Today's #grandma recordings contained another five, in which I was summarizing talks I had with her. Those are sorted out for the moment. Together with the three recordings, I just transcribed, I have 112 left.
The only recording of February 2023 and the last before her COVID infection, was me asking her details about the two children, her father allegedly had from other women. But she didn't know a lot.
Then came the recordings of me reading from the notes I had taken while she was in hospital. At one point, she started talking and talking and I just grabbed a paper from her food/cutlery wrapping and started taking notes, before I asked a nurse for more paper. All of that was done masked and with protection gear worn over my clothing - she still was in COVID isolation.
A few days later, her odyssey began: They brought her to her home, where somehow the hospital forgot to mention the fact, that she's not able to stay on her feet anymore. So my parents had her taken back. First it looked like she would get a space in a nursery home over 35 km away. Luckily, it didn't work out and she got one 12 km away from me. I visited her every week, trying to get as many recordings as possible.
Now the recordings of her in freedom are done and I'm stuck with those from her last six months in the nursery home.
In one of the first ones, she told me how Baby Flo "the most beautiful baby of the world" 😍, was put outside with the buggy. His mother hadn't put a tissue in front of him, although grandma had told her to. At one point, there was a lot of yelling: a wasp hat flown into his hand, which he squeezed and got stung for it.
