And Dr. Baz related, saying: I heard that May was ill in the house of her relative Dr. Joseph Ziadeh, so I went at once to visit her. They said that she was on strike against food, and that she was on strike against speech as well; but with me she talked pleasantly — I remember that the talk turned on cigarettes and the pleasure of smoking — for I saw before her on the table a box full of cigarette stubs.

And I remember that I offered her with my own hand a glass of orange juice, and she drank it. It was a wonderful hour that I spent at May's side — God rest her soul.
