When my grandmother called on Sunday morning, her voice sounded weaker than usual.

Learning New Languages

 

She was eighty-seven years old, and during the past few months, she rarely spoke on the phone for very long. Normally, she

would simply ask whether we had eaten, how the  children were doing, and when we were finally going to visit her.

But that day, there was something unsettling in her voice.

“Sweetheart, will all of you come to my house this evening?” she asked.

“Today? Grandma, has something happened?”

For several seconds, she said nothing. All I could hear was her heavy breathing. Then Grandma answered very quietly.

“I want us all to have dinner together one last time.”

already spoken to Grandma.

“She said the same thing to me,” Mom admitted tearfully. “I asked whether she had seen a doctor, but she refused to

answer.”
