Ellen, my... my baby.

I...

I know.

I'm sorry.

And...

I just want you to know that...

I accept it if...

If death is what you want,

I accept it now.

I accept it, but um... I love you.

I just... I can't keep fighting you.

All right.

Okay.

Mom?

Yeah?

Feed me, please.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Can you hold this? Hold on.

Okay. Do you mind if I put your feet down?

Okay. Are you comfortable?

Okay.

- Yeah? Okay.

- Yeah.

Hush little baby

Don't say a word

Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird

And if that mockingbird don't sing

Mama's gonna buy you a diamond ring

And if that diamond ring turns brass

Mama's gonna buy you a looking glass

Okay.

You need to get out of the sun.

You're frying.

There's a tree.

I just want you to know that...

I accept it.

- I just don't see the point.

- There is no point.

Can you please

just try this time?

Not too good. Not perfect.

Pretty.

I don't get to have a sister.

You're dazzling. You know that?

I do not.

Sh*t.

Hey.

I need you to look.

Oh, my God. Is that me?

That's me.

Your courage is a small coal

that you keep swallowing.

Not dead.

Follow

Follow the sun

And which way the wind blows

When this day is done

And breathe

Breathe in the air

Cherish this moment

Cherish this breath

I'm gonna be okay.

Whatever. You do this again,

I'm gonna punch you in the vagina.

- You sure?

- Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

So follow

Follow the sun

And which way the wind blows

When this day is done
