My Grand Mother In-law is hiding in inside.

She is not the same person she was when I met her 20 years ago.

An old folks home has taken her spirit as she cant take care of herself.

She stares into nothing and is trapped inside the body that was once a quick witted, snappy, independant older woman.

Where has she gone? I miss her.

    Thanks Jessie, Naun was a riot and breaks her shell every once in a while.
    Time has stood still for her. She is still very much in tune with her life but just not the same.
