I went to see Mrs. Avalon. She lives with her niece Karen. She is a shy lady who does not say not much. She has spent some of her life time a lone. she only receives letters from her grand children. Although, she is a person who does not says much of the time I spent with her talking she was so sweet to talk about her life. This are some things that she told me that she like to do in her house. She loves to see golf and play puzzles and also watch TV show of Family game like Jeopardy. She also like to play card but she like to spend time alone. She also thinks about their children and how they are doing but she loves to talk when she start to know you and she will tell her more about her. She told me that she use to be a nurse and she help out in War and she had a good friendship with her sister (mother of Karen). Avalon loved spending a lot of time time with her sister. She is happy to have someone of her family close to her.
I had a good time with Mrs. Avalon and talking to her it made me happy to spend time with her as she was shy to talk I was telling her about me and that I was doing a class work and I need her help. She smile and say to me, "I will help you but i don't talk much, but you look like a nice girls and i want to know you too." So i did had a great time with her. I got some times to meet her and talk to her more and see TV shows that she likes and play cards too.
It was sweet of you to take time out your day to actually sit down and get to know her. She sounds like a really nice person. As they get older it's so important that elders have people in their life to brighten their day. I hope you get to spend more time with her in the future.

ReplyDeletei love to hear your experience with Mrs Avalon. She was so sweet. We can learn a lot from older people like us. we should spend more time with them due that they need company and care. It was so nice of you to give your time to hear and listen about her life.
