Sometimes Dee shuts her eyes and imagines flying like a bird, simply floating high above everything. But thats impossible without wings. And besides, she has to take care of her mother, Bessie, which is ironic, since her brother, Georgie, was Bessies favorite child. Bessie has a constant refrain, "Tell me if I did something bad, Dee. I must have done something awful, otherwise why wouldnt Georgie come see me or even call me?" Ignored by her mother as a child, Dee has been Bessies caregiver (feeding, washing, wiping, and tending) for nearly a decade. But now, in 2008, Bessie has begun wandering and seeing things that arent there. Dees full-time caregiver job is intensifying (add tracking, trailing, soothing, and reassuring). Plus theres increasing financial pressures. Shell never fly. Caregiver. Shes the caregiver and its pretty well known that care-getters often outlive their caregivers. And then theres Georgie-the dimpled, handsome son that they only see on his TV commercials. Hes started coming around. Whats he up to?.
