Old Mike, who was sitting next to Yang Jing, heard everything Yang Jing had just said. He was not a fool. After hearing these words, he immediately understood what the boss wanted to do.
Although I don’t know why the boss did this, there is no doubt that it was Vivian’s illness that prompted him to make such a decision in a very short time.
Old Mike hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "Cole, thank you so much, thank you for everything you have done for Vivian."
Yang Jing patted Old Mike's arm and said, "Mike, you don't have to thank me. These are what I should do. In fact, I am not sure whether my acupuncture can cure Vivian, so I made two preparations."
After a pause, Yang Jing continued, "Last year, I saw an introduction about Brian Drucker in a magazine. I had a very good impression of him. And I have a hunch that if anyone in the world can develop a better drug to treat leukemia, it must be Drucker. You also know that I trust my intuition very much, so since I have this intuition, I would feel bad if I don't try it."
Old Mike nodded silently.
The convoy soon arrived at LaGuardia Airport. The group got off the car and quickly boarded the plane through the VIP channel. After waiting for a short while, the tower gave the order to take off.
It is 2,300 kilometers from New York to Houston. At the speed of the Gulfstream, the plane landed steadily at Houston Intercontinental Airport in more than three hours. This airport will be renamed "Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport" in 1997 to commemorate President Bush, who has not yet stepped down.
Nathan Brown contacted the reception staff in Houston through the phone on the plane long before the plane took off, so after getting off the plane, a convoy of four bulletproof Mercedes-Benzes was already waiting outside the terminal hall.
No matter Yang Jing or Old Mike, they are now worthy of such a large-scale trip, especially since Yang Jing, the boss of the Dragon Fund, almost died in a plane crash a few years ago, so the senior management of the Dragon Fund attaches great importance to safety. Otherwise, Yang Jing would not have established the Dark Shield Security Company.
With strong financial resources, Dark Shield Security Company has only been established for a few years, but in these few short years, Dark Shield Security Company has developed to a very large scale. However, this security company has not surfaced, but is still lurking underwater. Only a few people know that there is a very strong security company under the name of KY Investment Fund.
Currently, Dark Shield’s main task is to protect the personal safety of the middle and senior management of the Dragon Fund. Of course, the company’s daily security work is also the responsibility of Dark Shield.
The convoy quickly merged into the traffic flow, then headed south, across downtown Houston, and arrived at the Texas Medical Center more than an hour later.
The Texas Medical Center is a dedicated medical service area that concentrates a large number of hospitals and medical service institutions, from children's hospitals to general hospitals to veterans hospitals. Almost all the medical institutions you can know can be found here.
The famous MD Anderson Cancer Center is located here.
In a single high-end ward on the ninth floor of the Anderson Cancer Center's ward building, Yang Jing met Vivian, who was in good spirits.
It has been just over a month since she was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia, and Vivian's leukemia is in the early stages, so she has not started chemotherapy but is instead using medication.
However, the drugs currently used to treat leukemia, whether it is Myleran tablets or hydroxyurea sulfate, have great toxic side effects. Even with drug treatment, the harm to patients is relatively large.
However, compared to old Mike, who was almost mentally collapsed, Vivian, who was seriously ill, seemed very cheerful. This 60-year-old woman was much stronger than her weak appearance.
Seeing her boss walk into the ward accompanied by her husband, Vivian was stunned for a moment, then she put the magazine aside and sat up, smiling and said, "Cole, why are you here? I told Mike not to bring you here. You are so busy, how can you waste your time with me?"
Yang Jing took two quick steps and came to Vivian. He sat on the chair next to the bed and said with a smile, "Vivian, what you said is wrong. I was away from home and didn't return to New York before, so they couldn't contact me. So I didn't know you were sick. Now that I know, you have to come and visit me, right?"
Vivian smiled and said nothing more. Everyone was already here, and there was really no point in saying those polite words.
"Well, how do you feel now?"
"What else can I do? It is what it is. I'm afraid even God can't do anything about this disease. I can only fight it." Vivian was not discouraged. Instead, she seemed to be in a good mood.
Seeing that Vivian was in a good mood, Yang Jing felt relieved.
In fact, people with this terminal illness are not necessarily incurable. The reason why many people with this terminal illness die quickly is not caused by the disease itself, but because the patients are scared to death by themselves.
Mentality is extremely important for a patient. A terminally ill patient with a good mentality may be able to live for several years. On the contrary, if the patient has a bad mentality, he may not even live for three months.
