Hazel screams to wake her parents. Her head feels
like a series of explosions and because of that she waits for death,
which don´t come.
Then Hazel wakes up in the ICU. Her father explains
that the headache was brought on by poor oxygenation, which resulted
from her lungs filling with fluid.
After that Hazels nurse tells her father to leave the
room. While feeding Hazel ice chips, the nurse mentions that Hazel
has been out for a few days and that Augustus has been outside in the
waiting room, since her arrival.
On Hazels last day at the hospital, Augustus is
allowed to visit, whereupon he delivers another correspondence from
Van Houten. By finishing the letter, Hazel is already wondering if
Dr. Maria might clear her for international travel.
