Three days later, Augustus´s father phones Hazel. He
says a notebook was discovered on the magazine rack near Augustus´s
hospital bed. The pages in the notebook are blank, however the first
three or four pages have been torn out. Wondering if Augustus might
have hidden the pages in the church, Hazel fetches Isaac and they
head to Support Group early. But they don´t find anything.
When Support Group begins, Patrick asks how Hazel is
doing, she says she wishes she would die.
When Hazel arrives back home, she wants to lie down,
but her mother tells her she hast to eat to stay healthy. Hazel
angrily tell her that she´s not healthy, that she´s dying and that
one day her mother won´t be a mother any more. Her mother says, that
she doesn´t want Hazel to think she´s been imagining a world
without her, but if she gets her degree she can counsel other
families.
