My older grandma just died on New Years day this year, and she was 96 I believe.. born in 1913 if I remember correctly. My grandpa on that side died around his 88th birthday. My grandma and grandpa on the other side are still alive but they're's only in their 70s (Maybe 71-72).
My great grandma on that side is still alive.. She's 99, and still kickin', good health, just a bit frail and slow.. I don't predict she'll be gone any time soon unless something crazy happens. She turns 100 late this year or early next year, I can't remember exactly. She lives at a retirement home in a private apartment and loves it because there are so many people there and so much to do, and she doesn't have to do any of her own cleaning though she insists she make her own bed daily (she's tiny, like under 5' and her bed is a queen.. must take her ages) because the people there don't do it right The only thing she doesn't like is that her friends keep dying and people regularly pass away at the dinner table; you never know if people are sleeping or dead.
I went to visit her and she was using a laptop and a DVD player. My mother who's 50 doesn't even know how to use a DVD player! My cousin has kids, so she's now a great great grandma too Gah, my great grandma is so cool.
It's me. My grandma is 82 (my mom's mom). Even though my mom died at the age of 62 my grandma is living healthy (living with me in pittsburg with my two daughters).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
