You and Granny are lucky to have each other. Thanks for sharing such a touching story. If there is a heaven - and I think there is - your tender act of kindness has surely one you a spot there.

Even the closest relationships sometimes benefit from a little judicious distance. I'm sobbing like Paula Abdul! Gosh, that was rather lovely.

It's the little things which tell the truths of a person's character. Granny gets to retain her dignity and keep her little secrets, and you've (again) shown an integrity that is often rare these days. You're a good man. Tony, this made my eyes tear-up.

Little incidents of forgetfulness, simple acts no longer performed, and sudden dependencies all foretell a truth we do not wish to accept. I deal with this daily. I struggle with an eighty-five yr old invalid mother. I know what you are experiencing far more than you know. It's not easy, but at the end of the day, You are a Good and Faithful Grandson. What better could be said of you on Granny's behalf? Such incidents leave one with a sense of sadness, because they underscore a realization that “what was” is coming to an end.

You’re right. Sometimes you have to play a little game or tell a white lie in order to preserve dignity. It’s not always the easiest, but it’s better in the end. You did a good thing there.
