Chapter 6 - THE VISITOR RESTRICTIONHospital IT confirmed a visitor restriction had been submitted at 6:17 a.m.

I was in surgery.
The request came through my patient portal.
Device:
My phone.
Two-factor authentication:
Approved locally.
My parents had possession of the phone.
Could police prove which parent tapped the screen?
No.
Was it automatically a crime?
Not necessarily.
But it explained why Alistair had been blocked.
The text entered under “patient notes” read:
Do not admit Alistair Sanders. I do not want him involved with me or my baby.
I cried when Leah showed it to me.
Not because it was eloquent.
Because somebody used my first-person voice while I was unconscious.

I had spent my entire adult life fighting my parents’ assumption that my preferences were drafts until they corrected them.
Now they had literally written as me.
