I remember going to my Grandmothers and in the closet were all the beautiful things we had all made for her. When the question was ask she said she was trying to save them we convinced her to let us put them all out. When I went back a week later everything was back in the closet. With our names on everything she said when I die you can have them and they will still be nice. And that’s what happened. I understand what you are saying
My neighbour’s elderly dad in his late 80s he loved going for walks but towards the last few years (after his wife died) he would often talk about “why am I still alive” he too was saying he doesn’t have long left. I wonder if at such an advanced age people don’t recognise the body they’re in any more, it’s not how they were and if they are grieving and also suffer from dementia this adds to their distress. Maybe once people get very old they are close to death each day and they can feel it? Or maybe it’s their mind playing tricks on them. I’ve heard doctors and nurses say that when a patient tells them they’re going to die, they’re often right? ❤
This is probably one of the most true comments I've ever read. After living with my mom for about 12 years and seeing her decline in every way, I have witnessed it first hand. My mom's problem is that she thought she was going to die the whole time and was regularly disappointed that she didn't. She just had too many longevity genes in here, I suppose. But she's with my dad now and is likely very happy. Thanks for watching!
That shirt looks fantastic on you! I enjoy your chats❤
Thank you so much!

Isn't it interesting how some people just won't use those things? I hope everything was in good condition when she passed so you could enjoy them!
