(This is the first Seth session Jane has held since the private session for November 10, 1982: Eleven months.
[... 1 paragraph ...]
(Tonight at session time the small television set on its swivel arm was on, opposite Jane’s left knee. Her broken right leg [just above the knee] leaned against her left leg. The television picture was on but the sound was off. Jane had just finished a cigarette. Actually, I thought, this was almost an ideal time to try for a session in the hospital, for after supper she wasn’t apt to be bothered by staff people for some little time.
(Almost as soon as she said she’d try to have a short session, she started right in. I just had time to write the time on my pad. Her Seth voice was deeper than her usual voice to some extent, but it wasn’t loud, and I was sure no one would notice anything unusual sound-wise from the hall outside the closed door of room 330. Jane’s eyes remained open, but she took few long pauses.)

(7:06. “Great,” I said as Jane quickly left trance. We were both pleased—delighted. Jane sighed with relief. I got her a smoke. “I just know it’s something good,” she said. “It sure isn’t something bad....” After we’d talked for a bit she asked, “Do you like our house?”
(“I like it fine,” I said. “Although it’s no fun being there alone.” It developed that Jane wouldn’t mind moving—a thought she’s mentioned before, and some time ago. I said any place was okay with me, as long as we were together, working the way we wanted to. Even 1730 Pinnacle Road in Elmira, New York. She agreed with that.

(“Well, that sure must mean something,” each of us said more than once. It was too much: Peg and Bill dropping in like that during a break in the first Seth session we’d held in almost a year. At the same time, I was afraid the excitement of the visit would interfere with Jane resuming the session. We waited to see if Seth would return—and he did, in less than a minute.
(7:37. “I guess there’ll be a little more,” Jane said.)

(7:42 PM. Jane’s voice had been the same as before: deeper but not loud; I’d felt good energy in it, I told her.
[... 1 paragraph ...]
(“I sure hope so,” Jane said, and even as we talked she began to flex both arms back and forth, straightening them out farther than I’d seen her do in months. It looked strange indeed to see my wife’s limbs moving like that. when I’d grown so used to seeing her cradle them against her body and across her chest.

(Jane said the session “felt good” while she was doing it. She hadn’t been sure Seth would return after the Gallaghers left. For myself, I felt a distinct resurgence of hope as I cleaned my stuff up after the session, and we talked while I got ready to go home for supper. I couldn’t help but feel better.
(At 7:52 I turned Jane on her left side, read her the prayer after getting her comfortably (?) settled, opened a window a bit, and adjusted the TV. I left at 8:15.
