I would suggest we wait for a few months,” Dr. Gomez had conveyed, and Xavier cast a glance at Eva, who sat there calmly, absorbing every word.Dr. Gomez continued, sharing insights into his experiences, mentioning the youngest age he had operated on a similar case–a child aged six. He expressed his preference for waiting a few more weeks, allowing time for preparation,both in terms of Daisy’s physical condition and her overall well–being. Eva nodded in understanding. “In the meantime, she’ll remain here at the hospital until the time of surgery.
