Deciding on a full inspection
The next day, a geneticist woman in a white coat appeared in her hospital room with specialized equipment and told her that she would need to examine all the tissues in her body. When Ellen agreed to have blood, skin, hair, and oral mucosa samples taken, all samples were placed in containers. The geneticist told her that the results would be available in a week, but a few days later she received a progress report: blood, skin, hair, and oral mucosa were all inconsistent. Ellen’s hope is almost gone again. Finally, however, a tissue sample of the cervix is taken.
