:50:00
You're okay.
:50:02
You'll be fine.
:50:10
For a full week,
Our Hero was in a bad way.
:50:16
No desire to move or talk.
:50:19
But you soon adapt to hospitals.
Despite the forced lifestyle
:50:24
and climate of danger,
:50:26
nobody seemed to complain.
:50:29
Everyone seemed quite content.
:50:39
His roommate, a labourer
:50:41
aged 55, was on his 6th visit.
:50:44
He was happy here.
:50:46
I'm in for a thrombo.
A bypass.
:50:49
In ordinary life,
:50:51
he was an active guy:
DIY, gardening,
:50:55
minding his grandchildren.
:50:57
but once in the hospital, he let go.
:51:00
He surrendered his body to science.
:51:03
He loved the way
it was so well-organized.
:51:06
One day he'd die here,
that was clear.
:51:10
A spare pair of pyjamas.
:51:12
That, too, was organized.
:51:14
Newspaper,
:51:16
a book to relax you,
:51:19
some fruit...
:51:21
Anything else, just say.
:51:24
Compared with him,
I felt like a bad patient.
:51:31
I had trouble
regaining possession of myself.
:51:38
It's an odd sensation.
:51:41
Seeing your legs as distant
:51:43
from your mind,
:51:46
connected to it only by chance,
and badly.
:51:50
Have a nice day.
:51:52
Seeing yourself
as a set of jerky limbs.
:51:56
Boy! Sexy nurses!
:51:58
It's hot in here,
you dirty dog!
