Als ich einen akuten Blinddarmdurchbruch hatte, waren meine Eltern, mein Bruder und sogar mein Verlobter nur damit beschäftigt, Maries Geburtstag zu feiern. Vor dem OP-Saal rief ich sie unzählige Male an, um jemanden für die Unterschrift unter die Einverständniserklärung zu erreichen. Doch sie lehnten alle brüsk ab.
