I too had a rather well endowed ‘Grandma Boobs’ (died 1994). We never called her that at the time, but I’m glad you’ve finally come up with a wonderful way for me to remember her by. I have a very foggy, old, yet happy memory as a very young child of a little game she came up. I sat on her lap and would smack her in the bzongas, and would say “beep beep”, as if I was driving a car and her boobies were the horn. She would just laugh, and continue to encourage me. All very benign. Although I don’t think this has contributed to my sexuality today, and would probably be considered child abuse these days, back in the 70’s it was just one of those things that we did. No trauma, whatsoever, just good times! RIP Grandma Boobs!!!

Thanks so much for the moving podcast today. I live in the same area as most of my family (both gradma’s having had the boobie cancer) and while there are times they can nearly drive me to distraction, you reminded me how lucky I am to be — literally — surrounded by so many people I love and who love me. Since you were talking about cliche’s here’s another one, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care.

Dear Wanda, Just listened to your moving podcast tribute to “Gramma Wisdom”. So very sorry to hear of your loss. Sharing our feelings and connecting with others is so very much part of the healing process. Michael from Chicago put it quite well - saying “that you are loved by so many people…” At times, it felt like I was listening to a story of my grandma’s life. She is currently in a nursing home and dealing with dementia with just a touch of psychosis. It also feels like she really isn’t there anymore. The old familiar connections simply don’t seem to exist on a regular basis. When they do, they are much much too short. Luckily, I am blessed with childhood memories of better times - as I trust you are as well. Please take care of yourself, and please continue to connect with your large supportive gay family through your podcast. Hugs!! Robert…
