We started the day with a trip to see Grandma

Grandma always brightens up when she sees Alex. I was pleasantly surprised (and shocked) when she called him by name – especially after just asking us three times in a row what day it was.
A new Grandma Story:
My Mom and Aunt Beverly make sure that someone goes daily to visit my Grandma. This particular week my mom had noticed Grandma was sleeping quite a bit during her visits. She leans over and loudly (Grandma is a little hard of hearing) says, “Wake up. You have company.”
Grandma looks around and says, “Who?”
My Mom replies, “Me.”
Grandma looks at her and says, “You aren’t company.” and goes right back to sleep.

My grandmother has been living in an assisted living facility since my grandfather died a couple of years ago. She is having trouble with her short term memory, but has developed a great sense of humor. My mother often visits in the morning and this conversation took place during one of their morning visits.

My mom entered grandma’s room with a sausage biscuit for grandma and a Diet Coke for herself.

Grandma asked for a drink so mom poured her some of the Diet Coke.

Grandma comments, ‘This is some of the worst coffee I have ever had.”

Mom (assuming grandma is a little confused), “Mother, that’s Coke, not coffee.”

Grandma, “Well I know that. But it seems you should have coffee with a biscuit.”

I wonder how many times we assume someone older is confused when they are only making a joke and then how silly they think we are!
