Visiting My Grandma Gilliam

My 94-year old Grandma doesn’t know us anymore, but she held our hands and showed us around the place. Started stacking dishes in the dining hall after dinner. She used to own a deli, and old habits stick around. She still has the same laugh. Still gets around pretty good, even after living with Alzheimer's Disease for more than twenty years.

My Dad visited her weekly until he got too sick. Alzheimer’s spared her from the pain of losing a son and a daughter within a year (my Aunt Myrna and my Dad). So thankful for the staff that love and care for her every day. I know how hard that job is. Thank you for taking such good care of my Grandma.
