Big Mama


My grandmother has Alzheimer's. She's not making a whole lot of sense anymore, but once in awhile she reminds us that she's still in there - and she's still pretty damn funny.

My aunt Jackie didn't feel like cooking today and tried to convince my grandmother that cereal sounded like a good idea. "Mama, how about some Cheerios?" she said brightly.

Big Mama blinked at her. "How about some meaty-o's?" she countered.

It worked; Jackie cooked.
