The doctor immediately concluded that the professor needed emergency brain surgery, and advised David that a request had already been made for a prominent brain surgeon from the State University to come and operate on his father. Unfortunately, the university medical facility was located 78 miles away, and the professor′s condition was such that he might die before the surgeon arrived.
