Doesn’t Mrs. Worthington have a lawyer or advocate who’d handle contacting relatives? And I’d think that if the patient requested it, the hospital wouldn’t have a choice, they’d have to contact Dana. Dana could sue them later on if she finds out that they were supposed to contact her and didn’t.
Well, “…get your caboose back to Philly…” takes up far less space than other phrases. And, is swear-word free, to boot, (o use another ancient term that people may not be familiar with any more).
I have an aunt who has been battling Cancer for nearly six years now. Don’t even think of putting her on any “deathbed”! She’s been the Matriarch of the family ever since my grandparents died decades ago (cancer runs in my family). As long as she can get out of bed and take her meds, she can cook, clean, and pretty much whatever else she wants.
But if we don’t follow her funeral instructions to the letter, she’ll come back and haunt the crap out of us.

The look on Marcy’s face says a lot…

She’s not going to have time to change her will if she is truly on her deathbed.

Sounds counterproductive to getting the message to Dana.
(“Hey, Honey, remember that big promotion and more money I turned down?”
“Uh, huh.”
""I uh, just inherited 3.14149 billion dollars."
“That’s a big piece of pie.”)

Little red caboose chug, chug, chug
Little red caboose chug, chug, chug
Little red caboose behind the train
Smoke stack on its
Back, back, back, back
Coming down the
Track, track, track, track
Little red caboose behind the train
Last car on the end, end, end, end
Racin’ round the bend, bend, bend, bend
Little red caboose behind the train

That quote wouldn’t exactly get Marcy to contact Dana since it would mean she would become rich.

She’s kinda lively for being on her deathbed.

And to think, they all thought Marcy was crazy for turning down the promotion…
