She scrutinized every action of the staff, every treatment, every whispered explanation, desperate for clarity.

As dawn’s light crept across the sterile walls, Sarah understood: her mother needed strength, not rage. She would advocate, seek truth, and stand resolute, transforming fear and anger into purposeful action.
