his voice was the same as ever. "I ate two full meals today."
Anyone unused to his shrillness would have guessed that
the cancer was in his throat.

resting her elbows on it. Her narrow shoulders seemed to
rise in relief, and I saw the thin stuff of her dress shift as
her shoulder blades drew together. "Were there visitors?"
