Am I all right

While John Gilbert was in hospital, he asked

his doctor to tell him whether his operation

had been successful, but the doctor refused to

do so. The following day, the patient asked

for a bedside telephone. When he was alone, he

telephoned the hospital exchange and asked for

Doctor Millington. When the doctor answered

the phone, Mr. Gilbert said he was inquiring

about a certain patient, a Mr. John Gilbert.

He asked if Mr. Gilbert's operation had been

successful and the doctor told him that it had

been. He then asked when Mr. Gilbert would be

allowed to go home and the doctor told him

that he would have to stay in hosptial for

another two weeks. Then Dr. Millington asked

the caller if he was a relative of the

patient. 'No,' the patient answered, 'I am Mr.

John Gilbert.'

After comparing with the original track, I think I have some stress and pause issue between the phases. I redid it again. Do you think it is a bit better?
