Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra un ospite e un'assistente di una casa di riposo.
A: He told me he's dying.
B: In a few months he will have to be moved to a differently facility.
A: What kind of facility?
B: Where they can supply him with more concerted care. Where they can make him comfortable.
A: My God. That’s the worst thing you can say about a medical condition, isn’t it? That they’re going to make him comfortable. When all hope is lost, they just make us comfortable. It sounds so pleasant but it’s the furthest thing from pleasant.
La mia proposta:
[...]
A: Quando si perdono le speranze, ci mettono a nostro agio. Una piacevole espressione, ma è la cosa più lontana dalla piacevolezza.
Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie.
