Poland

Earlier this week Mike's grandma died So Mike will be going to Poland next Wednesday to attend the funeral. We stayed with Mike's Grandpa when we were in Poland during our honeymoon, and I was really touched by how much love his grandma and grandpa had for one another. Every day Grandpa {who is 92} would take the train and then walk the remaining half mile to the old folks home grandma lived in .He would spend several hours with her moving her joints, massaging her muscles, and walking her around the room. And grandpa would always bring grandma something sweet to eat.

Mike & Bille,

I am sorry for your family's loss. I hope that when Cat or I am/is in assisted living we would have the type of love and dedication to eachother required to live that way.
