Joe has just gotten back from war and is kind of screwed up mentally and physically. He has wounds and bandages all over his body. He thinks that he is deaf because he can't hear his own heart beat. Joe had been unconscience and had just woken up from it. The ringing in his hear reminds him of when his mother called him on the phone to tell him that his father had died. Although he can't hear, and his eyesight is impaired, he is able to feel of the people working on him. Doctors are working on a procedure and are trying to heal him. While they are doing so, both of his arms are amputated. He is very frightened and feels very helpless. It's a very hectic situation and Joe feels very trapped. He compares it to drowning because he keeps on getting dunked into helplessness. He can't communicate due to his deafness and he can't make hand motions because he has no hands. He can't do anything in the situation and it's bothering him greatly.
