>>>>Wonder why your Great Grandma would choose to handle it that way? I'd guess she believed she was doing best for the kids....

At the time my Grandma, Nana, was 7, the oldest...there was one sibling behind her for almost every one of those years. When World War II came on Great Grandma Hora had 3 stars in the Window and lost all 3 of those Sons in battles.(as a family we can watch something like saving private ryan and relate)...ie...tell me I led a good Life. Moreso...did you? Was it worth it? Am I a good Man?

I'm a survivor of the female side of that family.

Ed, she didn't even talk about it till I asked her this past Thanksgiving. I didn't know my Nana had brothers.

Never knew she had Brothers, humbled. Secrets....

FWIW...my Nana has always used the expression, "oh my stars" when in distress.

I just gotta know what that means.

Meantime my other Grandma is 100 years old this year born in September 1900. Nana is 87 and she'll pass that mark too with a breeze IMO, perhaps 107-115.
