Tell me, Doctor, what ails me

"Well, madam, I'm afraid the news is bad."

"What do I have, Doctor?  Is it serious?"

"What you have is invariably fatal."

"Oh, no!  What is it? Is there any hope?"

"I think not.  You have a serious case of...Victorian Novel Disease.  Your death serves narrative function."

"Noooooooooooooooooooo!"
