I loved how you told everyone to always listen to their Grandmothers (in the above vitamin O thread) That is a piece of sage wisdom. I always get great advice from my Grandma, she's the only person (other than my great friends at babble) who really tries to understand me. She has trouble sometimes but her mind is always open to listen and not judge. She's extremely special to me. Thanks for reminding me of that.

My Grandma taught me more than anyone else in my life, and I miss being able to go to her now when I am in trouble. She had wisdom and knowledge that transcended time, and for that I will alwats be greatful. I wish we as a culture would spend more time listening to our Seniors, they have an incredible wealth of experience to be shared.

Your Grandma has a very wise grandson...

During group therapy we were asked to name the
most important person ever in our lives. My response
was my maternal grandmother, who died in 1978.I spent several summers living with her, spent 2 full
years living with her, and would ride my bicycle
20 miles to her house on weekends.She was the strongest, most loving and accepting
person I have known.I haven't thought of her in a while, and now tears are
are running down my face. Gotta go.

Hi hb - Thanks for sharing that. It made me think of both my Grammas and I'm going to spend some time after I sign off, to sit & remember some of my special memories about them.
Have a wonderful day. Kath

HB,
I often cry when I think about my Grandma, she raised me from the time I was 3 days old. Except now I don't cry from the loss of her, but from the joy she brought to my life. I hope your tears come from this very special place as well. Sounds like we were all VERY fortunate.

You're all very lucky to have had wise, sympathetic grandmothers. A lot of kids don't have anyone to go to when they have problems. Not everyone can run to a grandmother. I think that sometimes good kids from unsupportive families are seen as bad seeds rather than neglected children. I'm not referring to malicious children, rather to the unguided, unsupervised ones who aren't trying hurting anyone (perhaps just doing drugs, ditching school...). Although even malicious children are often that way because of abuse. I think that all of you had a very precious gift in life. Not everyone if lucky enough to receive that gift.

>I think it would do the world of good to have "Adopt-a-Grandparent" in all our schools. It would make the elderly feel needed and the kids would learn alot.
