Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 923

Chapter 923 You Really can't Invite Someone with Conditions

Minnie's mood was getting worse day by day, and tears would fall down her face without any reason. Eden tried to comfort her but felt helpless and defeated for the first time.
There was no doubt that Minnie was suffering from postpartum depression, and even Eden seemed to be on the verge of depression.
Hayden family.
Eden walked in with a sad expression on his face. Patrick looked up at him and noticed something off about him.
Eden sat down on the couch with a troubled look. Patrick said, "People might think that Brandon is causing trouble because of your appearance."
Eden looked up at Patrick and said, "If I'm not a human being, I really wish it was him."
Patrick replied, "Don't say things like that. Your family will break your legs if they hear you."
Eden knew Patrick was right and sighed heavily. After a long pause, he said, "I don't know what to do anymore. I still love her but she doesn't even want to see me now."
He even wondered if he deserved this punishment for his past mistakes.
Patrick suggested finding a psychologist for Minnie since she couldn't regulate herself alone or with Eden's help.
He knew how serious Minnie's condition was since Aimee had discussed it privately with him before wanting to help out too. But Minnie didn't want anyone near her at the moment, which made it difficult for them all.
"I have thought about that," replied Eden."But you know what kind of person she is; she'll figure out if I'm faking it or not immediately."
The key was Minnie didn't want anyone near her right now.
Mariam could get close to Minnie while others couldn't as she trusted Mariam more than anyone else at this point in time, which made things harder for everyone else involved including Eden who felt helpless in this situation
"In the end," Patrick said, "it's all because of her weight issues; we need to find a way for her lose weight."
Eden heard what Patrick had just said but felt frustrated knowing where the real problem lay yet having no solution whatsoever. Everyone knew that if Minnie can lose weight and return to what she considered her perfect appearance, she will feel psychologically comfortable. Once she felt psychologically comfortable, everything else will fall into place.
However, the problem lay here.
Minnie's diet was tailored to her physical condition. In theory, even someone with obesity would see results from this type of diet. However, Minnie had been on it for over twenty days and there had been no effect.
Eden said, "I really don't know what else to do now. I wish I could grow fat instead of her."
Just then, Aimee came down from upstairs.
It wasn't the first time Eden had looked at Aimee but it was the first time he had seriously examined her figure.
Thin waist and long legs - flawless perfection.
Aimee knew what Eden was thinking so she didn't take offense. She walked over and handed a small box to Eden saying, "Minnie is almost done with postpartum recovery. Give this to her after that."
Eden took the small box and opened it up; inside were about ten blue pills similar in appearance to blueberry candy. He looked at Aimee puzzled as he wondered what they were for.
Aimee explained, "They help regulate Minnie's emotions and body constitution; we've had them before but they weren't suitable for breastfeeding mothers until now when we improved them."
It took a while for Eden to understand that these pills were probably meant for weight loss purposes which made him worry as he asked, "Is this some kind of weight loss pill?"
If losing weight required medication, then Eden would rather have Minnie stay overweight than risk harming herself by taking such pills.
Aimee replied, "You can think of it like that but these won't directly cause significant weight loss; instead they'll help stabilize her mood since right now it's not just about being unable lose weight but also because anxiety is preventing her from focusing on managing bodyweight."
As Eden listened further, his mind suddenly thought of another possibility which made him look at Aimee intently before asking hesitantly, "Aimee…is this an antidepressant?"
Had things gotten so serious? If only he knew earlier, then he would have preferred not having children rather than let Minnie suffer like this.
Aimee said, "Don't scare yourself. Don't think too much. It's not that serious. Just treat it as a supplement. I've improved it and it will enhance Bran's physique when Minnie breastfeeds."
Eden stopped worrying after hearing this.
He looked at Aimee and said solemnly, "Aimee, thank you so much."
Aimee smiled and said, "It's okay. Don't make it such a big deal. Your emotions are affected by this too. Even if you don't show it in front of Minnie, she will sense it sensitively. Don't make both of you sick in the end."
Eden nodded and asked, "Can I give her the pill now?"
"It's fine," Aimee replied.
Eden immediately stood up from the sofa and said, "Then I'll go back now." And he left quickly.
Patrick reached out to touch Aimee's head and said, "You worked hard."
Since noticing that Minnie's condition had worsened significantly, Aimee had been developing this pill for days now; if Eden hadn't come today, she would have called him over anyway.
"It wasn't that hard," Aimee replied.
She looked at Patrick and continued saying, "My body seems to have returned to normal. I hardly need sleep anymore."
After all these days of staying awake constantly working on the pill's formula, she didn't feel tired at all!
Patrick suggested, "Do you want to go out for some fresh air?"
Aimee turned her head towards Patrick with suspicion regarding his invitation asking. "What are your intentions?"
Patrick chuckled but didn't hide anything from her, saying, "The hospital is almost done being set up. Do you want to take a look?"
As soon as Aimee heard what he was suggesting, her eyes lit up with excitement! The last time they went there was when she was pregnant; afterwards she made a list which Patrick arranged people according to complete tasks, but then so many things happened afterwards that Aimee couldn't even spare any attention towards those matters anymore.
Now hearing what Patrick just suggested made Aimee restless with anticipation!
"Of course we should go!" exclaimed Aimee excitedly as they headed straight out the door towards the hospital.
On their way there, Patrick mentioned, "We hired some people before. Do you see anything else we need help with?"
Immediately upon hearing him say this, Aimee thought about a list in her mind, replying confidently, "I actually do have something like that but those are difficult people to get hold of. I'll try contacting them myself later."
Some of the doctors she hoped to invite were big names in the industry, and they were not for fame and money, but for curing diseases and saving lives.
Such doctors really can't be hired just by conditions.
