Grandmother's Birthday

My grandmother celebrated her birthday on Friday. She was born in 1925. On Friday afternoon, she asked me to buy some lottery tickets. In a piece of paper, she wrote two numbers: 2366 and 6623. I recognized the 23 number because her birthday is on November 23, but I was curious about the 66.

I went to the supermarket and bought her lottery tickets. When I returned home with the lottery tickets, I questioned her about the 66 number. She answered seriously, “66 is my age.” I frowned, “No grandma, you turn 87 today.” She looked at me incredulously.

Unfortunately, something bad is starting to happen in her mind.

    Casi perfecto Alex, bien escrito. Sorry to hear about your grandma, unfortunately it happens to us all eventually and it is very sad when this happens to someone close to you.
