Recently, my mother tried to enroll Gramps in an Alzheimer’s Day Care program at the local hospital.
His first session went really well, and he was completely impressed by the blind woman who was able to play the piano.
The next session was a little less eventful, and I could tell he was losing interest fast.
So, in an effort to keep him excited about the program, I would try to talk it up whenever possible.
So one day I was driving him to work and I said, “So you are going to go that program tomorrow?”
He said “Nah, I don’t want to go.”
I asked “Why?”
“Too many OLD people there,” he replied.
Gramps is 94 years-old.
