Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Or else your packing would get really interesting!

Tee hee.

Jesse, good luck packing. Once I know I'm healthy (or not, or whatever....just a fricking answer would be nice, please), we'll have to have drinks in Boston.

Yes, please!

sounds to me like they were trying to hurt her. I don't know any grandmother who wouldn't remember their grandchildren.

Seriously.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Don't even acknowledge them.

Oh, that's cold. Does she want my mother? She'd kill for grandchildren and would appreciate them properly. I'd totally share.

I will say, I have handmade gifts from my grandmothers who love me, with my name (spelled) wrong. They had the basic idea, though!

The boys are her only grandkids. But her mom is trying to play favorites between her kids, but her kids are still staying friendly, just ruining SIL's relationship with them. I almost think her mother resented her getting her own life (they were really close before) and doing well, so it punishing her for it. It's fucked up.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Generally, people who get it as kids are OK. It's guys who get it as adults (or at least teenagers) who are at risk of becoming sterile, and that's actually not as common as it was once thought.

I can kind of picture my bad grandma doing this (though I don't know that she ever did). And it would have been 100 percent a slam at my mother.
