Pamela Drury: What happened? Well?
Pamela Dickson: I guess I had to find out.
Pamela Drury: Find out what?
Pamela Dickson: What would have happened if I had said no to Robert. Do you think I never wondered? What if I hadn’t had children? What it would feel like to have my own time, my own money, my own bed. What it would be like to sit down and read a whole book or a whole chapter or even a whole page without being interrupted. To remember who I am, not “Darling” or “Mummy” or “Dummy” or “Mum.” Just me. Pamela.
