  Melly and Anny Beth are fifteen - and can no longer drive a car. Soon they won't be able to walk...or feed themselves. They had both lived full lives - Melly was one hundred years old, and had been left in a nursing home, waiting to die. Then Melly and Anny Beth were selected for Project Turnabout and were given an injection to make them grow younger. It worked - but the follow-up shot, which was supposed to stop the unaging process, has killed everyone who has taken it. Melly and Anny Beth have left the project and taken care of themselves for the past eighty-five years. But who will take care of them when they can no longer take care of themselves?
