Brendan dialed the phone number, and when the call was connected, he passed the phone to Deirdre.

The doctor sounded very stable as he said, “Miss McKinnon, I understand how eager you are to see your mother.

“It won’t take long, Miss McKinnon. Provided that her situation gets better, probably in about a few months. It’d be good for you to see your mother.”

“Alright.”
