"Old lady, that shouldn't be a problem as long as you cooperate and work closely with us on your treatment."
From Grandma's perspective, everything the doctor said sounded like a lie. Exasperatedly, she said, "Doctor, I'm a patient and I have the right to know about my condition. Please be honest and tell me the truth. Look, my son is also here. Please tell us…."
"Yes, Doctor. Please tell us."
Since Lu Jijun also asked him to speak the truth, the doctor could do nothing else but explain Grandma's condition in detail.
The doctor didn't exaggerate the seriousness of Grandma's condition. Instead, he spoke plainly and in detail about her illness, including some of its features and some symptoms to look out for in the later stages.
When all was said and done, Lu Jijun thanked the doctor and helped Grandma out of the doctor's office.
