Listen to this chapter:

Roxanne wasted no time opening the forum Harvey had recommended.

At first glance, the forum seemed outdated. However, many posts were only minutes old, most discussing the Damaris family's upcoming medical consultation. Roxanne opened each thread and carefully reviewed its contents. Numerous forum members had attached their resumes, hoping for a chance to participate. Each applicant possessed an impressive background.

The more she read, the more Roxanne felt the pressure to excel. She didn't want to disappoint those who wouldn't have the opportunity. Only after scrolling to the very bottom did she find information about a previous Damaris family consultation, a post from an anonymous participant.

Roxanne read the post twice, committing it almost to memory. According to the anonymous doctor, the Damaris family consultations focused on congenital diseases, typically held in abandoned orphanages or children's homes, providing free three-day consultations. Participants were always highly accomplished practitioners of traditional medicine, joined by younger Damaris family members whose skills were remarkably advanced.

Over the years, countless abandoned children with congenital diseases received treatment, some even featured in newspapersโ€”though the Damaris family remained unmentioned, highlighting their understated nature.

Roxanne, a mother who had lost a child, had always held a special place in her heart for children. Learning the consultation's focus intensified her admiration for the Damaris family. Their research and resulting treatment plans for specific congenital diseases had become the gold standard in traditional medicine, benefiting tens of thousands of children annually, including those with previously intractable conditions.

This scale of impact felt almost fantastical. As Roxanne continued her research, her excitement to meet the Damaris family grew. She had personally researched some of the diseases they had treated, only to have their solutions emerge before she could achieve results. Verifying their reliability, she ceased her own research, deeply respecting the creators of these treatmentsโ€”the Damaris family.

Their enduring legacy was unsurprising, given their profound contributions to children's health. Roxanne yearned for a connection with them, feeling a unique bond stemming from her own loss. No one valued those precious lives more than she did.

For a moment, Roxanne sat in silence, reflecting on her emotions. A few minutes later, she resumed browsing, gaining a better understanding of the consultation process, vital preparation for her upcoming participation. So engrossed was she that she didn't realize it was past midnight. She finished reading around one o'clock.

Thinking of the next day's work, Roxanne reluctantly closed her laptop and left the study. After a quick wash, she went to bed, her mind still buzzing with thoughts of the medical consultation.
