After examining Johnsy one morning, the doctor called Sue out of the room and gave her a prescription, saying: «I don’t want to frighten you, but at present she has one chance in, let us say, ten, and that chance is for her to want to live. But your little lady has made up her mind that she isn’t going to get well, and if a patient loses interest in life, it takes away 50 per cent from the power of medicine. After the doctor had gone, Sue went out into the hall and cried. As soon as she could manage to check her tears, she walked gaily back into the room, whistling a merry tune. Johnsy lay with her eyes towards the window. She arranged her drawing board and began working. Soon she heard a low sound, several time repeated. She went quickly to the bedside. Johnsy’s eyes were wide open. She was looking out of the window counting backward. «Twelve», she said, and a little later, «eleven»; then «ten» and «nine», and then «eight» and «seven» almost together.
