Grandma G. won’t recognize me

Date: 12/21/2023

I’m visiting grandma G.. She looks older, shorter, thinner… she paces with no goal in her house. She seems lost. When I announce myself like I always do, she seems startled. She doesn’t recognize me and is afraid. I’m broken-hearted. I look at her and tears well into my eyes. Grandpa L. appears and I tell him “she doesn’t recognize me!”. He puts a hand on my shoulder to comfort me.
