The hallway fell silent.
The neonatologist stepped out.
“The infant responded after her intervention,” he admitted.
The nurse looked shocked.
“We need to review everything carefully,” the doctor added.
Jonathan made a call immediately.
“I want full records and footage secured right now,” he said.
A resident spoke nervously.
“The oxygen alarm was delayed,” he admitted.
Nora realized she could not stay silent.
“There was a delay because some equipment was missing,” she explained.
Lillian cried softly.
Jonathan spoke calmly.
“You are telling me my son nearly died because of negligence.”
No one answered.
Within an hour, the hospital was in chaos.
Administrators arrived and investigations began.
A technician confirmed that essential equipment had not been maintained.
Nora sat quietly in the hallway.
No one offered help, but everyone stared at her.
An hour later, the doctor returned.
“He is alive,” he said.
Lillian cried again.
Jonathan leaned against the wall in relief.
“He is still critical, but there are real chances,” the doctor added.
Jonathan walked toward Nora.
“You gave me my son back,” he said.
“Not yet, he is still fighting,” she replied.
“He is fighting because you made him fight,” Jonathan said.
