Reply #25: Grandma [View All]

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

I called both of them grandma. My dad's mom passed away when I was 11. My mom's mom is still alive. She'll be 90 in May. She's the only grandparent I have left. All my great grandparents died when my parents where still kids, so I never met them. My mom's dad died when she was 16, so I never got to meet him either. My dad's dad died when I was 8.

My parents were both born when their moms were right around 40, so there's a tremendous age gap in my family. I'm 25 and my only grandparent is almost 90. Most people I've met that are my age have great grandparents that are that are in their 90's and their actual grandparents are in their 70's.
