About the Hidden Hero and their story
My grandmother was one of my absolutely favorite people. She died the summer I got married, after living with dementia for years. She was always so intensely herself, and I wanted to share some of that -- she was both wonderful and, like all the best people, a little quirky. She was notoriously impatient, and that was to me the detail I wanted to include the most. I've been using this to tell my daughter about the great grandmother she'll never meet.

Through this simple exercise, I was able to feel a bit of being there with your grandmother, so congrats for achieving that :)
Thank you.
