Six p.m.

The endless physical therapies and examinations were done for today, only to be repeated tomorrow.

Ben was laid on the hospital bed, his food next to him, but he did not touch it.

He claimed he couldn’t. He can’t feel his legs, can’t move his arms. He just.. doesn’t move.

And while Ben said he can’t, the doctors were sure his arms were completely healthy, and he should at least have a slight sensation in his legs.

Everything indicated that Ben just.. gave up, and could very well move his arms or feel his legs if he just made the effort.
