"Yeah, you were too tired." Joshua looked at the time. "Wait here. I'll go talk to the doctor and have you discharged."
Luna paused and answered, "Alright. And hurry up. Isn't Adrian's wedding starting at eight tonight?"
They only had three hours left.
Joshua paused and nodded. "Okay."
He turned around and left the ward.
…
In the doctor's office.
"Based on what you said, Mrs. Lynch passed out after she was informed of her best friend's death, and she can't remember anything after she woke up…"
The doctor looked at him and sighed deeply. "She's having a stress response after being traumatized. The news of her best friend's death was too shocking to her, so her brain decided to remove this memory after she passed out."
The doctor wrote a few words on the chart. "Nonetheless, this is just temporary and won't last for a long time. Typically, she should have her memory back within seven days unless she's triggered again within these seven days. For example, someone emphasizing to her that her best friend has passed away will bring back those memories to her. However…"
He looked at Joshua seriously. "If Mrs. Lynch's friend is very important to her and she had a hard time accepting the news…I think you need to be prepared. Something could happen when her memory recovers."
Joshua's eyebrows furrowed. His glabella was aching, so he rubbed it and sighed deeply. "Is there any way that can prolong her memory from recovering?"
