Joelle delivers the notebook and pen; her folded-down railing survives the dream

texture · c. 18-19 Nov YDAU

• When: c. 18-19 Nov YDAU (2009) — after the 18 Nov visit; scene internally dated prob. 19 Nov (sleet; Diehl's snow-tonight prediction)
• What: A nurse delivers a stenographic notebook and Bic — "The visitor said you'd requested this, because of the tube" — proof the veiled Joelle understood Gately's air-writing mime; and when the Ferocious-Francis/Pakistani-M.D. confrontation proves to have been a dream, the one piece of surviving physical evidence that anyone real was there is the bed-railing Joelle had folded down to sit on the bunk (in Erdedy's B.U.M. sweats).
