My grandma’s eyesight has gotten bad enough she’s now legally blind. So I’ve been taking pictures of all the photos she has in carefully organized albums and putting them on my iPad. As it has a big enough screen for her to see them.....
She’s been looking through them like that for about 3 hours and is having such an amazing time. I feel so awesome that she’s enjoying herself this much.

And yes, she does have these mysterious candies that only show up in grandma houses.

GODDAMMIT. Now I'm crying AND I miss my grandma. You are a good boy. Now go eat a strawberry candy for me.

We have those candies at my work and they are somehow not as good. Grandmas add extra power

My mom is legally blind - we send her photos via WiFi onto a Nixplay and it’s actually quite awesome

Dreading the day this happens to my grandmother. Spent almost every day with her from age 1-18. I love her more than life itself.

Where do grandparents even get those candies?

The crazy part is... she doesn’t even do her own shopping anymore! I’m pretty sure the Patron Saint of Grandma candies dropped them off.

She has about 30 albums worth of pictures. I’ve only gotten through 6, there are plenty originals!

This is too cute. I think he means werther's originals, it's also a candy, known to be in grandma's house/purse.

You’re a good grandkid. Now ask her about her childhood and how she met your grandpa. And the stories behind the pics

Write it all done if you can. My grandpas were both gone by the time I came along and I lost my grandmas early too because of it. Treasure 1

those stories and keep as much as you can. You'll be amazed at how much it means once they aren't there. Record her talking too. It helps.
