A Doctor's Note – Part Five
Dear Dr Conman,
Thank you so much for your progress report, it is lovely to hear that Laura has regained her full appetite! It also distresses me greatly to hear that the she is suffering from Hallucinations and the like, I sincerely hope that the Bangladeshi Witch Doctor can do some good.
I wait in eager anticipation for the results of this test.
Sincerely,
Margaret Brown
Doctor

Dear Dr. Brown,
Thank you for you last letter, I am glad you are happy to be kept in the loop. The last month, we have waited for the Bangladeshi Witch Doctor (who, I recently learned, prefers to go by the name "Ashi") to appear and work her wonderful magic. Just as we had given up hope, Dear Doctor, Ashi appeared.
Ms McSimmons met Ashi yesterday in her room. They spent a large quantity of time together for several days, and when Ashi finally emerged on the last day, she merely smiled at me and left the Institute. I immediately went to Ms McSimmons's room, and opened the door, expecting to find her practicing her sword work or something along those lines. Instead, she was sitting sedately at her window, watching the world go by outside.
I went to her, and questioned her about her life back at home, and to my utter amazement, she had returned to her normal self! She was acting as any young lady would, prim and proper, very held together. I was forced to admit this morning that she was ready to go home. I have just recently put her on the plane myself.
I'm so happy that Ms McSimmons was my first success. I must admit to you, Doctor Brown, that I had some doubts, and that the girls who are as delusionary as Ms McSimmons usually spend several years if not their entire lives living in my Institute. It warms my heart that the famed Ashi was able to work a miracle on your patient.
It has been lovely conversing with you, Doctor Brown, and I hope that we can meet on a much more social level in the future.
Yours,
Dr Jake Conman
Psychiatrist – Bangladesh Remote Mental Institution for Young Women
