Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving. A time to appreciate loved ones.
Sitting on the couch, smelling the delicious aroma of the turkey, George watches his grandchildren play Monopoly with his son, Tom. The laughter of their tiny voices brings joy to his heart. Watching them brings back memories of his childhood, fishing with his dad and his proud voice when he made his first catch.
The meal finally makes it to the dining room table and Tom will do the honors of slicing the turkey.
George’s aide helps him to the table. He sits and savors every moment, knowing this is his last Thanksgiving.
