This is eerie, and I mean this complimentarily. Maybe uncanny is the word I'm looking for. I was so, so close to my grandmother, closer than I was to my parents (and especially these days, 'am') and even though she died in 2006, I still miss her and think of her so often and from that time till now, I've never been able to confide in my parents the way I did with my beloved Granny. This was such a beautifully written, evocative piece, and only goes to show what a gifted and well-rounded writer you are.
