Cool “assistive Living” images
A few nice assistive living images I found:
another country
Image by suttonhoo
My grandmother thinks I’m a stewardess.
This is what she told the kind woman at
the front desk at the assistive living facility
where she lives. I suspect she strung this
together when I explained to her that yes,
I’ve been in town since Sunday when we spent
that nice day together. Remember Grama,
when I took you to church? And then we hung
out all day, telling stories and laughing and then
crying because I live so far away? She doesn’t.
But she knows I’m here now, and she’s excited
to see the marzipan pastry that I’ve brought her
from the pirogi place in the market. She remembers
when we flew to Norway together and ate
chocolate covered marzipan. It’s just remembering
this week that’s tough. I’ve been working Grama,
and now I have to go to the airport. I suspect
that’s where it came from — work, airport,
stewardess.
Old age is another country from which she
ocassionally dispatches postcards — some make
no sense, as if she’s touched by the fever, others
are perfectly clear, like when we seated ourselves
next to the Christmas tree in the lobby and she
talked of their tree, the one they set up with the
kids, her kids, one of them my father. "Your Bompa
was so particular about his tree. You know your
Bompa." And her eyes fill with tears, a smile
crosses her face.
I do, Grama, I do. And yes, so do you.
[Found this Seattle Times clipping among my
grandmother's things -- it was shot at some kind of
fundraiser in 1947. That's her in the middle. My beautiful grama.
