Amanda had been seriously ill since childhood.
Eventually, we reached the sentence every parent fears.
There wasn’t much more they could offer.
Then we found a hospital trying a newer treatment approach for patients like Amanda.
That was where we met Andrew.
He was part of her specialist team.
There wasn’t much more they could offer.
The first time I saw him, he stood beside Amanda’s bed reading her chart.
For a moment, he didn’t speak.
He just stared at one page.
