Now, that's attractive, Ouiser.
1:13:12
Honey, what have you done to yourself?
1:13:15
lt doesn't hurt.
1:13:17
M'Lynn, have you seen this?
1:13:22
Yes, l have.
1:13:24
The doctor's strengthening my veins.
They're in terrible shape.

1:13:28
My God!
1:13:30
lt looks like you been
driving nails up your arms.

1:13:34
What is going on?
1:13:36
Shall we tell them?
1:13:43
l guess we can't keep it
a secret any longer.

1:13:47
Shelby has been driving nails
up her arm.

1:13:51
lt's my dialysis. lt's no big thing.
1:13:57
Don't look at me like that.
Having Jack, Jr., strained my kidneys...

1:14:01
...and now they're kaput, that's all.
1:14:04
The doctor said this would
probably happen.

1:14:06
''That's all''?
1:14:08
''That's all,'' she says.
1:14:10
Do you do this dialysis forever?
1:14:13
Well, l could, l suppose.
1:14:16
But it's not convenient
when keeping up with Jack, Jr.

1:14:19
So l'll have a kidney transplant.
l'll be fine.

1:14:21
-ls it that easy?
-Sure.

1:14:24
They do them all the time
in Shreveport.

1:14:26
They do. Our Sunday school class was
just praying for one the other day.

1:14:31
But the hard part is
finding a kidney, isn't it?

1:14:34
l saw something about it on TV.
Very dramatic.

1:14:38
Medical teams fly all over the place
taking hearts and kidneys...

1:14:42
...and who knows what else.
1:14:44
You know what impressed me?
1:14:45
-They carry the organs in beer coolers.
-Stop it!

1:14:49
Those doctors take out
their six-packs...

1:14:52
...throw in some dry ice
and a heart and get on a plane.

1:14:55
How long do you have to wait for one?
1:14:58
There are people on dialysis
that have waited for years.
