Today - well Saturday - my great-grandmother turned 103. They were having a cake for her at the nursing home. I wanted to go and see her - I haven't seen her since she turned 99, but Mum didn't want me to go because then her family would ask why she wasn't there. She doesn't see the point in going to see Ma-ma because she's barely conscious and doesn't recognise anyone anymore.
