This is a true story, by the way.
My mother, who is in her 70’s, has an uncle who is over 90, who lives in Bethesda Maryland, in a retirement community there. For anyone who doesn’t know, Bethesda is just north of Washington D.C. He lives just a couple of miles north of the National Cathedral.
He has been having some memory issues, and she has been trying to get him moved into the memory unit of the same retirement community. There have been many issues, but I won’t get into that, other to say that some things she can do over the phone, but some have to be in person, so she has had to make several trips there. We live in Lubbock, Texas, so it’s not a simple trip.
She has just left on one such trip earlier this week. Partly because of that, I have been having some meals with my father at their retirement community. While I was there the other night, one of the other tenants asked my dad if she would be able to go talk some sense into Donald Trump. Without missing a beat, my father said “She’s only going to be there three days.”
