My sweet grandmother turned 92 yesterday, December 8. We use to have a big celebration with her every year but this year we could only speak with her through video call. Not the ideal but it was the best choice. We must protect her as she is in the risk group. Next year we will make a big party with the all family. We feel blessed for having her and we ask God to protect and give her health to be some more years with us.

A happy, belated birthday to your grandmother - wow, 92! I do think it's best that you are all protecting her this year . . . I hope next year will be much better and that she has a wonderful party then.

Congrats on your grandma making it to her 90's. My mother-in-law is 91. We didn't visit this year because no one from the outside is allowed in her nursing home.

I wish a belated happy birthday to your grandmother. I agree that video calls are not the best, to be honest I prefer a phone call to a video call.

@nela13 I know, but the quality of video calls is most of the time pretty bad. Of course physical presence is another matter.

Thank you! Video calls allow us to see each other but the physical presence is always better.

@LadyDuck that is true, sometimes it is awful making a video call, sometimes we don't have the image or the sound...

Next years party would be something to look forward to. How is the quality of her life? I mean in terms of mobility and ability to do things she enjoy?

So she was born on the feast of Immaculate Concepcion. I wonder if she’s named after her patron saint. Happy birthday to her.
