Mrs McWeeney Was Dry, Tight, Small, and Pig-Eyed

Question 8

Essay

Mrs. McWeeney was dry, tight, small, and pig-eyed. She had hard gray hair pressed into waves that grasped her scalp like a migraine… . She wore a creaky white uniform and spongy ripple-soled nurse shoes that she painted white every week; we could watch the paint cracking and peeling off between Monday and Friday… .
Mrs. McWeeney was unpredictable. She'd gnarl her face up for no reason while giving us our bedtime meds and slam back into the nursing station without a word. We'd have to wait for her to calm down before getting our nightly [medicine]; sometimes we waited for as long as half an hour.
