"I'm not giving him rum, Jack, it would weaken his blood, and he needs what strength he can muster now."

"For pity's sake, Stephen, I've never seen a boy so brave. He strength is not in question."

"I don't tell you how to steer the ship, and now I must ask you to respect my judgment here." Jack put his hand on Stephen's briefly, and they shared a glance.

"He . . . just . . . he means much to me. Please. If there's anything that must be done to make him comfortable . . . do not hesitate."

Oh yes! I did wonder whether he gave him more laudanum or what...I have never seen a braver patient either! I still can't watch that scene without closing my eyes.

Nice!

I love it when Stephen asserts his authority of medicine, even when it means getting snappy to superior officers. :D
