In the book, "Ask My Mood Ring How I Feel", the gate icon, Changes Over Time, is used when Mom hasn't got her mastectomy done.Time goes by and the day of her mastectomy arrives, she is taken to the doctor and stays there for a couple of days. On page 83, it mentions that Mom arrives after a few days wearing a shirt that buttoned down the front and Erica glanced at her chest and noticed that her right side was flat like an Amazon. To sum it all up, Mom had both her breasts before the mastectomy and overtime her right side was flat because she had the mastectomy done to her. Another example for the gate icon, Changes Over Time , is that after Mom got her mastectomy done, she started going to physical therapy. With Mom having breast cancer, she had to be at the doctors most of the time. As said in page 108, ... Mom started going to physical therapy ,so she left me in charge of Carmen and Jimmy for a few hours every afternoon. This means that overtime, Erica had to start taking care of her siblings every afternoon.
