Before starting i wanna tell u something pretty imp-
Only after doing alot of research, ive chosen this topic as basis of the story
The upcoming chaps contain medical terms& ways of treatment
The methods i will mention might not be 100% acurate cz despite trying alot, i cud get only limited amount of data on the topic so plz bare with me

Next day-

Avni went straight to xyz hospital for sanidhya's treatment, not before informing someone in her dept

She decided to spend her day there itself

At xyz hospital-
Avni did as she planned- she spent most of her time there with sanidhya
Though the session was for 3hrs only, she decided to stay to gain info about neil- (his medical history, precisely) so as to know his case better but alas she cudnt as she wasnt a staff of their hospital &was appointed for sanidhya only
But she didnt give up cz she knew that being a doc from a diff hospital, she wont get access to such files easily so she waited for the right time

**Time lapse***

It had been a month since avni was treating sanidhya &her treatment did yeild positive results as he was recovering
The dean called for avni& she arrived at his cabin

A-may i come in sir?

Doctor looked up from a file he was going through

D-oh yes ms Mehta
Avni enters

Im highly impressed by your work
I just received a call from the docs at the other hospital
They told me that sanidhya is very well responding to the medication& counselling sessions
They say if he continues to improve, then they might release him in a month or2
Im extremely happy &proud of you-bcz of u our hospital will reach more heights

A-tysm sir
Its my pleasure that i could contribute to the betterment of our hospital &my treatment helped a patient for the better
Sir, after a pause avni continued- sir actually i have a request from u-but i dont know how wud u react

D-go ahead

A-sir theres a patient named neil in the same hospital as Sanidhya

D-oh ya
I heard alot about him from their docs- hes a big nuisance for them

A-sir i want to take up his case, only if u allow
Ive seen a strange pain in his eyes- as if he was tortured at some point in his life which resulted him in the mental hospital-as if hes there against his wish
The dean went silent for a while
Avni thought he was gonna refuse when he spoke-

D-well ms Mehta i dont have any personal issues if u try to treat him but the only thing im worried abt is that its pretty dangerous- i dont know much in detail abt his case but the docs there say its next to impossible to treat him

A-sir whats the harm in giving it a try?
After all, all the doctors at our hospital have taken risks at some point in their career so i feel even i can give it a try

D-well if u insist then i will talk to them today itself& will try to ask for his case file as well so that u are well prepared for treating him

Avni's happiness knew no bounds

A-tysm sir
I will try my best to not disappoint you

D-all the best

The dean talked to the other hospital &by evening, neil's case file was on avni's table
Her working hrs were over& she didnt have any surgeries or night shift so she drove back home
She was extremely happy

Mehta house-

Avni quickly had dinner& ran upto her room to get onto work-she had to start neil's treatment from the next day itself
Nobody in the house was surprised cz it was a part of her routine which everyone was aware of-

Everyone in chorus- ANOTHER EMERGENCY CASE &continued having their dinner

Avni's room-

She was busy going through neil's file when few shocking facts came in front of her

Name-Neil Khanna
Age-25
Disease-victim of solitarry confinement since10 yrs
Parents-mr& mrs Khanna
Date of admission- addmited 5month ago

Avni was shocked-
He was in solitary confinement since age of 15?
But why?
And by whom?
It was ironic that even after going through so much that too at such a tender age, neil survived ut all-but now hes been facing the after-effects of the same

She flipped through remaining pages but didnt get any info apart from medication names, MRI(magnetic resonance imaging)& EEG(electroencephalogram) reports
She did become a little upset but was determined as well so she decided to manage with whatever data she had& try to fetch whatever was missing

Thankfully she knew the dos& donts of dealing with such patients &hence knew his probable reactions along with what to say &what to avoid

Next day, xyz hospital-

Avni took sanidhya's counseling session& then moved to neil's room

As usual, he was screaming, hallucinating abt people& talking to himself
As usual, an untouched plate of food was kept next to his bed along with very dim lighting in the room- things shes been noticing in past1 month but unlike previously, this time avni knew the cause& was prepared with the cure
Now she had the answers to most of her questions

She decided to strike a conversation with him& taking a deep breath, she entered his room

A-hi neil
Im Avni Mehta- your new doc
Your previous doc Nikhil Kashyap has got a transfer& hence now yr case will be under me
Avni said politely, with a smile on her face
Neil's expressions were of fear& anger-at the same time
He didnt speak-just faced the other She tried to extend the conversation but alas, failed
Not giving up, she decided to know what all has happened with neil in past5 months

So thats all for rn
Sorry for the late updat& another short chap
Actually i always have difficulty in forming the initial chaps😅😅😅
