My mother, mother of seven, came out in her mid 40's after she and my father separated. My "good christian" sister, refused to allow my mother to see her then only grand children. It was ok as long as mom was in the closet, but when she taught herself how to ride a motorcycle... that was just too much!

Good luck Gay Grandmother!
