver was failing because of the high body temperature. In the worst case scenario, she might need a liver transplant. But Chandler wasn't too worried because they were twins. she could be the perfect donor for Chelsea. Chelsea had a sudden seizure. After examination, the doctors found her liver was failing faster. They had to do a liver transplant as soon as possible Naturally Chandler became the top choice on her sister donor list But the result was disappointing Chandler was unexpectedly found to be pregnant Sorry if that not what you wanted to hear No, no, it's good news. Just means I won't be able to save my sister. Since the hospital didn't have a liver available, the doctors could only try to buy time until a usable liver came along. We might already have one. Oh, hell no! Our patient is in acute failure. The liver coming to June is a perfect match. I checked. Bailey said that liver had been allocated and the surgery was already scheduled. Gray said if Chelsea needed that liver, without it, she wouldn't even make it through tomorrow. Damn it. Damn it. Gray, she's been on the list three years. Which means she's very strong and she can wait. Our patient will die in hours. She needs this. I know she does. So does Granny June. Just this morning, when the old lady learned she'd finally got a liver, she was very happy. But when Bailey told her Chelsea was in urgent need of this liver, she fell silent. Her family members thought it was unfair. Bailey told her if she chose to give up, when the next liver became available, she'd be the first candidate. And he's going to get a little today.
