Grandma's hands

Harriet is a grandmother and a saint. Four years ago she began caring for eight grandchildren when her own daughter's life became too unstable due to drug use. Accepting no financial assistance from the state, Harriet has been the sole financial support for her suddenly expanded family, due to a series of strokes her husband suffered. Now in a nursing home, she visits him daily.

Despite the tragedies she has experienced, Harriet remains strong and loving. She adopted her grandchildren, who range in age from 3 to 17 years. The children have blossomed in her care and the oldest is starting college. Harriet is doesn't consider her efforts saint-like but, rather, the work of a dedicated grandmother.
