This is so true...My grandmother loved working with her hands..She was wheelchair bound but that didn't stop her from filling her days with activities.. She drew the pictures that would end up on the Christmas cards that would be sent to families, she was always involved in arts and crafts and loved it.. I supplied her with everything she needed to keep busy and she would make dolls, jewelry, quilts, all sorts of things.. She died last Sept. and I miss her everyday.. You knew she was happy if she had a project going..We have to always remember that just because they are old doesn't mean that they can't function, its amazing what they can do with a little encouragement.. Thanks for this article, it brought all sorts of memories back..
