Description
x[From "Unbelievable Therapist in the Morgue," p. 105]
"It's like sex therapy. I follow a self-created standard procedure in stimulating deceased women to bring them back to life."
"You think this is quite the joke, don't you?" said the prosecutor. "No," said Steels. "Everyone knows that somewhere between eight thousand and fifteen thousand patients die in Canada every year because crowding in the emergency department delays them getting treatment. My patients are among these pitiful people.
Some of them may be declared dead before they really are. I have a simple therapy that works for some of them. I love them. I try my therapy on all of them. I enjoy doing it."
[From "Never Came Back" p. 202] "I hate you, I hate this house, and I'm leaving for good!" Teenage Jed was furious that his father had destroyed his computer. He began flinging clothing into a reusable shopping bag.
"Go and don't ever come back," Mr. Brave shouted back, as furious as his son. [Unfortunately, he never came back.] Contents
