Nice that she's still around for you to do that. All of my grandparents are gone long ago but I did get some stories out of them. My grandma's family was so poor during the war time, they had to just eat whatever they found (usually grown outside). My great grandpa died fighting the nazis

INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL. SAME WITH HER BUT IN ASIA. MY GRANDFATHER SPENT YEARS OF HIS CHILDHOOD IN A JAPANESE LABOR CAMP.
UNFORTUNATE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE FORGOTTEN THE LESSONS OF OUR PAST.
It often feels like that event was lifetimes ago, and yet there it is reverberating through your family. Sobering.
