Prereading
leaving the doctor with Carmen Joy, his granddaughter. "Carmen,” Doctor Beagrie sighed “I’d like you to take these papers I’ve collected to your parents. It is clear that it is no longer safe for your grandfather to be living alone. Tell them I am happy to discuss the different options whenever they’re ready.”
escorted
“Well, Orson, the tests aren’t looking good. We’re going to have to increase your blood pressure medication again. You will need to come back in two weeks so we can continue to monitor your heart. Your lungs have lost capacity and you really must stop smoking.” Doctor Beagrie gave the overweight, bad-tempered man sitting in front of him a serious look. The nurse appeared and escorted Orson to the pharmacy,
Stubborn Seniors
“I thought the social worker was coming over to cook your food and clean the kitchen,” Carmen turned to face her grandpa. “I fired her,” Orson muttered. “She was too nosy and she never stopped talking.”
strewn
Carmen took the packet of papers, thanked Doctor Beagrie and shouted out, “Come on, Gramps, let’s go!” Carmen drove her grandfather to his home and helped him inside. There was a huge mess in the kitchen and the trash-strewn living room made Carmen sigh with disgust.
Carmen threw down her bag and exhaled loudly. “Don’t worry, Gramps, I’ll do it.” She stomped into the kitchen and began collecting the food-encrusted dishes. She had already missed her volleyball game because she had had to take Orson to the doctor, she might as well stay and clean.

“Well, Gramps, if you aren’t going to let someone come in and help you, you are going to have to clean this mess up yourself.” Orson sat down on the couch and turned the TV on. “You know I can’t stand up that long. Your mother will clean up when she comes over on Sunday.”
Then he started needing to have prescriptions picked up, and help getting groceries, and he could no longer cook or clean for himself. It seemed like every day she was having to do something to help him. Carmen didn’t understand why he was still living alone in his house if he couldn’t actually do anything for himself.
