The Summer I Saved The World ... In 65 Days (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
Does mending Thomas’s cape again count as another good thing? So what? This is forty-four. The last time Mom and Grandma were together, they had a fight. Maybe that was the only way they could end, after a lifetime of arguing. Mom was pleading with Grandma to take her medicines and have the surgery so she could get more time. Grandma kept saying, “For what?” “You are the most difficult woman I’ve ever known,” Mom said. Grandma’s hands were in her lap. “As are you.” Both were right. Mom was at work on the day Grandma actually died. I wasn’t with Grandma either. She was in hospice then, in a bed all the time. One of the nurses, Shelley, told us she thought Grandma had waited to die when she was alone. “It’s a strange thing,” Shelley said. “I’ve seen it happen again and again. People wait until their loved ones aren’t in the room. They somehow know.” That night, I’m in my room, about to thread the needle, when I see a flash of light from the Dixon house.
