“Branwen, hi, it’s Dr. Chiang. Listen, I couldn’t stop thinking about what you asked of me. Playing it over in my head again and again, unsure whether I’d done the right thing. You seemed in such a dark place, and, truthfully, I’d never forgive myself if something bad did happen. So I explained the situation to my wife, and she’s willing to perform the procedure pro bono. Can you be in Newport this Friday afternoon? Give me a call back when you can.”
