I just... I didn't want to disturb you.
:40:02
Disturb me?
Well, I wasn't doing much. Just dying.

:40:06
Oliver! You weren't dying.
:40:10
- You didn't even call.
- Of course I did. I talked to someone.

:40:13
- Not to me.
- Well, I talked to a nurse and...

:40:15
..she said that you weren't dying.
:40:18
Well, I thought I was dying!
:40:23
I wrote you a note...
in case you didn't get there in time.

:40:31
I can't read your handwriting.
:40:34
I was on a gurney being rushed
to Intensive Care in excruciating pain.

:40:41
It says:
:40:44
"My love, by the time you
receive this, I may be gone."

:40:49
"My life was... fun...
:40:51
..full... beyond my dreams."
:40:58
"All I have... and all I am, I owe to you."
:41:04
"You gave me courage
to surpass what I know I am,...

:41:07
..the strength to..."
:41:10
Oh, this is where I had a spasm.
:41:12
Uh... I can't read it, but the next line says:
:41:16
"I lie here, feeling my life ebb away."
:41:21
"I cling to your image."
:41:24
"I will take you with me to eternity."
:41:28
"I cherish you."
:41:32
"I thank merciful God for you."
:41:38
I didn't have the strength to sign it.
:41:44
I'm... I'm sure they, um...
:41:48
..they would've told me who it was from.
:41:56
I can't believe
you didn't call us at school, Mother.

:41:59
I didn't see any point in alarming you until
there was something to be alarmed about.
