The Patient with No Name
In a quiet hospital ward, names are spoken like passwords — until one patient’s disappears.
The Patient with No Name is a haunting short story about what happens when a person becomes a number in a system built for efficiency, not empathy.
As the hospital routine deepens, the narrator’s name fades from every list, screen, and memory — until she must decide whether to reclaim it or disappear completely.
Told in spare, lyrical prose, this story explores identity, bureaucracy, and the quiet violence of being unseen.
Themes: identity • invisibility • bureaucracy • care • belonging • erasure
