My Grandmother Pretended to Be Deaf to Test Us before Dividing the Inheritance \u2013 Everyone Got What They Deserved Love, as my late grandmother used to say, is the greatest bequest. Her children were so ungrateful that it took her acting deaf and a startling will reading for them to realize what she really meant.While you can, treasure your grandparents. Squeeze them close, say \u201cI love you,\u201d and make memories with them that will provide you comfort even after they pass away. Because those will be the only things you have left when the time comes. I\u2019m Emily, and I\u2019m going to tell you how my 89-year-old Grandma Rosalind impacted my life forever by teaching me this invaluable lesson.It happened when I was fifteen. I was happy to spend time with Grandma Rosalind while my pals were preoccupied with their beach parties and summer flings.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Her smile with her dimples always brightened my day. One day, Grandma murmured, \u201cEmily, dear,\u201d in a gentle, loving voice. \u201cWould you like to help me with the garden later?\u201d I excitedly nodded, disregarding my uncle\u2019s rolling of his eyes from across the room. He was never able to figure out why I was bothering the \u201cold lady\u201d. \u201cYour summer is being wasted, Em,\u201d said my Uncle Bill. \u201cWhy don\u2019t you come to the beach with us instead?\u201dI gave him a fierce look. \u201cUncle Bill, I genuinely care about my grandmother. You ought to give it a go sometime.\u201d Grandma\u2019s hands trembled a little, and I noticed it while we pruned the roses together. The fact that she was growing older alarmed me. \u201cGrandma,\u201d I spoke softly. \u201cYou know I love you, right?\u201dShe stopped and gave me that sweet look.<\/strong><\/p>\n
