After she tessers with her father and Calvin out of camazotz what happens to meg

Meg begins to slowly awaken from her tesser and she can hear her father’s voice and Calvin’s voice, but she cannot open her eyes or talk to them. She can hear them saying that they can finally hear her heartbeat, though they couldn’t for a while. She wants to call out to them to let them know that she’s alive, but she can’t move her mouth or her tongue.

Meg sees her father and Calvin, but not Charles Wallice. She realizes that she is lying in a field of “rusty, stubby grass.” She notices that her father and Calvin are both wearing short sleeves while she feels frozen. She realizes that she is actually frozen and it restricts her movement so that even her mouth doesn’t move to form words.
