When it is your time. We all have a purpose .Don’t cheat your grandkids out of enjoying your company, taking you for “walks” drawing you happy pics....learning to care for others.

Amen. In the last months of her life my grandmother was not in her right mind. I still treasure our times together. They were the best we ever had.

One of my fondest memories...April 1st , several years ago my 90’s y’o grandmother was in the hospital. Her arms were restrained because she kept pulling her IV out. She was not a happy camper. I sat beside her and untied her. My mom and aunt were fussing about “she's gonna pull it out” and left the room in a huff. My confused grandmother looked around and asked me if she was ok. I assured her she was and whispered something in her ear. When my Aunt and mom came back in I told them they were right and she pulled it out again. They both got close and looked and my mamo got a big grin on her face and held up her arm with the IV intact and yelled “April Fools!”
