Question 5
Phoenix cannot see very well. She is not blind but she has a cane to help her move around. The fact that she has poor vision dramatizes the entire story. Her journey is more difficult because she cannot see well, she has a long way to go, and she is elderly. The same trip for a younger person with good eyesight would not be as challenging and less dramatic. She talks out loud to herself to ward off any creatures and uses her cane to detect any objects in the way. When she gets into town a lady ties her shoe for her. She picks up medicine for her grandson and the medicine is free. I thought that Phoenix is a very loving and caring person because she was willing to make the long trip for her grandson so she could get his medicine.
