“Good morning Ms. Marshal.” Said the doctor as she came inside the room.
“Ms. Marshal the intubation tube will be removed now. I want you to relax or it can be very uncomfortable.” She says while checking the tab hanging in front of the bed.
After she’s done reading she signals the nurse.
As it was removed I coughed couple of times. Even coughing hurts.
“Here drink this.” Amanda says as she hands me the cup.
The cool water was like a blessing in disguise.
“How do you feel?” The doctor inquired.
“I don’t know. Numb?” I croaked. Amanda handed me another cup.
“Its the sedation. I would suggest you to slow down even the water intake for a while to get your body accustomed.” The doctor advised.
“Do you remember what happened?” She asked.
“Yeah. The kidnapping, Uncle and Amanda saving me. I also heard some of what you said when I was down.” I said the last part while looking at Amanda, to which tears formed in her eyes.
