The Glitch in Brenda's Second Life

Summary

My son had been in a vegetative state for five years when his caregiver suddenly demanded to marry him.

She claimed that after caring for him day and night, she had fallen deeply in love and didn’t mind that he was comatose.

I politely refused. Even if my son never woke up, I had no right to treat his life like a bargaining chip.

That was until I overheard the caregiver on the phone with her ex-husband. That’s when I learned she was a "regressor"—someone who had lived this life before.

According to her, my son was going to wake up in exactly one week.
