Summary: Slow dialogue: 1:28 Explanations: 3:07 Fast dialogue: 14:41 Gail: Oh! Mike: Are you okay? Gail: Yeah, I’m just not used to these crutches yet. The doctor said I should start using them if I ever want to get out of this wheelchair, but I don’t have the strength to stand up. Mike: You’ll get the hang of it. Don’t lose heart. Gail: It should be easy now that my arm is out of the cast, but it just seems impossible. I feel I’m going to lose my balance each time I try to stand up. Mike: Try again, and this time lean on me and I’ll try to serve as your legs until you can find your balance. Gail: I wish I didn’t feel so utterly useless. It’s so frustrating! Mike: I know. Just keep your eye on the ball and give it another try. The next thing you know, you’ll be limping along and then running a marathon. It’s just a matter of time before you get your mobility back. Gail: Yeah, right. Okay, first things first. Let’s see if these useless legs of mine will cooperate this time. Script by Dr Lucy Tse
