:02:02
- Do you have any questions so far?
- Please, go on.
:02:05
- Perhaps some of these terms are new...
- No, you're being very thorough.
:02:10
I make a point of it.
I always emphasize it with my students.
:02:13
So do I. Thoroughness,
I always tell my students...
:02:17
but, they are constitutionally
averse to painstaking work.
:02:21
- Yours too.
- It's worse every year.
:02:23
- Mine are blind.
- Mine are deaf.
:02:26
- You just have to hope.
- I suppose so.
:02:32
Where were we?
:02:33
I believe I was being
thoroughly diagnosed.
:02:35
Right.
:02:36
Now, the tumor is spreading very quickly.
:02:40
And this treatment is very aggressive.
:02:43
- So far, so good?
- Yes.
:02:46
- Better not teach next semester.
- Out of the question.
:02:49
The first week of each cycle
you'll be hospitalized for chemotherapy.
:02:52
The next week you may feel a little tired.
:02:55
- The next two will be fine, relatively.
- Eight months like that.
:02:59
This treatment is the strongest thing
we have to offer you.
:03:03
And as research it'll make a significant
contribution to our knowledge.
:03:07
Knowledge. Yes.
:03:11
Here is the informed consent form.
:03:15
Should you agree,
you sign there, at the bottom.
:03:29
Is there a family member
you want me to explain this to?
:03:32
That won't be necessary.
:03:34
Good.
:03:36
The important thing is for you to take
the full dose of chemotherapy.
:03:39
There may be times when you wish
for a lesser dose, due to the side effects.
:03:43
But we've got to go full force.
:03:47
- Dr. Bearing?
- Yes.
:03:50
You must be very tough.
:03:52
Do you think you can be very tough?
:03:55
You needn't worry.
:03:57
Good.
