Sheila

This is my father's cousin Sheila who I call my Aunt as it's easier to explain to people.  She is 101 and has not been so well over the last month having a series of falls.   She gets very shaken and confused after these falls.  I am her next of kin and I am trying to see her more often although I think her dementia has increased.  She is very up and down but was quite sprightly this evening and so she is going to be my blip.

She was born in the country and lived most her life in various country locations.  She was a long time member of the CWA and she was a pretty sharp card player in her time.  She played lots of different games and taught me and my brothers quite a few different games. She loved nothing better than having card days and socialising.  Mainly bridge it was although she was very critical of her bridge partners skill.  She always dressed beautifully.  A good country woman as she would say.
