Chapter 560: 560: Blurred Consciousness
He Clings to Me Every Night
In the middle of the night, Daniel Marshall, holding Olivia Jenkins in his arms, was roused from his light slumber by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Immediately, Daniel opened his eyes to see doctors and nurses running towards his grandfatherâs ICU room.
Daniel let Olivia lean against the chair to sleep while he gently moved his hand. In an instant, Olivia too woke up.
Danielâs voice was soft and low as he reassured her, âHoney, just keep sleeping.â
Olivia saw a nurse run out of her grandfatherâs ICU room and suddenly lost all desire to sleep.
âHusband, letâs go see my grandfather. Iâm not tired anymore.â
Daniel nodded slightly, taking Oliviaâs hand as they headed towards his grandfatherâs ICU room.
Through the glass window, Daniel and Olivia saw that his grandfather had awakened and the doctors and nurses were examining him.
Suddenly, Daniel and Olivia both felt an overwhelming sense of joy; their eyes unknowingly filled with tears of happiness.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
This was the best New Yearâs gift!
Daniel and Olivia, overcome with emotion, embraced each other, their eyes fixated on the scene inside the ICU.
After finishing the check, the doctor performed an evaluation before leaving the ICU.
Although his grandfather was awake, Daniel and Olivia could tell he wasnât looking at them, as if he hadnât noticed them at all.
The on-duty doctor called Daniel and Olivia into his office to speak candidly.
âChief Daniel Marshall, Mrs. Olivia Marshall, Mr. Alexander Marshall has awakened. His vitals are acceptable, but he needs continued observation. Recovery from brain damage is not immediate, so currently his consciousness is a bit blurry. When we asked his name earlier, all he recalled was his last name, Marshall.
We will do a more detailed check when it gets light, and after a directorâs evaluation, will decide on a further treatment plan. During the daytime, you can go in to see him in sterile clothing, talk to him about past events to stimulate his brain and help him regain his autonomous consciousness and memory.â
Danielâs eyes were a little moist, but his mood lightened considerably, âThank you, doctor, we will cooperate with the treatment.â
The on-duty doctorâs expression was somewhat grave as he hesitated, then said: âItâs also possible that Mr. Alexander Marshall might lose a part of his memory. If you all spend more time with him, it would be best if he can remember everything. Current medical technology is advanced so a full recovery is possible, but it does take time, and we canât say for certain how long.â
Daniel creased his brows and his face instantly fell, âWhen it gets light, I will talk with the director and dean. We can have a consultation with foreign experts, and I want to hear their opinions as well.
RenewalCare Hospital is the best hospital in Serene City with cutting-edge technology and equipment, as well as the best imported medicines. I hope you will do your utmost to cure my grandfather.â
ââ¦â
âIf itâs necessary to invite a foreign expert team to RenewalCare Hospital, thatâs also okay. I only have one requirement: you must cure my grandfather. Money is not an issue.â
After a moment of silence, the on-duty doctor duly stipulated, âIn the early morning, Iâll report to the director. The hospitalâs expert group still needs to meet to discuss further.â
Danielâs brows furrowed more deeply, his expression quite serious, âPlease advise the ICU nurses to take care of my grandfather and remind him of his name and basics.â
âChief Daniel Marshall, rest assured that we will follow closely.â
Leaving the doctorâs office, Daniel and Olivia stood at the window, staring blankly at his grandfather.
Just after awakening, Mr. Alexander Marshall seemed a bit lost, not quite sure what to do. His state and behavior were heartbreaking to see.
Daniel felt a sharp pain in his heart.
Once his emotions had settled, Daniel called his father.
Michael Marshall had not been sleeping well, but answered the phone immediately when it rang.
