Two days before my grandmother died from Alzheimer’s disease, my mother and I were sitting vigil at her bedside at the Pavilion, a nursing home in Hyannis.
It was the week before Christmas and the halls were virtually empty — many families extremely busy due to the holiday season — and all of a sudden a young man walked in with a small, festive flower arrangement for Virginia Wheeler, my grandmother.
The bouquet was so sudden and unexpected that my mother thought it must be a mistake until she witnessed other men and women passing arrangement after arrangement to every single resident in the building.
