Dearest Grandma Speedy-nai, towards the end, regressed and thought that she was again that 18 year old winged wonder that so turned heads in the year of yester. Whenever they spoke to her she told all the boys to please stop flirting with her. We didn't say anything and let her enjoy her last few flights of happy befuddlement.

She didn't realize that she was in possession of dried up salty mucus, why would we hurt her by chopping her wings of extra comfort?

She is missed but I visit her and pooscat every day and place a wreath of skimmia japonica upon her mound whenever possible.
