My paternal grandmother died at the age of 99 from the complications of a broken hip. She smoked Camel straights from the time she was 16 until 3 months before she died. I think she died because they forced her to quit smoking when she was in hospital. Not that I'm advocating smoking, but people die because of all kinds of things. I don't think my mom will die from having the odd glass of Coke. And yes, she likes the notion of pulling one over on my brother. He can be somewhat overbearing, but I love him anyway.

The doc prescribe a small shot of sherry before lunch and dinner, this did the trick.

Nb for obvious reasons the sherry was kept in her bedroom, after 5 days she asked for another bottle I gently said Ma dont you think you should take it easy, she laughed and said Darling I never drink on my own. Her two friends both in wheel chairs come to visit. My kid brother wants to bug the room
This is Mum at 93yrs

What a sweet lady, Bolas! She sounds like a real fun character!
