Mom

At first, Wright is very upset about his mother’s illness, however as time goes by, he gets used to the fact that his mom is ill. I think everything “new” in people’s life starts out with a shock, then people get used to them, whether or not it’s a bad thing. And I think that is what Wright did. He subconsciously trained himself to be okay with the fact that his mom is ill. But then, what was really sad to me about how he was handling this situation was that the fact he relates his mother’s illness to what’s going on around him. He sees the sufferings and he soon realizes that it’s helpless.
