Grandmother is still alive, but terribly tired. She has been very talkative, and we can't understand her most of the time. She's been talking about her parents and relatives. I did find out that she has a health proxy that states she neither wants to be resuscitated nor intubated. I can totally understand that. She knows who I am, and knows I was there last night. She can recognize Norah Jones singing. She wants to eat ice cream. She misses wearing her housecoat since she has no pockets and can't put her tissue there for safe keeping. Her six children, nine grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren and husband of 62 years want her to get well.
