the idea came from a dream, that i'd written a love story between a dying man and the ghost of a girl he knew as a child (though she died as a grown woman, after a life he knew nothing about, except rumors)
something touching on themes of the movie 'dead man' and the novel 'the hour of the star' in some ways
in and out of consciousness
in and out of drugs
wheelchaired around the grounds
on a gurney in the hallway
flashing back and flashing forward
memories and dreams
visitations
other hospital residents
also the old man on the gurney in the new york hospital and his visiting nephew - some of that floating in and out
her name was margaret garfield
his name?
every time they ask him if he knows his name, he comes up with a new one (un-vocalized) which launches into a new story
All about daydreams
Do ghosts sleep
How did they get stuck
