:27:14
She is looking out the...
:27:35
- I want to know more about your son.
- Certainly.
:27:43
Something was wrong with his hands.
He could not write anymore.
:27:49
He could not do the work.
:27:52
I should take him out of school,
they said. He was eleven.
:27:58
Slowly, he got worse.
:28:00
He would call me and I would come in
and he was sitting at his desk -
:28:03
- in a trance. One hour, two hours...
Then he would be okay again.
:28:11
One day I came home from work
and found him in his bed.
:28:16
He kept saying, "Mum, mum?"...
His arm was like this, reaching.
:28:24
"What do you want, Leonard?"
:28:26
He never spoke again.
It was as if he disappeared.
:28:31
Later, that year,
I took him to Bainbridge.
:28:36
It was... November 14, 1939.
:28:42
He was twenty years old.
:28:45
What did he do for those nine years
in this room?
:28:48
He read. He loved to read.
He read all the time.
:28:53
Really?
:28:57
That was all he could do.
