Last weekend I went on Sunday visit to a nursing home in Englewood to visit my mother's Yugoslavian godmother. Even in her 90's Daniela has still managed to maintain her spunk. As a child, I remember being sent to her house when I was too sick to go to school, and endured hours of old world child care that I now look back on fondly. She is still stubborn, strong, has an impressive memory, quarters her Aspirin, bakes amazing Christmas cookies, and remembers leaving Europe during WWII.
