Chapter 465 - Recovered (1/2)

One hour later.

Tang Shao Chen and Bai Su Fei came out with delighted faces.

Tang Shao Chen then spoke as he looked through the materials that they had collected.

”Mr. Xu has indeed recovered from the vegetative state. He might have some difficulties in moving and speaking at the start because it had been a long while since he last moved and talked consciously. However, judging from how fast his progress is within this one hour, we think that he would be fully recovered within a month. Don't ask us how it could be possible because we don't know about that as well. We are equally surprised by his progress. Vegetative states are one of the most complex and least-understood matters in humans because not all can make it to being recovered. There is various news of patients recovering from more than fifteen years of being in the vegetative state. There are also patients that didn't make it or their family gave up on them only after a few years. However, your husband progressed from blinking his eyes twice slowly to answering us short questions within that one hour. He even progressed from bȧrėly moving his hands to being able to take very slow short walks around the room as well. We can only guess that he probably had a very strong body or at least he was someone that moved about or even fight often before he had the accident. So, once he starts to recover, he would recover very quickly. Another possible reason is that you and your son have been taking very good care of him and that's why his muscle strength didn't deteriorate that much.”

Xie Xiu Ling and Xu Wei Sheng were so stunned and thrilled by the news that they cried out as they hugged one another.

”Is he really going to be alright?” Xu Wei Sheng asked timidly because he was afraid that it was all a joke or a dream.

Bai Su Fei moved forward and bent down as she gently patted Xu Wei Sheng's head, ”Yes. Your daddy is going to be alright. He told us that it was because you and your mommy's care for him that gave him the courage and strength needed to continue the fight to live on.”

”Daddy knows?”

”Mhm. You can ask him later when you go in, but be careful not to make him over-emotional for now. Take it slow. Alright?”

”Ok. Thank you, doctors!” Xu Wei Sheng smiled brightly as he bowed and thanked them.

”Thank you!” Xie Xiu Ling thanked them as she bowed to them as well.

Tang Shao Chen smiled, ”You don't have to thank us. This is our job. Besides, the most important thing for patients in a vegetative state is their will power to come back. For this, the people they love and the people that love them must be there to support them and give them the strength to fight. So, the honor belongs to you all. The two of you and Mr. Xu himself.”

Xie Xiu Ling and Xu Wei Sheng thanked them once again, ”Thank you!”

”Go on inside,” Bai Su Fei then gently patted Xu Wei Sheng's head before she left with Tang Shao Chen.
