Jack shakes his head. "The main reason I didn't want Kim to go through with it was the small risk to her, and the likelihood that it wasn't going to work. I didn't want her to watch me die; not like that."
He pauses for a moment, almost mentioning his conversation with Gohar before Macer had put him under. He doesn't, though. He's not sure he can describe just why he began to forgive himself for all the things he'd done at that moment, and he's not sure it'll be of any help to Renee.
"When I woke up, it was already done, and when Kim told me about Teri... It made a difference, knowing that I might survive, and that I had a granddaughter. It made me realize that I wanted my life back, and I was willing to do whatever it took to get it."
