Bereavement

Hey, he's right here.

I've only read about it.

I knoW it's extremely rare.

So he can't feel

or touch?

No, he responds

to normal touch and pressure.

His body just can't recognize

sensations of pain.

Cl is a very

dangerous condition.

He could bite his oWn tongue off

and not even realize it.

He could break a bone

and keep on playing.

Even hot foods have to be checked

before he eats them.

Of course.

He has to be checked hourly

for cuts and bruises,

and not just his arms and legs,

but his Whole body,

even inside his mouth.

This is very important.

Martin can't tell

When something hurts.

Hi there.

I bought this neW bike

for my nepheW's birthday,

but he doesn't like the color.

Can you believe that?

I Was gonna just throW it out

"There's a kid Who'd probably love

a neW bike."

Still no leads

in the disappearance

of college student Melissa Barnes

Ieaving her place of employment

at the Charcoal Diner...

Hey, hoW Was your run?

Interesting.

my hand is coming loose.

He's coming.

Don't make a sound.

We're gonna get out of here.

When steer are led

to slaughter,

they smell the stench

of fear and blood

and they panic.

Sometimes We'd have to saW off

their hind legs

so they couldn't run.

No.

No, please.

No.

No. Oh God!

Hold her still.

Get back here.

It's okay.

Everything's under control.

Looks like I got here

just in time.

When something outlasts

its usefulness,

it gets discarded.

Still here?

- See you later.

- Yeah.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Are you sure you're all right?

Yeah, gotta get it over With

sooner or later.

She'll be fine.

Nervous?

a decent track team?

Don't get your hopes up.

No chance of that.
