KK chap 12-13 response #1
During chapters 12-13, Lynn was so ill that Katie had to get whatever Lynn desired. After being commanded and bossed around for several weeks while at the same time recieving no respect or gratitude from her sister, Katie finally snapped. When Lynn asked for a glass of milk, Katie retrieved it like a good servant. But when she gave Lynn the milk, Lynn purposly dropped the milk on the rug and demanded that Katie fetch a glass of water. Again, Lynn dropped the water on the rug on purpose. After recieving so much abuse, Katie snapped and screamed at Lynn, saying that she's ruining the family and the house. This small incident may have ruined their friendship and sisterly bond forever.

Conor, yes it may have been the straw that broke the camel's back for both of them. I think you can see how stressful the situation must be for them both. Good paragraph.
