Why?

"Mom, let's go over now."

"Is it time now? Oh, let's go." The district mayor's wife, Cao Lu, sat up. She felt dizzy as she gazed at the white wall and people that filled the room.

Her son, daughter-in-law, daughter, son-in-law, as well as her nephew and his wife, were all here. Besides, her cousin from her maternal home who was close to her family also kept her company all the way.

Although she was surrounded by a lot of people, Cao Lu did not feel at ease. 

Synovitis itself was not severe, but her synovitis had been something that had been going on for more than thirty years. She always adopted conservative treatment, and during those times, there were multiple times where the results were not good, and she could not get up. This time, she finally could not heal on her own anymore.

When she thought about the scenario where she might need to lay on the bed for the rest of her life, how could Cao Lu feel at ease?
