SHE DIDN’T KNOW WHO I WAS—BUT SHE REFUSED TO LET GO

A Day That Changed Everything I never planned to stay so long. That morning, I only meant to take my grandmother to the hospital for a few quick tests. “We’ll be home by lunch,” I told myself. But the lab was slow, her blood pressure dropped, and suddenly—five hours later—we were still sitting in the waiting area. She shivered, even though the room was warm. I draped my coat over her lap and asked if she wanted water. She didn’t answer. Instead, she leaned into me, just like I used
