In this chapter, Miranda nurses her family through the flu, learns terrible news about Peter and the damage caused by influenza and adverts a fire caused by the wood stove. Matt is left weakened by his illness.
- What is the condition of the family at the beginning of Chapter 19?
- What has happened to Peter? Most of the hospital staff?
- Why does Miranda continue to write in her journal despite all the adversity she and the family are experiencing? (p. 299).
- What incident happens at the house to make Miranda believe her family will survive no matter what? (p. 305)
- On p. 311, mom stops herself mid-conversation to call Miranda a "very special woman." Why is this significant?
- Describe Matt's condition at the end of the chapter? Why is he this way? What does Miranda feel this means for the family?
1 Jonny and their Mom have bad fevers or the flu, and they cant do anything for themselves leaving Matt and Miranda to take care of them
ReplyDelete2 Peter caught a flu spreading through the hospital, and he died of it like most staff unfortunately.
3 Miranda thinks it would be a good idea for the people of the future to know about her family's life.
4 They survived the wood stove letting off smoke.
5 Miranda has proven herself to be a young lady after her actions.
6 Matt took every ounce of his energy to save Jonny and their mom, because of that he is weakened and when they are in trouble again its not likely he can help.

ReplyDelete2. Peter got sick from his generous, but STUPID, volunteer work at the hospital. Now he has a flu. ANY QUESTIONS???
3. She thinks she should have her own book. You know, like Anne Frank.
4. They survived breathing in fire from the wood stove. IRON LUUNG! MUAHAHAHA! >:)
5. After all of this happened, Miranda proved herself to be older and more mature. She could take care of herself in these kinds of HORRIFIC situations, and her Mom knows and respects that. ISN'T IT NICE????
6. He saved his mommy and Jon-Jon. And he did that because it's his little brother and his birth giver. YOU KNOW HOW IT IS, DAAWG!
