Serious illness

Posted by SgtPepper | Posted in | Posted on Sunday, June 14, 2009

I have this heart that won't stop beating, and this head that won't stop thinking and this soul that won't stop aching. That's why I came.

I don't see right now how can I help you. Do you want to stop feeling?

A therapist, that's how they call you don't they

Yes

Well you cure people, can you cure me?

I would differ from your definition of therapist, I'm more of a guide than a healer

So you can't do it...

We would have to start by defining what is wrong

Everything, I can't breath, I can't have peace, and the times when I'm not dizzy are very rare

Mhm...dizziness. What else do you feel?

I feel need to breath really deep, but it burns, like I have a burden.

Need to breath...burden. Have you taken anything for this?

I tried Aspirins, they didn't work.

I see. And for how long have these symptoms been presenting themselves?

A few years if I recall well

I reckon this is a way more serioues business than I first thought. Tell me sir, have you been having emotions?

Yes, certainly. I wanted to cry, then to scream and then just to smile; all from something deep inside the skin, beyond the ribs. Incrustrated in the core, the core of something that... is not there.

...

Will I be okay Doctor?

...I'm afraid I have to answer no, you won't.

But... what's wrong?

I'm sorry to inform you sir, that you are alive.

...Do you mean...

Yes, I'm sorry.
