35,150 Days of wisdom & experiences. Ask her anything imgur!

Happy 96th Birthday!

This is my great grandma She just turned 96 this year. She may be old but she's still young at heart. She smoked for most of her life and she puts salt in absolutely everything including here beer (which she still drinks on weekend and party's). Unfortunately she won't be around much longer since she has been diagnosed with lung cancer so before she kicks the bucket I want to do an interview with her and give everyone in the imgur community the chance to ask her questions about anything and everything. She has lived through WW2 the Great Depression and everything in between. She has over 35,000 days of wisdom and experiences and would love to share them with everyone. Post your questions in the comments and we will start filming this month!

She's always smiling!

Doesn't matter what we are doing she always manages to put a smile on our family's face! She's a bit "traditional" though so be warned! You don't want to talk about the liberals or trump.

Her 95th Birthday

This was what she wanted to do for her 95th birthday. On her 94th birthday she made us get her a joint for her from the neighbours. I have a Video of that day somewhere I will try to upload it soon.

Does she regret not doing anything specific?

Get your family history! I know it's personal but I regret not asking my grandmother more before she passed. What is her favorite decade?

I did our extended family tree on Genii with my grandmother's help, going up to her great grandparents. She passed away 6 months later.

Compared with the childhood of a modern child and your grandmother's childhood, who can have more fun?

Ask her what was the hardest thing she's ever done.

That would defiantly be interesting to know! She went through so much and moved to Canada by herself when she was really young.

For me, the answers are (a) standing up to a bully for the first time, and (b) speaking at my grandmother's funeral.

My grandfather was a German soldier in WW2 and spent 5 years in a Siberian work camp. He passed away in December just as I was going (1/2)

Start writing some of his stories down. There were some hectic ones. He got taken prisoner at the age of 17 ten days before the War ended
