[She quiets down, finally, looking almost somber.]
I was playing, when I got hit by a car... do you know what that is? Something like a carriage, which people drive around in. They're really fast and bigger than me, so they couldn't see me until it was too late.
I was really little then, so I don't really remember it, but ever since then, I couldn't move anything except my head; everything under my neck was paralyzed. I lived my life like that, always being cared for by my mother, until the day I died. She had to work really hard, because I couldn't do anything by myself and she couldn't afford any help.
