"It might take a little practice to get the words out," he said."I wish I could tell you exactly how to do it, but it's like moving an arm or raising an eyebrow.You just have to find a way to turn thought into action." "If I could speak, I might have pointed out that I couldn't move my arm or raise my eyebrow. And then thanked him for rubbing it in." Chapter 2 Page 21

After Lia has a little bit more understanding of why she is  in the hospital and laying there, she is then introduced into speaking. Speaking to the doctors was like raising an eyebrow or moving an arm, but Lia could not do this, she felt paralyzed and no sensation of speaking was going to come to her. When people are in accidents nothing makes sense anymore and everything just becomes a bad idea and everything is seen in a negative way. Lia was connected into a machine that would speak for her whenever she thought of something and or an action, but what could Lia think of was why she had to be in that circumstance.
I think it was a good idea to connect this speaking machine that way Lia is able to speak her mind. Doctors are always finding a new way to make their patients seem that everything is fine and the pain or situation would pass. Doctors are determined to use their resources such as their technology to focus on their patients in order to establish ways that could report back to them of how the patients are doing.
This book is mainly written in like imagery form because I could always visualize what the doctors are telling Lia and the way she is responding. I have been to hospitals before and I am connecting how Lia is laying in that bed to all the patients I have seen in the emergency room and they are all connected by cables that transfer information to computers and where results come out.
It is not always good being a doctor because all the responsibility is put on them and they have to tried to work with their skills and with the help of the technology they are able to get their work done in a better way. Doctors want to cured their patients from pains, diseases and bad situations with their skills and medicine our world and future will be more peaceful.
