2. For about ten days, i.e., from January 27 to February 8, her condition was of a more pronounced character. For the most part she lay in bed with often quite immobile face and with eyes closed, or she looked about in a bewildered manner. She was very inactive, presented a marked resistance in her arms and jaw when passive motions were attempted, or, again, exhibited decided catalepsy. She had to be tube-fed. Once on the 27th of January, when the nurse tried to feed her, she pushed her away and said, “I am dead--I am not home.” Sometimes she turned her hands about with slow tremulous movements, looking at them in a bewildered manner. She usually was mute, except on the few occasions to be mentioned later, as well as on February 3, when she was generally a little more responsive. At that time she could be made to open her eyes, and then replied to a few questions slowly and in a low tone; others were left unanswered. (To the questions where she was and how long she had been here, she replied with “I don’t know,” but to questions about who the physician and the nurse were, by saying “You are a doctor,” and “she is a nurse.”) In the general setting just described there occurred at various times changes in behavior which were as follows: On the evening of the 27th of January she got out of bed and walked about with slow restlessness, saying: “They say I am going to be cut up.” On February 1, she was seen for a time making peculiar slow swimming motions with her hands. Again on the 3d of February she got out of bed, walked about slowly, with peculiar steps, as though avoiding stepping on something. Next day (the 4th) she sat up in bed--again made at times her peculiar slow swimming motions. She presented at the same time a peculiar dazed bewildered uneasiness and, when questioned what was the matter, said: “I am--I am--at the bottom of the deep--deep water--oh--oh--the deep--deep--dark water.” And when further urged she added with the same manner, “I can’t swim--I don’t know--but the place”--She did not finish but later again muttered “the deep--deep--dark water.” (Do you really think you are in the water?) “I don’t know--my head is so bad.” For the following five days this behavior was repeated from time to time, when she would sit up and with bewildered uneasiness make slow swimming motions and mutter when questioned, “I am in the deep, dark water.”
