GRANDMOTHERBLOGGINGONLINEMAGAZINEING: My grandmother turns 91 in a little over a week; we had a get-together today with her, my mother, my sister, and assorted family kids (plus one neighbor kid who showed up). She got out of the nursing home skilled nursing facility a couple of weeks ago, and is living with my mom now. She can get up and down, and walk some, on her own, though she’s mostly mobile via wheelchair and walker. The physical therapy is continuing to help, though her balance isn’t what it used to be.

Still, she’s in good spirits, generally, and had fun hanging out with all the great-grandchildren. That’s not bad, when you’re 91.
