Gram had the flu so the nursing home went under quarantine. I think a few other seniors also caught the flu so they were discouraging visitors. We had to wear masks and gloves in order to visit. I don't even think Gram knew she was sick but was coughing and super congested. I felt so bad for her. Earlier in the week, she was resigned to dying but I made her promise to hold on until I get married. And as sick as she was, she was alert enough to say "do you have a man?" Ummm, not right now but it's in the works?
Today when I visited her, she was better. No masks required. But she looked so tired and weak with huge bags under her eyes. Poor thing. I tried to engage her with different topics. But she wasn't responding other than everyone is useless. Then somehow my cats came up in the conversation and she started talking about how her family raised alot of cats and ate them in China. And the older the cats were, the better they taste. And it's the opposite with dogs, they taste better when they're younger! Who knew....
