Elizabeth nodded.

“Yes,” she replied. “I’m sure she could use some rest and her own bed. I’ll prescribe some sugar pills… we can tell her it’s pain medication. It seems her pain is strictly mental and doesn’t actually exist. If she thinks she’s taking medication to help with her pain, then her pain will go away.”
