Really great piece. Absorbing read.

My 3 year old son was talking to ‘grandpa’ at the foot of his bed one day.

There is no way he could have described grandpa to me in this life, so accurately.

As I walked towards my son, he said, “careful of grandpa’s stick”,

It was in fact my grandfather he was talking to. Who had a bad leg from a football accident in his 20’s. And walked with a stick.
