My husband bought my mother this Kindle for her 90th birthday. She had wanted it soooo badly. He put her own poetry on it and books of poetry that she loved. She delighted in it. In July, when she was hospitalized the first time, she took the Kindle with her to the hospital. Recuperating from her double pneumonia and infected gallbladder, she read her Kindle. After her other episodes she forgot how to use it. Now she has remembered, but is too tired to use it.
Guess who is enjoying it now??? Thanks to Bonnie Hunter, I now have three free novels on the Kindle. It is just wonderful. I told my mother that when she wants it back, I will give it willingly, but I lied!
What a lovely gift, and one that just keeps on giving, doesn't it ;) And just think, you can visit your mother and read to her from her, err, your...kindle!
