326
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,958
with as much fresh fruit and vegetables
as I could carry.
327
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,311
He had been given a book
on color therapy.
328
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:55,031
In it, blue was described
as having healing properties.
329
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,388
Blue.
330
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,989

332
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:14,388
Blue.
333
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,914
No doubt the idea appealed
to his artistic sensibilities.
334
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:30,035
Back then, mysticism and magic
stood in for medicine.
335
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,796
He wouldn't accept
the fresh fruit and vegetables
336
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,911
because they weren't blue.
337
00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:40,472
But, since water was blue,
he eventually agreed to take a bath.
338
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,590
I told him that he'd given up.
339
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,992
He must fight.
340
00:35:52,720 --> 00:35:54,233
He refused.
341
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,876
He said that I had never faced
the inevitability of defeat.
342
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,959
He was going to die.
He was going to suffer, suffer terribly,
343
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,197
and there was nothing he could do,
there was nothing anyone could do.
344
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,592
He was right, on both counts.
345
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,111

00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:22,316

347
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,196
