a visit to grandma
October 11th, 2009 . by adminIt was a quiet Saturday afternoon. No one was home and I was feeling a little lonely. I sat in my room staring at the pictures on the wall. It was the picture of me and my grandma whom I fondly call Nana which caught my eye and I decided to pay her a visit in the nursing home. I drove all the way across town to the facility which she stayed in. She had been 6 months since the family put Nana in the facility when her Alzheimer’s got worse. I found Nana was sitting in a wheelchair beside the Brasilia Espresso Machine. She always loved the smell of coffee. She was staring out the windows blankly. I called out to her and she looked at me but the expression on her face told me that she didn’t recognize her. I walked over and sat beside my Nana and gave her a big hug. I spent the rest of the afternoon talking with my grandma.
