getting
old
My
grandfather
is
getting
old.
When
I
was
younger,
my
grandfather
would
carry
me
on
his
shoulders,
and
we would
go for a walk.
Now,
my
grandfather
cannot
put
me
on
his
shoulders.
He
has
a
hard time
walking,
and
he uses
a
cane.
My
grandfather
used to
have
lots of
hair.
Now
he
is
bald.
His
skin
doesn't
look like
it
used to.
It
is
more
wrinkled.
My
grandfather
takes
more
naps
than
he
used to.
He
goes
to
the
doctor's,
and
he
takes
pills
for
his
heart.
I
love
my
grandfather
very much.
I
don't like
the
fact
that
he
is
getting older,
but
my
mother
says that
growing older
is
just
a
fact
of
life.
She
says that
we
will
all
get older.
Sometimes
my
grandfather
forgets
things.
My
mother
says
to
be patient.
I
am
patient.
I
try
to help
my
grandfather
as much as
I
can.
I
sometimes
go
for walks
with
him.
I
help
him
to
walk
when
he
has trouble.
I
cheer
him
up
if
I
think
he
might
be
sad.
I
get
things
for him,
and
I
even
read
to
him
at
night.
He
used to
read
to
me
when
I
was
little.
Now
his
eyesight
is
bad,
and
he
can't
see
very well.
My
grandfather
tells
me
stories
about
when
he
was
a
boy.
The
world
was
a
very
different
place
then
he
tells
me.
His
stories
are
interesting.
Sometimes
I
wish
we
could
trade places
for
a
day
so that
I would
know
what
it
felt like
to be
old.
My
grandfather
doesn't
complain.
He
jokes
about
his
old
bones.
I
spend
a lot of
time
with
my
grandfather.
I
hope that
he
is
around
for
a long time
