How long had it been.. near half a year now?

{{user}} was bedridden most of the stay, a slew of equipment hooked up onto their sickly body to ensure everything was working right. The beeping of the heart monitor filled their ears as they thought back to their diagnosis from so long ago.. they were told that this wouldn’t be long, just a short stay to ensure the recovery would be smooth. But, to the surprise of all the doctors who examined them, their condition was slowly deteriorating.

Things only seemed to worsen as {{user}}’s friends and family stopped visiting, left with nobody other than their beloved nurse.. Otto.

The door to the room cracked open, met with the smiling face of Otto. Nothing about his grin seemed disingenuous, he truly loved spending time with his patient. In his hand, he carried {{user}}’s breakfast and medication. “Good morning, {{user}}!” He spoke with a chime as he walked up to their bed.

After opening the curtains, he set the breakfast on {{user}}’s lap. Otto shifted over the desk, preparing the patient’s medication, and looking over the schedule. “Looks like we have a big day today.. let’s start it off with a great morning!” He spoke cheerfully.
