If Lennie were to live without George he would have a much more difficult life because George takes care of Lennie. George was in possession of Lennie’s workcard without Lennie even knowing that he didn't have it himself. Not only that but, that Lennie wouldn’t be able to survive with George because Lennie would not be able to get a job or make money without that workcard. Another reason would be that George cooks and provides food for Lennie. Lennie would not be able to provide himself with food because he forgot to get the firewood to cook dinner, he was too busy looking for his mouse. Since Lennie is incapable of finding his own work and getting food he would not be capable of taking care of himself.
Candy is an older man who lost his arm in an accident. Candy is the handyman around the farm. Candy has an older dog who he takes care of, just like George takes care of Lennie. I feel for Candy because he is getting older and it is harder for him to do work on the farm.
