Waldo and Lucia turned to Ste, puzzled.


    Ste calmly addressed the doctor, saying, “He suffered a head injury while in Sothrea and experienced memory loss.


    Could this fainting episode be rted to that?”


    The revtion stunned the doctor, Waldo, and Lucia.


    The elderly couple was particrly incredulous.


    Lucia quickly grabbed Ste’s hand, asking nervously, “What happened? What do you mean he lost his memory? Wasn’t Matthew doing well?”


    Waldo added, “He remembers everyone, doesn’t he? How could he have amnesia?”

    “This is selective amnesia.


    It doesn’t present any health risks.


    As long as he avoids intentionally trying to recover the forgotten memories, there should be no issues.


    However, this type of amnesia may have minor impacts on his daily life.”


    Lucia, noticing Ste’s sad expression, inquired, “When might he regain those lost memories?”


    The doctor appeared uncertain.


    “We can’t predict that right now, but treatment may help restore his memory, provided Matthew doesn’t resist.”

    Lucia, observing Ste’s dejection, felt a deep sympathy.
