when I was kid my grandfather teached me a lot of important things about life .

last time I went there to visit him , after we talk a lot he said that Im a nice guy and to come to visit him again any time I want ,after that he turned to my grandmother and asked ,Maria who is this nice guy?

Before I left I said to him, dont you worry if you dont remember me , because I will never forget you .

this brought a tear to my eye. my grandmother suffered from alzheimers for many years before i was born, my earliest memory (age 5) of her is her sat in a nursing home just babbleing, she was unable to talk.

As a child it never really bothered me because i didnt understand, but as i grew older and after her death it started to affect me, i never could have a relationship with her even though i wanted one so badly. I am now 16 and a (informal) volunteer for the south warwichshire branch.
