Grandma has recently been made wheelchair bound and mostly bed bound now because of the ulcers on her heels. She is instructed to keep her feet up all day and avoid walking as much as possible. Anna and I were eating dinner with G on her first day in the chair and Grandma kept saying things like, "I need to be able to walk and be independent."
Anna told her those were unrealistic expectations. "Grandma, I can't need to be in a size four dress, because it is never going to happen."
Grandma responded, "That's true for Esther too."
She waited a full minute and finished the sentence, "you know, with her needing to finish school sooner and stuff."
Yeah, uh huh, I'm sure that's what you meant, Grandma.
