A Laugh Before Dying

He has a fever. And a slight cough. So he lays, pathetic, on the couch.

He beckons to me to come closer and whispers, "I'm dying...I'm trying to hang on, though."

As I stifle my laughter he continues to explain, "When you're super, super sick...you die."

I tried, to no avail, to explain that he is not "super, super sick". 

We've agreed to disagree.

I've searched the post for clues, but I give up. Is it Curtis or Ian who is dying?

Oh, just saw the label. Poor Curtis.... I will miss that little fella.

Curtis will fit in well with the stigma that when a man gets sick, he thinks he is dying. He's already got it down!
