Source text - English Blue tube, green tube, clear tube, fat tube. A Dr. Seuss rhyme. The tubes run from robotic Magi gathered around the incubator, snake through portholes in the clear plastic box, then burrow into the baby's pinkish grey skin. One tube up her left nostril. One tube down her throat. One tube into an arm no wider than a Popsicle stick. One tube tunnels into her chest. The skin of her chest is so thin. The baby's mother can almost see the tiny organs beneath, the way shrimp is visible under the rice paper of a spring roll. The baby doesn't move. Doesn't cry. To the mother, the baby, with its blue-black eyes, is an extraterrestrial crash-landed on her planet. Hidden away and kept alive by G-men while they assess what threat this tiny alien might pose.
Translation - Spanish Tubo verde, tubo blanco, tubo gordo, tubo claro. Como una rima infantil de Dr. Seuss. Los tubos salen de los reyes magos robóticos que rodean la incubadora, reptan a través de huecos en la caja de plástico transparente y se entierran en la piel gris rosácea de la bebé. Un tubo sube por la fosa nasal izquierda. Un tubo baja por la garganta. Un tubo entra en un brazo no más ancho que un palo de paleta. Un tubo cava un túnel dentro de su pecho. La piel de su pecho es tan delgada. La madre de la bebé casi puede ver los pequeños órganos que están adentro, como se pueden ver los camarones por debajo del papel de arroz de un rollo primavera. La bebé no se mueve. No llora. Para la madre, la bebé, con sus ojos negro azulados, es un extraterrestre que se estrelló en este planeta. Escondida y mantenida con vida por agentes del gobierno mientras calculan qué riesgo puede generar esta pequeña visitante.
