Being a prisoner of her imaginary world , she is gradually, not noticing, that her life turns into hell.
All what a paralyzed person can do is watch and listen not reciprocate . The contrast of life threatened patient verses the constantly complaining visitor creates allegory . But unfortunately she doesn’t realize it . On a contrary the visitor seams emotionally paralyzed . Time after time she blows her daily choices out of proportions , making her life seams unbearable , although it’s her own choices .
Over the years, it becomes obvious that she has turned into a monster, tormenting not only herself but people around her .
She confesses a murder of her lovers wife which then leads to a death of her lover . He couldn’t bear his wife’s sudden death .
And only after that chain of events she realizes how many mistakes she had done , but what’s done is done and there is not way to turn time back .
