The patient was already unconscious when he was wheeled into the operating room at Rhode Island Hospital. His jaw was slack, his eyes closed, and the top of an intubation tube peeked above his lips. As a nurse hooked him up to a machine that would force air into his lungs during surgery, one of his arms slipped off the gurney, the skin mottled with liver spots.
No one ever asks me any questions about this chapter, but I really like it. It was the easiest chapter in the book to write, because I just followed the stories. I think its really exciting to read. But no one ever asks me about it. I have no idea why.
