Babci Wasacz

Polish

This is a picture of me with my grandmother, Babci. Her name was Sophie, but Babci is grandmother in Polish.
Babci had Alzheimer's disease and died in 1989. I was spared some of the odd things she said since she reverted back to speaking Polish. I only know a few words, including "na zdrowie" which means "cheers" or "to your health" and "dobja grish" which means "chew well".

This was taken in the 1980's at Christmas, in Babci's living room.
