WELL... this response wasn't nearly as quick, sob. Sorry for that.

Anyway... if there's a canon backing for it, then it is something you might be able to play with. The "real life" version of the character would have to have a history of being suicidal as well (for more real life reasons, naturally), so that the nurses would be justified in wanting to have a watch. How you want to play it out is sort of up to you, but let us know what your ideas for it are and we'll let you know what would be doable.
