    He has what I have.

    But he just wouldn’t get treated⁹.

    It was that kind of thing.

C: Yeah, and he’s good.

    He’s, he’s well.

B: And your mom?

C: You’d think I’d hate¹¹ her… Maggie does… but I understand.

B : 你之前有预感吗？

C : 我爸爸的病很折磨人。

  就是这种事儿。

B : 但是他现在开始服药了。

C : 是啊，他现在状况很好。

  情况相当不错。

B : 那你妈妈呢？
