“I’m sorry I left the room.” Doctor Shin sat now in a chair, elbows balanced on his knees, looking unkempt. “The truth is, I was shocked by what I saw in those X-rays. I called in a few colleagues to talk about them, make sure I wasn’t off-base. As I told you before, the infection has spread. It’s all over the place, inside the bone. It has taken over. The upper third of the bone is completely moth-eaten.”
