My father said those words as he lay dying of lung cancer in a cold sterile hospital room. At the time I was only 19 and in my mind capable of anything and of course knowing it all. I simply grunted in lack luster acknowledgment of my fathers words. Flash forward 23 years later and I find myself next to my 80 year old mothers hospital bed. I watch her sister gently and lovingly feeding her Jello, I watch and listen to my oldest sister reading to her. Twice a child I think! My mom is not on her death bed. She is though deathly afraid of doctors so her last 9 months of not eating and self medicating have landed her in the hospital where this time they are running every test under the sun. This time they will find something, I can only hope its something simple that will bring her back to adulthood....one more time! I love my mom! A prayer would be welcomed!

Heck my great gramma is 88 with a glass eye (no joke) and a walker but she has as much bite in her as the chile that my boyfriend eats. And JJ's great grandparents are really oldy pants too. But they're still pretty good. Kinda weird, but good.

My glass eyed gramma really isn't worthless. She bakes and cooks and quilts and does all sorts of house-wifey things to gift to the people she loves. Actually when I had a taste for lemon bars she was more than delighted to share her own recipe with me. Just cuz you're jealous you don't have a glass eyed granny doesn't make mine worthless. Fool.
