I watched this movie, "The Secret Life of Words," this movie is about a young foreign woman who aids a burned man on an oil rig and while doing so they fall in love through their tragedies. Anyway, in the film the man talks about a book about a young nurse named Cora and their was a 15 yr. old boy who needed his appendix taken out and he was ashamed about having her take care of him and when she was in the room he would talk and she wouldn't take him seriously cause he was young, soon their became complications the boy gets very weak and he's dying and Cora sits next to his bed talking and singing to him, she says to him "don't leave me" (over and over), the boy dies with the name Cora on his lips and she then realizes that she loves him.

Please anyone with any information on what this book is called or author, ANYTHING, would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!!
