Grace when we experience a victory, Grace when we
experience defeat, Grace to persevere and not give up.

n 2013 there was great excitement in our
house. We could hear the kids shrieks of excitement ring through the house; “Nanna and Pops
are coming to visit!” We couldn’t wait, and finally the big day arrived. Poor mum and dad, the
kids wore them out!
As my mum and I spent time together chatting
and reminiscing on old times I started to notice
that at times she would demonstrate strange
behaviour.
Sometimes she would display a slight tremor in
her right hand. Now and then she would lose the
ability to make normal facial expressions, appearing to have a “mask-like face”.
She had difficulty walking at normal speeds and
had difficulty fully lifting her right leg, causing her
foot to “drag” behind the other foot. She would
also experience episodes of “freezing” where
she would not be able to move for several seconds.
