I am 82 years old, have 4 children, 11 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and a 12 square meter room.
I don’t have a house or expensive things, but I have someone to clean my room, prepare food and bedding, take my blood pressure and weigh me.
You won’t hear the laughter of your grandchildren, you won’t see them grow up, hug or fight. Some come every 15 days, some come every 3-4 months, some never come.

I have a hobby, I like to read, but my eyes hurt quickly.

Don’t show this to my kids.
Grandma Maria loves you.
