days."
                     "Few days? Doctor that's too far? Will she make it that long?"
                      "We still need to gather together our best doctors from all over the country, Mrs. Morero. This isn't just any surgery."
                      "Can't we move this forward? To tomorrow maybe?"
                      "I have to get in contact with the doctors, Mrs. Morero. It depends on when they are available."
                      "Can we move her?"
                      "Whoa, Kayla. Slow down. What are you doing?"
                     "Angel, your mom might not have too long a time to live anymore. Let's move her to another hospital where these facilities are readily available and the surgery can be done today or tomorrow."
                      "No one knows her case like Dr. Phil, Kayla."
                      "Yes. Besides, there is no other hospital in LA that can pull of this stunt except outisde of LA. India. They have the best specialist. And they are the only one I trust that can do this."
                      "Then get her ready to be transferred immediately," I said like I hadn't heard other parts of what he said.
                      "Kayla, are you sure about this?" Angel asked.
                      "Yes. Elizabeth is your mother and she must not die. I'll pay for all the bills. Doctor, please. Can this be done right now?"
                      "Yes, of course. I'll contact my men at the airport now. In an hour, she should be ready to be transferred."
                      "Thank you."
                      "Please excuse me,"the doctor added, then left the office. It was then and only then I was able to finally sit down.
                       "Her treatment is going to cost a fortune, Kayla."
                       "Her life is worth far more than that. I'm doing this for you, Angel."
                       Then I decided to call Shipwreck concerning my mother's plan. I don't know why but he seems like the kind of man who would help me out. I excused myself from the doctor's office now and went out to call him.
                      "Kayla, I can't believe you're calling." His voice echoed on the phone.
                      "I need your help."
                      "What is it? You know I won't refuse you."
                      "Can you send me money?"
                      "Sure. How much?"
                     "$100 million."
                      "Wow. Why? What happened?"
                      "Nothing. I need it urgently. Can you send it? If you can't there is no problem."
                      "No, no. I can. I will."
                      "Right now? And please don't tell my mom about this."
                      "Okay, I won't. But at least tell me why you need so much money."
                      "I can't tell you. Please transfer it to my account." I hung up. I received an alert almost immediately. Yes! I hurried back into the office now. I met the doctor in there talking to Angel so I just joined the conversation.
                      "Yes. Everything has been finalized and ready for movement."
                     "How much?" I asked more concerned about the bill than any other procedures.
                      "$150 million. She'll be transferred and treated accordingly. Then in a week's time, she should be back in LA."
                      Angel and I exchanged glances, then Angel gave me the ‘I told you’ frown.
                      "Let's do this," I said.
                      "Kayla, we don't have $150
