Amancia has recently learned that her beloved Grandma has Alzheimers disease. Initially, she is extremely saddened and thinks of Grandma as she once was.

The story uses a problem solving approach to better understand behaviors associated with the disease and how to make the necessary adaptations. Amancia and Mother help to build upon Grandmas preserved abilities such as singing hymns, keeping her Bible close, and enjoying regional fruits and traditional family meals. Grandma is treated with respect and love. In addition, Grandmas dog, Calypso shows his faithful and protective nature when he senses something is wrong with Grandma. Calypso becomes an important companion to Grandma. The love and happiness in the final scene is palpable.
