265-280

The pain inside Zeitoun is taking over he is losing lots of weight and is looking sick. The doctor has been giving a form and should look at him soon. He thinks the pain is not from infection or injury but due to sorrow. He is feeling pain that he isnt with his family or helping with taking care of his city. He starts thinking about life insurance. He says he should of bought a larger one. He is having all the stress get to him. He is getting enraged by thinking about Kathy thinking he is dead. He is searched thoroughly every week. Guards look for drugs or contraband in all of the prisoners. Kathy also finds out what Zeitoun was arrested. He was arrested for looting but the charges were soon going to be dropped. Kathy and her family find out that he is alive. Then the end of where I read kathy calls the prison and they say there is no record of Zeitoun.



My personal response to this is that Zeitoun hurting because he cant be with his family and cant tell them what is wrong and if he is alive. I can imagine how he is feeling. He is probably heartbroken for going to prison when he was trying to do something right. Then kathy finds out he is okay and alive and then all of a sudden she calls the prison and they say they dont have record of him. Now she probably thinks he is dead. She had a whole bunch of stress taken off her mind and now it is all retained again. I dont know if i could take all the stress that kathy is encountering. I would break down. I am obviously not as strong as Kathy and Zeitoun.
