wright && his mother`s paralysis .

I personally think that at this point, Wright being so young, it is kind of hard for him to understand what exactly is going on. He knows that his mother was close to dying because of her strokes. After the second stroke, she became paralyzed. His mother is the major role of his life at this time, being that his father left the family. His father was the source of the income in the house, their food came from the money his father made.

Wright seems scared of death. Not only because of the fact his mother was close to dieing, but because of the fact that when his mom gets sick, he has to go stay with his aunt and uncle. At his aunt and uncle’s house, he has to stay in the room, which a boy died. Right really wants to go home back to his mother when he finds this out, but there is not a lot that his mother can do for him if he were to go back home. His mother is not able to do the things she could do before the strokes. She is unable to physically discipline him, teach him, or just be a good mother to him since she is paralyzed.

I believe that Wright honestly does not know what exactly do to from here. Let alone dealing with his mother’s paralysis, he is still suffering from hunger, mental and physical hunger. His father left the family and now his mother has paralysis. I wonder what will happen next that affects the Wright greatly.
