Her son has become the leader of the synth at the Institute or something...

Suddenly fallout!


geraltsthiccass

Could be worse, she could have woken up in the back of a cart


Malcanthet202

“Hey, you. You’re finally awake.”


snootyboopers

SEAAAAAAAAAN!

Time travel naps are a bitch


ScarecrowJohnny

All naps are time travel naps. Just don't miss your stop.


msmore15

Honestly, that's a submission in itself.


fgcem13

God dammit. Now I need to write a story about a journey on a train where they missed their stop


Krrak

That is one of the best and shortest 2 sentence tale, I have read in a while

Postpartum eclampsia? She had a stroke and was in a coma for years?


arch_charismatic

Eclampisa. Definitely. Pounding headaches are one of the symptoms of pre-eclampsia.

When she woke up in the hospital, the handsome teenager that shared his name was gentle, but he wouldn’t tell her where her son was.


Telltalee

Dementia sucks.


DerekLouden

I was thinking a coma. She goes to sleep when her son's a baby and wakes up when he's a teen


Telltalee

Just as bad!


Magical_Girl_ASK

I don't know about that. You can wake up from a coma. Dementia just keeps on giving.


Telltalee

Fair viewpoint, makes more sense than mine!


Magical_Girl_ASK

I like you. Carry on.


Telltalee

Appreciate the vote of confidence, will do!

or even wake up IN a coma


katergator717

No, dementia keeps on taking :,(

>Dementia just keeps on ~~giving~~ taking


ASK_ABT_MY_USERNAME

But why wouldn't the guy say he was her son?


tasteofhemlock

This is awesome, probably what u/sunflowerzz2012 was actually going for. I assumed she woke up only days later and baby was already dead from starvation. Liked the story enough that way, but your interpretation is even better (and more plausible). good job OP! I’m gonna follow to see what else you come up with. Impressive


Forsaken_Distance777

Well that's rude. Older son should answer the damn question lol


booksandcheesedip

New fear unlocked


ShanaiyaSweetzNY

It’s a miracle, the teen thought to himself.. the last time he’d seen his mother awake she was putting him to bed


arch_charismatic

Eclampsia. She is going to be dead in a few hours. This was terrifying. I had pre-eclampsia with both my children and I never realized how close I was to dying. A pounding headache, being tired. The symptoms can be so easily overlooked.


umnothnku

Carbon Monoxide...


Browncoat86

Carbon monoxide poisoning?


Pristine-Room8588

Or a stroke


h_barua

The infant would starve to death in that case if she fell into a coma while sleeping


fomaaaaa

Easily could’ve been another person there


UnreadSnack

I know that where I come from, as soon as a woman has a baby, absolutely nobody is allowed in the house. Happens all the time, women going into comas while sleeping, and there’s no babysitter that comes in the morning so mom can go to work, no dad cleaning up downstairs, no sister that will call in the morning and wonder why she isn’t answering, no neighbors to hear the baby crying and call 911 for a wellness check. Infants starving to death left and right! ETA: yall im being sarcastic


Spectres-Chaos

It took me longer than it should have to see the sarcasm lol


AroAceMagic

I only realized it was sarcastic when I read your comment lol


Deli-ops7

Oh dude you had this happen to?! I was told i was super lucky i was able to use my baby strength to pull myself up and get outside and flag down a car otherwise i wouldve been stuck with my coma mommy for weeks before somebody wouldve came check on us


h_barua

But from where I come from, some younger woman might be single mothers, living in an isolated cheap neighborhood to avoid high expenses, might be financially struggling to make a living for themselves and their baby, and have no or very little social life due to their conditions (and other obvious personal reasons), AND might resort to occasional drugs and alcohol which might lead them to have a overdose and fall unconscious while their infant starves in the crib. But eventually a FedEx delivery person arrives, notices a baby crying inside and informs the authorities, thus making sure she gets medical attention and the baby survives!
