As is the case of many people with long COVID, Fitzgerald’s recovery has had ups and downs. She now has more help with child care and a research job with the disability-friendly Patient-Led Research Collaborative. While she hasn’t gotten into a long COVID rehab group, she’s been teaching herself pacing and breathwork. In fact, the only therapeutic referral she got from her doctor was for cognitive behavioral therapy, which has been helpful for the toll the condition has taken emotionally. “But it doesn't help any of the physical symptoms,” Fitzgerald says. It is normal to go through emotional changes after a hysterectomy and it is important to talk to your doctor or a mental health professional to help you cope with these emotions. Two things baffle me about Yitzchak. If we know that we live in a world alongside envatted people, then Yitzchak concedes that we do have reason to doubt external reality. In one of his greatest dialectical victories over Yitzchak, Lev forces Yitzchak to concede, reluctantly, that it can't matter whether those envatted people live contemporaneously to Vatol or long before him, and that by parity of reason, it would make no difference whether those envatted people exist a long time in Vatol's future (pg. 81). Knowledge that such people exist, anywhere on Vatol's timeline, gives Vatol reason to adopt a radical skepticism; reason that -- according to Yitzchak -- we don't have. But we only don't have that reason to the extent that we're confident that there never will be envatted people -- even in the distant future.

Daniel plays the role of an honest arbiter. The real philosophical action takes place between his two very different, ex-students-cum-colleagues, Yitzchak and Lev. All of the protagonists agree that, if we knew that we lived in a world in which some people were envatted (i.e., existed only as brains in vats), then we would have reason to doubt our so-called external reality. They imagine a character, Vatol, in just that situation. Vatol, they all agree, has reason to doubt. Lev thinks that our situation is no different to Vatol's. Yitzchak disagrees.

Many [Tudor-era religious radicals] believed then, exactly as Christian fundamentalists do today, that they lived in the 'last days' before Armageddon and, again just as now, saw signs all around in the world that they took as certain proof that the Apocalypse was imminent. Again like fundamentalists today, they looked on the prospect of the violent destruction of mankind without turning a hair. The remarkable similarity between the first Tudor Puritans and the fanatics among today's Christian fundamentalists extends to their selective reading of the Bible, their emphasis on the Book of Revelation, their certainty of their rightness, even to their phraseology.
