    This reminds me of my grandmother before she passed. Anyone with living grand parents, take the time to call them today and just talk to them, ask them how they are and try to make an effort to visit. You never know when they will be gone and you'll wish you could talk to them just one more time.

    • @TheBcoolGuy
      @TheBcoolGuy 8 років тому +3

      She's old, and old people don't have that much time left, which is sad. It's even more sad because she has so many awesome things to live, and likely not infinity to do it.

    • @wwb2081
      @wwb2081 8 років тому +3

      TheBcoolGuy But she's had a long life, and it's not necessary over yet if things like this are still happening to her. Plus she's 92! You'd be lucky to live even remotely that long.

    • @TheBcoolGuy
      @TheBcoolGuy 8 років тому +1

      Wyatt Button I said the opposite. Her life isn't over, but she's started to age. I don't want her to miss the awesomeness that her life will bring. That's what makes it sad. The probability of that happening.
      My grandma is turning 72, and she's in very good health. I think these thoughts about her, too. So it's not strange that I think these thoughts about a woman 20 years older than her.
      I'm 16. It's likely that people my age will average out at about 100.
      I hope that this lady is around for a long time, though! :)

    • @wwb2081
      @wwb2081 8 років тому +11
