Cyrus was shocked. As he asked the doctor to help him take Avery to the bed in the ward, Cyrus asked the nurse in a low voice, "How much blood did you draw in one go?"
The intern nurse sensed something wrong and rushed over in a panic.
"I drew... I drew 1.05 pints. There's no Rh-negative blood in the hospital. This gentleman said that he was healthy, and the emergency room needed blood, so I drew more."
Generally speaking, with Avery's condition, he would be clearly unwell when he was drawn about 0.7 pints of blood.
But Avery insisted that he did not feel any discomfort.
The director on duty, David Cohen, scolded her in a low voice, "Pack up your stuff and quit. You are a nurse. Don't you know a bit of common sense?
"A normal person can only be drawn 0.35 pints to 0.7 pints of blood at most. Do you think it is as easy as carrying water? Why don't you roll up your sleeves and donate 1.05 pints?"
