"Are you going to the hospital again with a bunch of nonsense for Mari? How long is this going to last?" Asked Victor angrily to Mrs. Delgado when he saw her in the kitchen. Marina had already been in the hospital for six months after a long chemotherapy and treatment. The doctors had given a final and very discouraging diagnosis. The tumor was growing, and the disease was advancing since her hospitalization. Neither Mrs. Delgado nor Victor had known peace. She spent all her time in the hospital, and he worked two shifts to continue paying the mortgage of the apartment they lived in."
