Emily not only understood nutrition, but she also knew a lot about medical care and some healing methods from the East. Her foster father and uncle had overworked themselves for their family in their youth, resulting in many chronic illnesses, especially stomach problems. They didn’t have medical insurance, and each hospital visit cost a lot of money, so William often endured the pain and didn’t go to the hospital. One day, he vomited blood, and Emily tearfully took him to the hospital for an examination. The results shocked them. William had a perforated stomach, and it had been a long time. If it got worse, it could turn into stomach cancer. William was unwilling to take leave or be hospitalized because he couldn’t afford the medical bills. He just bought some painkillers and took Emily home. Seeing William in pain every day, Emily felt very distressed. She began to study medical knowledge. She learned that stomach problems are a long-term chronic illness that cannot be completely cured by medication or surgery; it requires lifestyle and dietary adjustments to improve the body's overall immunity. So, Emily studied nutrition and some Eastern herbal remedies, trying to feed William a balanced diet and herbs to treat his stomach. After three years, William’s stomach gradually healed. Because of this, Emily became interested in nutrition and herbal medicine. Many diseases are chronic, and treating them must rely on a reasonable lifestyle and diet. So even now, she still cooks for William whenever she has the time. "I’ve studied some nutrition before, but I’m not a doctor. I’m just offering my opinion," Emily said modestly, smiling. "But I think the doctor is right. You don’t want to go to the hospital because you don’t want surgery, right? Why don’t we find a nutrition doctor for you?" Meggie listened to her and wasn’t as vehemently opposed as before, but she was still somewhat resistant. "I don’t like surgery. You young people don’t understand us older folks. Surgery is more damaging to us than you think. And I pray every day and communicate with God. If I have surgery and go unconscious, I feel like my connection with God will be broken." So that’s the reason. Alex sighed, "Mom... your connection with God won’t be easily broken." "You don’t understand my feelings," Meggie disagreed. "Forget it, I won’t argue with you. I don’t want to go to the hospital, and I don’t want surgery." Meggie’s viewpoint was clear, and Alex was helpless. Mandy said, "How about we invite a nutritionist to our home to examine you?"Alex slapped his forehead. "Right, I almost forgot. I’ll find someone to bring a nutritionist over right now." "Come back!" Meggie was angry. "You don’t know any nutritionists. How can you ensure that the person you find is what I need? I don’t want someone monitoring my life every day; it makes me very uncomfortable." The situation was at an impasse again. Meggie was a very stubborn elderly woman. Alex and Mandy didn’t dare to anger her or make decisions for her. "I..." Emily softly spoke up, "Can you let me try?" Mandy frowned, "Don’t mess around. Meggie’s body isn’t your experiment. Emily, Meggie is still ill. I’ll have the driver take you back first. You can visit again when she’s better." Mandy was driving Emily away. "Emily is my guest. I still have things to say to her. Why are you asking her to leave?" Meggie was angry. Mandy didn’t dare to speak, her face darkening rapidly as she unhappily moved to the side to stand with Sophia. Her actions showed that she wouldn’t speak further or interfere anymore. "Mandy, should I leave first?" Sophia, who had been standing like a statue, asked in a low voice. Mandy shook her head, "Don’t go yet. I wanted to send Emily away and keep you here, but I didn’t expect Meggie to like her so much. This is really strange; I’ve never seen her be so affectionate to anyone." Sophia also found it odd. Meggie’s fondness for Emily was almost blatantly obvious, simply inexplicable. Is Emily a demon? Why do so many people like her? Alex gave Emily a deep look, showing his disagreement. "Mom, Mandy cares about you. I know you like Emily, but Emily isn’t a doctor. We should find a doctor to be responsible for your health." "Let her try," Meggie took a deep breath and calmed down. "Let Emily try first. If there’s no improvement after a month, I’ll listen to you and go to the hospital." Alex was very happy. His mother was finally willing to go to the hospital. Just as Alex was about to agree, Mandy gently pulled him. Mandy frowned and shook her head. Mandy advised, "Mom, your health is very important. If anything happens to you, can Emily take responsibility?" Sophia immediately echoed, "Emily, you’ve never studied nutrition. You’ve only read a few books. How can you treat someone? Our dad would be furious if he knew." "She hasn’t studied nutrition at all?" Alex’s heart sank again, and he looked at Sophia. "Sophia, is this true?" "Of course it’s true. Emily is my cousin. We grew up together. She hasn’t studied nutrition, and she didn’t even go to college. Meggie’s health is precious and shouldn’t be used for experiments. I don’t want Meggie’s illness to worsen; I’m just worried about accidents..." Mandy nodded, "Yes, Sophia is right. Emily, it’s not that we don’t trust you, but you don’t know nutrition. Don’t be reckless, okay? You want to show off in front of Meggie, but you can’t do it this way." Emily squinted at Mandy and Sophia, smiling slightly. "Mandy is right. I was overconfident. Meggie, I just thought of a way. If you go to the hospital, someone else can serve God for you. God is loving and will understand. Mandy is thorough and patient; she can surely help you serve God well." Emily’s change of topic caught Mandy off guard. What?! Mandy to serve God in Meggie’s place. Meggie is very picky and has many rules for serving God. Mandy would go crazy.
