Update on My Grandma

Hi everyone,


I just wanted to post a little update about my grandma since a few people here have asked or remembered from my earlier posts.





She’s been doing a bit better lately — she’s more responsive and aware, which has been a big relief for us. Right now, she still has a feeding tube because she can’t eat by mouth, but she’s comfortable and the nurses say she’s doing well overall. I’ve been spending time with her and talking to her, and I know she knows I’m there.
We even have conversation





It’s been an emotional time, but I’m grateful for every sign of something good and the care she’s receiving. Thank you to everyone who’s checked in or offered support — it really means a lot.

How nice that she is comfortable and being taken care of. Grandmother's are so very special. :)

Good to hear. Soak in the atmosphere and the stories all that you can with her. I'm sure she is full of wisdom and experiences to share, and I'm sure they will stay with you all of your days. I certainly appreciated all of the conversations with my grandparents, and I catch myself saying or doing as they did quite often. Further well wishes to you both.
 
Thanks for the update, @Jenisautistic. It’s wonderful to hear what you shared. Time spent together and her knowing she is loved are the most important things.

It’s good to hear she’s a bit more responsive and that she knows you’re with her. Spending time like that matters and you’re giving her comfort in a hard moment. I’m glad the nurses say she’s doing well overall. You’re doing the right thing by being there for her.
