Chris sniffled a little and wiped at her nose with a tissue.

Her nose had stopped bleeding.

It was weird that it didn't even worry her that much. At first she'd been terrified but now she was resigned to it. Although sometimes she wondered if this hemorraging would spread to other organs - if that's how she would die.

A short coughing fit overtook her, when it was over she laid back against the pillows.

The ears were gone. She seemed to grow and lose new body parts quickly. Soon they'll be enough for a whole new person! She had extra fingers and toes. There was also a growth on her back, on each side of her spine. Chris wasn't sure what they were but it was getting more difficult to lie on her back.

Her skin was a horrible blue color. She looked like a deformed three-day old cadaver.

A small sigh. She just wanted this to be over.

"Um, yeah. Water would be good," she answers in a small voice.

Elaine goes to get her fresh drinking water, running it from the tap until it's cold. She puts a straw in the glass and holds it up to Chris's mouth as she sips.

While Chris is thankful for all the help Elaine is giving her, she still doesn't like being this dependent on anyone. It makes her uncomfortable.

She takes a few more sips, the glass now half-empty, then pulls away. "Thank you, Elaine."

"You're welcome," Elaine says, and doesn't make mention of anything else. Chris will ask if she needs anything.

"Your father should be here in a few moments," she says softly, sitting down. "He had to get dressed."
