At the time, her forgetfulness made me sad, but looking back, I think I learned more about her as a person during those years. She wasn't a person to tell stories about herself, but we picked up a lot of details about her past through her confusing past with present.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09286499471595221231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2011936380845362530.post-51094784373185714072015-02-11T19:20:02.413-05:002015-02-11T19:20:02.413-05:00Thank you so much for this sensitive, caring and y...Thank you so much for this sensitive, caring and yet humorous approach to what is always difficult as a subject -- and to go through.

A very beautiful and poignant phrase for this post. Makes me sad to read but then makes those memories of the past even so much more special. What a great picture of the two of them.Lisa Mincklerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10707109305523594370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2011936380845362530.post-25520838832569992992015-02-11T05:47:31.761-05:002015-02-11T05:47:31.761-05:00Oh dear..

Anyways, I'm glad it wasn't so bad with your Gram. Getting old ain't fun. That's for certain. But we are always the peeps we were as much as the peeps we are. Nice to 'know' your Gram as she was as much as she is, I say:):) And GO HAPPY PILLS!!!!Lizzy Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15635794099699316625noreply@blogger.com
