Temi Johnson hesitated at the door to the ward her daughter was in for a minute, fearing what would ensue as soon as she goes through the door. Before the doctor broke the news to her, she was filled with anxiety to see her daughter; to make sure she was doing fine and tell her it was going to be alright after all those years of being apart. She was going to console her about the passing away of her best friend. All those plans came crashing down as soon as the doctor broke the news to her. Her daughter couldn’t remember anything, not even her own identity. The tears in her eyes threatened to fall, she closed her eyes and cleared her throat, trying to fight them.

“It’s going to be okay sweetheart” he squeezed softly

She opened her eyes and nodded, opening the door and gently walking in. her husband and the doctor walked in behind her into the room, the doctor closing the door as soon as all of them were in. Temi looked up to see her daughter in an upright position slowly raise her head up to look at them as they walked towards her bed. The tears that have been threatening to fall since she got to the door of the room slid down easily immediately she saw the lost look on her daughters face.
