text: Sue: Hey Rose, remember Melanie?
  Rose: The one who's married to Peter?
  Sue: Yeah. Remember a few years ago I told you she had a tumour? Well the cancer came back with a vengeance.
  Rose: Oh, really? :(
  Sue: I went to see her last Thursday. She's at a hospice now. She can't move, talk, see. 
  Rose: Wow, that's horrible. Can she communicate at all?
  Sue: She nods a little and makes a barely audible sound, so I think she understands when we talk to her. When I left that place I just broke down and cried. It's so awful.
  Rose: Oh, man. Is there any chance of recovery? What do the doctors say?
  Sue: I'm not sure, really. We're all hoping for a miracle. Just last summer I was able to communicate normally with her. It's unbelievable how tragic it is.
  Rose: Doesn't she have like 3 kids?
  Sue: Yeah, the oldest is 11.
  Rose: Wow, that must be so tough on the family.
  Sue: Yeah, Melanie's mother can't handle it, she doesn't visit her because she can't stand to see her in this state.
  Rose: When are you planning on going to visit her next?
  Sue: I will go this Friday.
  Rose: Ok, I would like to go with you.
  Sue: That would be nice. I'll call you Thurs and we can work out the details. Talk to later.
  Rose: Ok, have a good night.
target: Melanie has cancer. She's in a hospice. She cannot talk but understands what is being said. She has 3 kids, the oldest is 11. Sue went to see her last Thursday. Next Friday Sue and Rose will go to visit Melanie together.
