We just had a polite chat as strangers on a train to Lakeland. She was going to visit Tony and his new wife (I have NO idea) but thinks she married him for his money.
Apparently I look JUST like her daughter so she took my picture with her tea glass. She called out "Nita! Nita! I want you to meet this girl!" She said "my daughter is so good. She's a great driver and a wonderful singer. She really took great care of me while I was sick" - I admit it... I cried a little...
We're off the train now & I have her back in bed. This has been a very difficult 24 hours. Its like play acting... except you realise quickly that she isn't acting. Today is the first time she hasn't known me... That was hard...
But for now, she sleeps...

I love you. I did the same thing with my grandmother found it wonderful to indulge her, but was critized by family for not telling her it wasnt true... I hope someone entertains my fantasies when I get old, cause sometimes reality can suck... did I mention I love you
(((((())))))) This is my giving you great big hugs. I love you and know this is hard and tiresome sometimes. I also think that you look just like my friend I have known and loved for a very long time; you'd like her...she is beautiful inside and out and has amazing talents! :)
