Psyc 304 Life Span Development

The person that I am interviewing is an old friend of mine. I consider her to be my grandma because she had filled that role ever since I was a child. Her name is Mrs. Galina or “Totsa Galina” as we would call her that in my native tongue. She has the warm complexion of any ideal elderly figure, as her facial features and tone give off the impression of a life that was lived to the fullest. She is currently 74, divorced, has a daughter and 2 grandkids. Most of her career was spent in the Bolshevichka garment factory, where she manufactured suits for men during the Soviet era.

I truly miss him but I know I will soon see him in heaven. He has given everything to me and my family. All my love, all my support. I would be in a whole different place right now if it weren’t for him. He gave me my structure for my life. He passed over his wisdom and truth onto me. That is unrepayable. It is truly agape love; my father had sacrificed so much for me. I had learned to love because of him.
