About 2 months ago said grandmother (almost 93), fell down while bringing in some groceries (still driving herself to the store...can't tell her any different, ffs) and broke her hip...luckily someone saw her fall. After getting her bearings after surgery etc, my mom asked her is she wanted anything from home...makeup and curler!!
?
She's in decent shape for her age but rarely, if ever, drank and never smoked. Exercise was a foreign word to her though, apart from yard work. Raised three daughters on her own; my grandfather (who I'm named after) passed away at 35 from Hodgkins lymphoma; they think from Agent Orange in the Korean War. I'm going over to my aunts tonight to see them as she' staying there right now (we're doubting her days of independence will come again). She has their old wedding picture up somewhere, I'll see if I can grab a shot.
