They cut his hair today. The doctor explains that it's difficult to maintain longer hair when a patient is in a coma. They had waited to see if he would wake up before they did it, but it had been a long enough time with no sign of recovery. So they cut it. Rose had to leave the room; she couldn't watch.

Now his hair peeks around the bandages in wispy chunks. There's no style to it. In fact, it looks like even if there was an intended style, his hair wouldn't conform to it.

Every now and then, there is a slight, nearly imperceptible twitch to his right pinky. No one has noticed yet.
