You’ve been very unwell.

Nod.

How’s your chest, any pain?

Shake of head.

Do you still have nausea?

It’s pretty bad.

And your breathing?

No good.

How long have you had the hiccups?

Two days.

What did the doctors at the hospital tell you about your condition?

They said it’s no good.

Did they talk to you about time?

They said it was bleak.

Nod. We’re going to work on making you more comfortable. Starting with your nausea and breathing.

Okay.

We’ll see if we can calm things down for you.
