M: Look at you! You're so skinny that we could use you
as model to study the skeleton! They brang you here by
wheelchair cause you can't walk by yourself! If you continue
this way we must feed you by injections!
He leaves her hand.
She slowly puts it back on the bed as she's not reacting
to these words.
D:
Your muscles are almost gone... |

D(VO):
...we're gonna stimulate them with the low voltage.
Hand in. |

N:
Don't worry Fade, this is a muscles and nerves stimolater
and it's a very low voltage... I even tried it on myself.
It won't hurt you. I will put it on some points of your
body and face once at week.
The nurse puts the things in some points of the arm, she
does it very slowly.
N: See? |

Now on the face, don't be scared. |
