So I had to wield my paralyzed arm like a stump and cover the numbers as I went along and pushed them, so that as I would come back to normal reality, I'd be able to tell, "Yes, I've already dialed that number."
Man bija jāuzstutē paralizētā roka kā zīmogs uz tā cipara, kuru biju uzgriezusi, lai tad,  kad atgrieztos normālajā realitātē, spētu saprast:  „Jā, šo ciparu jau esmu uzgriezusi.”
