mortality

[norcumi]

My 89 year-old grandmother is... not doing so good. I talked with my parents tonight, and - things like she got new, digital hearing aids - and she heard the spring peepers "for the first time in 8, 9 years". She's putting up the expected fight against using a walker, though her right leg is going, and......

My parents talk about tearing down her falling apart house, selling their own, and building a combined dream house on the 30 odd acre property which is the base for the clan's land.

I don't think she'd survive long enough to see it. I don't know if my parents think this is a pipedream, if they're ignoring that, or if they need that something to hold onto.

just makes me wanna cry.

I don't know how I'm going to handle a similar situation when it comes up, which it will eventually. : \
