The case is not yet hopeless, though it is deteriorating. (Pause. Note: not all pauses are noted.) The inner will to live must be revived. It is this inner will to live that is lacking now. At the heart of the condition, there is a series of psychological shocks that occurred.

A change in the husband’s attitude will affect the attitude of the ill woman.

The situation is indeed drastic. (Pause.) Her desire to live must be wooed. Any small pleasures that she has should be used in an effort to involve her with pleasure. As much pleasure as possible must be given her to counteract the concentration upon hopelessness and disaster. I cannot stress any of these points too strongly.
