She lives alone, has lost two of her three children (including my father), and no one goes to visit her. I can't, I'm out-of-state. So I call her. She answered the phone last week and wept about the state of the nation, that she had nothing left to live for, and our country has been stolen. I asked her "have you been watching Fox News, Meemaw?" She answered yes... and I told her to stop before beginning to whitepill her with news of our fight. I admit that I was shocked when, afterward, she said she had learned more from me than an entire day of watching Fox. I asked if she would call me each afternoon so I could read TheDonald to her and let her know what's going on - and she has been calling daily. She says she sleeps better now, knowing that we are fighting and that the President is fighting. I tell her "relax, we've got this".

I sent her a MyPillow and told her to rest easy knowing that freedom is on its way.

PEDES, HERE IS YOUR MISSION: IF YOU HAVE A SIMILAR GRANDPARENT, DO THIS FOR THEM. CALL THEM AND GIVE THEM THE NEWS. TELL THEM THE TRUTH. WHITEPILL THEM. THEY DESERVE TO BE LIFTED UP IN THEIR LAST YEARS.

That is all.

This is the best thing I've read all week. Also... "Meemaw" <3 That is so sweet. Where are you from, I've never heard that term before. You sound like a wonderful grandchild and she is lucky to have you. God Bless You both!

I'm from all-over, but she is from the South. It's a deep-south term. Took me a long while to realize there are other Meemaws out there. God Bless you!

I thought maybe the south! That's just wonderful. So glad you are able to calm her and bring her hope and cheer courtesy of this crazy amazing bunch of pedes. Thanks :) Tell her we all send her love and to have a happy bright winter!

PS- I started reading Trump's book Never Give Up and it helped reassure me of his indomitable spirit. May be a good read for her free time between calls.
