Arrival

11 days at my Nani's (maternal grandmother) and 11 at my Amma's (paternal grandmother). My days are set. Right now, I'm at my Nani's while my cousins still have vacations. After spending some time with my Dad's business friends, my family from my Dad's side came to pick me up from Ahmedabad, where I flew in from Dehli. I stayed with them the first night. It was so shocking to see Amma, lying on the bed, stick thin and face sunken. Its so hard to imagine life like that. Both my grandmothers have begun to talk about how they won't be here for long; but I guess they're at peace with it, and at this point in their lives, probably welcome it.
Anyway, after the first night, I went to my Nani's (this was Thursday). I can't really remember much of what I did the first day, but that's how time goes here. My little sis (Minna)and I pretty much laugh 24/7 and act like little kids all the time. Time goes like that.
