Thanks to you both. It was definitely one of those moments that I’ll remember forever — and I’ll be eternally thankful that I didn’t miss the opportunity. And a BIG thanks to Shari, who was a trooper and went with me despite the beginnings of her kidney stone episode.

my grandmother on my mom’s side hit the dimensia waves towards the end of her life, seeing her come ashore during visits certainly did help us a lot to remember how sweet she is/was. apertome and you both have it right, never know how many you’ll get, just be thankful when they arrive

I am so glad you got to see him acting more like himself — and that he opened up more than usual. That is fantastic. My grandmother had Alzheimer’s and it was so hard to see her in that state of confusion … but as you said you never know when there’ll be a good day, and those are something to cherish.
