Aqua stayed in Jim's room as the doctor performed his tests. She hoped and prayed there would be something that could jog his memory about her. When he said out loud what year he thought it was, her heart nearly broke. He didn't recall anything. That was months, possibly a year before they even met. Though she put on a brave, calm front, Aqua was barely holding herself together.
You can get through to him. His memory will come around eventually.
"I can call Doctor McCoy, please give me a moment." she forced a small smile on her lips as she left the room, leaving Jim with his doctor. He probably wouldn't believe a word the medical examiner said, but if he talked to Bones that would be a different story.
She called him, explained the situation and in minutes he was down there. He examined Jim's charts himself and looked him over again. The conclusion was the same, but McCoy at least had that nice touch of knowing what to do with Jim.
"Would it be better if he stayed with me or--"
"Better with you. The more he's around familiar things, the sooner his memory could come back." Bones told her, making her sigh a little.

This wasn't going to be easy, was it?
