Chapter 6 & 7 Question (Steph)

Throughout the two chapters, we see that Szpilman is trying to forget about the war by distracting himself, when he suddenly finds himself in the hospital wit appendicitis. With all of these events going on at one time how would you manage to cope with all of it? And furthermore, how would being in the hospital make it worse during this time? better?

    I think that being in the hospital would distract me from the hard times, with people coming to see me and all that. But I feel like supplies and such would be limited. I would also worry that the hospital would be closed down or that I would be forced to leave before I was healthy enough too. The gifts and visits from friends would definitely help me through the hard times though.

    If all of these things were happening to me, I would try not to think about any of it so much even though that might be really hard. Also, if I was put into the hospital during this time, I think that this would make it harder because I would want to be back with my family and helping them out with whatever they needed in the hard times. I would also be kind of scared that the Germans would come and make everyone leave the hospital, even if all of the people there were not ready to leave the hospital. It might be better to be in the hospital at this time though, because hospitals are supposed to be very safe and if I were in a hospital at this time I might have felt a little safer than being at home.
