text: Hello everyone! I'm not a usual poster but I'm not exactly sure where to post this question. If this isn't a good sub for this, please let me know and I'll ask elsewhere! My Grampa is over 90 now, and has been living great--still driving around, living alone in his house, self sufficient. Recently he has slipped on ice and his neck is now broken. He's stable but has no feeling from the chest down... He's gone from living a solid life to just laying in bed all day at the hospital. He's being moved but I can't imagine how ungodly bored he must be. I'd like to go read him something but I have no idea what might be appropriate. He's lucid and he's really intelligent. His brain is working fine. He is Lutheran, knows I'm atheist, and doesn't mind. I wanted maybe something kinda metaphorical or just generally interesting or... Yeah I'm really lost as to where to start. My other grandparents that have been in similar situations were when I was very young. My rambling aside, would anyone happen to have a recommendation as to something kinda short I could read to him? I don't wanna pick something and have it be lame or patronizing or something.
