Andy came this weekend to see Grandjo and visit us, and he spent a good while talking to her last night while Dan and Catherine came over and played with Dan's new puppy and made some bellbottoms for Hair. I went to watch the New Doctor who in the garage and keep Catherine company at the sewing machine. I hadn't talked to Grandjo in quite awhile, except in passing at my reception when she wasn't doing so well and I went by in my dress with Joodles to buzz my hair and she asked me if I'd been arrested (I told her no, I'd just sung a recital).
This afternoon Andy preempted my other procrastinations and watched three episodes of 'Allo 'Allo with me, and at the end of the last one, he got up quickly at the beckoning of David and went and talked quietly with them in my mom's room. Grandjo died about an hour ago. They called all the siblings they could reach. Corita came over and did whatever you're supposed to do and called people and now there's an ambulance outside and they notified the police. Why do they do that?
I don't know what I think about whether she's "better" now, but her life was pretty hard lately. She was the one who knew everything, and lately she couldn't pursue logic, and argued all the time about the delusions she had and how we were all wrong, and when she knew she wasn't making sense it must have been horrible. I remember right when she came off the anaesthesia when she first went to the hospital it upset her terribly that she knew she had ten kids and couldn't remember any names past the first four, and her mind brought forth "Scissors" as a possible alternative and she knew she didn't name any of them that. If all the electricity has stopped now, at least so have the misfires. But I don't think she was suffering badly enough that lack of any consciousness at all would be preferable.
She was very tired, though. Now she won't ever be tired again.
