A Worn Path

While reading the beginning of this story I really did not like it because I did not know what was going on with Phoenix Jackson. She seemed to be making no sense at all. "She did not dare to close her eyes, and when a little boy brought her a plate with a slice of marble-cake on it when spoke to him.”That would be acceptable," she said. But when she went to take it there was just her own hand in the air." I think she is out of her mind the way she talks to the scarecrow and how she talks about getting by a two-headed snake last summer during her journey. I also do not think she even has a grandson but that she has made it up for an excuse to come to town and talk to people. It just seems ridiculous because what kind of doctor would just give meds out without seeing the patient.
