from Toba Kerson's notes: Mobster is beaten nearly to death after raping a young doctor – among many other dreadful things. She is so focused on the rape that when he is brought to the ER (she doesn’t know that it is he) he has to wait so long for the correct interventions that she thinks she has caused his amnesia and docility. She takes leave from the hospital, helps him to regain his strength and at the end, when they each realize what he has done to her, he goes back to his old gang, volunteers to lead a fight with another gang that will lead to his certain death. Ch. 14 – he is in the interrogation room unable to remember who he is but having horrible flashback about his beating and he clutches his head and falls to the ground having a tonic-clonic seizure.
