. Among them is chronic bronchitis, the symptom of which is a “dry” cough. This disease can lead to disruption of the immune system, which is constantly exposed to significant stress, and can also be complicated by other respiratory diseases.

Movie Doctor Sleep
In 1980, after escaping from a hotel, Danny Torrance and his mother Wendy move to Florida. Danny continues to be haunted by a ghost from the hotel - a rotting woman in the bathtub. The ghost of Dick Halloran taught him to lock such ghosts in imaginary "boxes" in his mind. Meanwhile, a cult known as the True Knot, led by a certain Rose, is powered by the "steam" produced by dying people with the Radiance ability, which Danny also possesses. She brings into the cult a teenage girl, Andy, who has the ability to telepathically control people.
In 2011, Danny, still traumatized by what happened at the hotel, becomes an alcoholic trying to suppress his powers. He moves to a small town where he befriends Billy Freeman, who gets him a job and becomes his sponsor in Alcoholics Anonymous. Danny begins to feel better and soon finds work at a hospice, where he uses his abilities to comfort dying patients, who give him the nickname "Doctor Sleep." He soon begins receiving telepathic messages from Abra Stone, a young girl whose Radiance is even stronger than his.
In 2021, the True Knot begins to starve. They kidnap a boy named Bradley and torture him to death to extract as much steam as possible. Abra feels this event and her pain is transferred to Danny and Rose. Rose wants to find Abra to let off some steam and support the cult. Realizing that Rose is hot on her trail, Abra visits Danny, who insists that she stay away from him so as not to draw attention to him. That night, Rose astral projects herself into Abra's mind, but is stunned when the girl manages to trap her, allowing her to briefly enter Rose's own mind. An injured Rose returns to her body and sends the True Knot to capture Abra.
Danny is visited by the ghost of Halloran, who tells him to protect Abra. Abra tells Danny about Rose, saying she can track the cult's location if she can touch Bradley's baseball glove. Danny tells Billy about the Shining, after which they go to the murder scene together to retrieve the glove. They then go to Abra's house, where they hatch a plan with Abra's father (Dave). Using Abra's astral projection as bait, Danny and Bally lure out the cult members before shooting most of them. However, before Andy dies, he manages to telepathically manipulate Billy into killing himself.
Rose's lover kills Dave and kidnaps Abra, whom he drugs to suppress her Radiance. Danny contacts Abra, who allows him to temporarily possess her. Together they cause the villain to die in an accident, after which Abra is freed. Danny and Abra are reunited as Rose consumes the cult's remaining steam supplies, which heals her wounds and she vows to avenge the deaths of her people. Danny decides to return to the abandoned hotel, believing that it would be just as dangerous for Rose as it was for him and Abra. There he starts the cauldron and begins to explore the building, awakening it in the process. Danny visits the rooms where he sees his father, influenced by the building's power, trying to kill him and Wendy. At the hotel bar, he is offered a drink by the bartender, who looks very much like Jack.
Soon Rose arrives at the hotel. Abra and Danny try to lock her in a "box" in Danny's head, but are unsuccessful. When Rose defeats Danny, Abra runs away. Rose begins to drain Danny, after which he opens several "boxes", releasing the hotel ghosts, who quickly surround Rose and kill her. The ghosts then take over Danny's body and he begins to hunt for Abra. When she manages to momentarily free Danny's consciousness, he tells her to run away from the hotel. Fighting his obsession, Danny heads to the tribe-infested boiler room. At the last moment, Danny sees himself as a child being hugged by his mother Wendy. Abra watches helplessly as the hotel burns down and then talks to the ghost of Danny, who reports that he is now at peace. Abra's mother Lucy learns to adapt to her daughter's abilities, especially her communication with the spirit of her late husband. At the end, Abra encounters the ghost of the rotting woman from the hotel.
