My Grandmother Puts On Lipstick

She sees spies in every passerby, and a dangerous drug dealer in her neighbor. He's burying his only friend. She has dementia, he has a broken heart. They met at a bus stop, and in one day they gave each other meaning, tenderness, and the desire to live on. Ahead of them lies a carefree retirement, but their grandchildren have already raised the alarm. This story is about how love transcends all ages and diagnoses.
