Granny Pat that was a wonderful story. When you tell a story you make us feel like we are sitting in the doctor's office with you. How uncomfortable it is to sit on the table waiting for the doctor to come in and see your private parts. I guess after a while, you get more comfortable going in. I always remind myself it's no different than going to the eye doctor, the dentist, etc. Parts are Parts. But I could see how emotional you were getting when it comes time to say so long to the doctor that knows you inside and out once he retires. I feel the same way about my doctor. I love you Granny Pat❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰🥰 and Jan is a very lucky lady to have you for a mother. Take care of yourself so you can tell us many more wonderful stories. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I feel so fortunate to have found your channel, Granny Pat. Your stories bring me so much comfort and joy. You remind me of my grandmother. I agree. There is nothing like a photo you can hold. My grandmother always wrote the names and dates on the back of the pictures as soon as they got them back from the developer. She said because if you don't do it right away, you forget. I am so happy she did that for us. Thank you for sharing with us all. You are a treasure.
Pat you did a great job on the jewelry video. It wasn't too much at all. They looked fabulous in the pretty bowls too. Of course I LOVE jewelry. Loved the story about your doctor - sounds like he's a good one!
Oh dear, I don't want you to ever think that you are insignificant or have no meaning in life! You have so much to offer and you are appreciated by myself so much…just remember all of us who appreciate each and every one of your stories and recipes. You have so much to give and we appreciate having the knowledge and friendship you are like a dear friend and I look forward to each and every one of your videos and cherish them…thank you for all that you give to each and every one of us. You are a rock star in my life and I'm sure many others also!! Love you dearly!
WHAT A GREAT STORY GRANNY PAT OUR FAMILY DOCTOR RETIRED AFTER 30 YEARS 2 DAYS BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT HE DECIDED TO RETIRED A WEEK EARLIER WE NEW EACH OTHER LIKE FAMILY HE LEFT A THANK YOU CARD WITH A LETTER TO US I DO MISS HIM❤️🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝
Granny Pat - I hope you realize that the gift you’re giving to humanity by telling your stories on this video forum so that we have a record to cherish is truly amazing and you can’t put a value on it. I lost my grandma in 1987 at age 16. My dear Grandpa passed away in 1991, when I was 20, a few months after my wedding. I didn’t have them for many years but the memories that I still have are more precious than all the earthly treasures
To MHome, You have said this so Nicely! I Agree about Granny’s Videos! I live for my Family and My Grandchildren! My Grandparents were all gone by the time I was 7. I always missed getting to know them good.
Pat I just love you and your stories! You make me laugh, you make me cry, you make me remember and appreciate so much of life and I thank you for that. Keep up the great work on sharing so much! ❤❤❤
Doctors are so adverse now to even fully exam their patients it seems...I can't remember the last time my doctor even used a sethescope on me let alone placed a hand on me! Good bedside manner is rare these days. Lucky you had such a great doc!
I have two doctors that have retired that I had for years and I’m only 70. It is sad since they were so nice, and good doctors. You look very nice in that blue with your glasses.
Remember that old song,"Let the sunshine in,face it with a grin,smilers never lose and frowners never win,so let the shine in!" Love you and the jewelery video was wonderful!
Good evening granny Pat Karen forestparkga how was your day what you eat today some special like Fry chicken coleslaw mashed potatoes and Dr pepper 🎉🎉🎉🎉 love you old girl
What a great story about your 24-year relationship with your doctor! I don't think there are many who could say that. I teared up when you told us how Jan called and he sang "Happy Birthday" to you. Now there's a doctor with a big heart. What a blessing that Jan made that appointment for you, so many years ago!
I enjoy all of your videos, yet there was something about this one that I’ve been especially fond about. I was thinking about your doctor…how he was looking up information about Sea B. Island instead of reading about some medical information that it seemed he should have been doing, as you were there for information! It does appear that he has a nice personality and that day he didn’t seem to be rushing through so quickly, which was great!
For me, the doctor was showing personal interest in me and who I am. He calls me by my first name. I like that! I like when my doctor can repeat something I told in a recent visit, something unrelated to medicine.
I actually just got a new doctor today . Just in time too . Ive been having pins and needles in my feet and im terrified i have diabetes . Lots of other stuff going on too , so definately will be getting blood work. Keep me in your prayers and thank you for another story . I always love to hear them when i go to bed. So comforting.
Hi Granny Pat! Another great chit chat with you today. Things do not have to be perfect. I like the down-to-earth type of chats. It is nice to hear your words and I just get lost in the moment and enjoy it all. 😊 Gloomy here in Indianapolis too. Your sunshine from within always shines through and you sign off with a smile. I look forward to your next chat. Hugs. Nancy from IN.❤
I have asked you before if you would ever talk about "Close To Death Or Dying" video and you just said in this video "life does not have much to hold for me" You also said you are telling it how it is.. I know folks would know how you feel about this at 88..Please Consider this? Let me tell you that you are wrong on the part where you said life does not have much to offer, but that offering is amazing for US. Love and Hugs from Atlanta.
Hiya Gran Pat!! I adore cemetery visits! Watch SIDESTEP ADVENTURES! So interesting 🤗 I don't like going to the Dr. I typically will only go if absolutely necessary. And i can't go to a male OBGYN Dr. Just odd to me. Thank you so much for sharing!!
It is so hard to find a good doctor. I searched and I searched and I visited several doctors. It is really hard to find a doctor who satisfies your expectations and needs. I really love nurse practitioners. Even some of them are not up to par with my anticipation. There is nothing more embarrassing than that physical that us women have to take. I really hate that experience of having to expose your body. I'm glad you found a good doctor. I love listening to your story and experiences. I'm so happy to hear you are doing well. I am so happy that we make you happy because you make many of us happy. You are a joy. I love you to pieces
I’m just your average person with average interests. I feel good if I can make others feel good. I am learning that more and more each day, even with my family.. Unfortunately,, some family members aren’t interested in what I think or do. I can live with that! They have no interest in my Utube Channel. I don’t let that bother me. I am happy with the many friends I have made and the good impressions I have made in their lives.
@@chitchatwithgrannypat7900 yes, you are definitely making good impressions. I'm sorry that you have some family members not interested. Your RUclipsrs are very interested. It's nice chatting with you.
Oh how I love this story!!! My doctor is only a year or two younger than I, so I feel sure at some point in the not too distant future I will move on to one of the younger doctors in her practice. She is in a very large group-the largest Internal Medicine practice group in Macon, GA. I haven’t been with her for 24 years but I have been with her for about 10 years. History is most definitely important-especially family history!!! 💝💝💝
Aww, that story about your doctor is such a sweet story! He sounds like a wonderful doctor, Granny Pat. Mine has been with me for about 20 years, and he is friendly, but overworked. Just so many patients and never enough time for chit chat. You are so lucky😊❤️ Loved this video😊
Hey there Granny Pat, Yes it has been cold , rainy ,& snowy here in Colorado- whew! What a spring! Glad I didn’t plant my flowers 🌺 🌷🌼yet!! Really enjoy u very much. Keep up the good stories. ❤️& Prayers
I was at my mom's 1 day when I was in my late 50's , Iwas complaining that my chest hurt when I was breathing in deep . My mom took me to the E.R. and the Dr. Said I would have passed away if my mom didn't insist I go . They kept me in the hospital for 5 days .I ended up with severe lung embolisms . I now take Eliquis blood thinner twice daily for ever .They couldn't figure out what caused it . I'm glad I listened to my mom because I never would have gone on my own .
Loved the story about your doctor. I have had 2 now that are close to retirement age. It really hit home for me. Having personal relationships with a doctor is amazing and a blessing. I sure hope your doctor waits a long time to retire. I love your stories…the Happy ones and the sad ones. They all make us who we are. You are a very special person and I feel grateful that I discovered you and your wonderful stories.
I can identify with your story about the doctor. My husband and I have been seeing our PCP for probably 30 years now. He’s in his 60’s now, but his hair is still pretty dark. He’s of Greek descent and I don’t think he puts color on his hair. I can usually tell…😉. But I dread the day he retires because at that point, we will have a dickens of a time breaking in someone new! 🤣 ❤-Brenda
I so enjoyed this, could relate to a lot of it and got a few chuckles too😂. My dad used to say that all doctors went to medical school and graduated but you never know if the one you pick was at the top of their class or the very bottom of their class. You better hope you don’t get one at the bottom of the class.😂. I always dread when they’re done typing on their little computer and spin around to tell you how you’re doing, always seems like they want to add a new prescription that’s gonna have side effects to bring you back again…a vicious cycle but luckily I like my doctor.
Oh this was a good life memory Granny Pat. I know what you mean about a young, handsome man checking you out. You soon find out they are trained to take care of us. They become very important people in our lives.❤️❤️🙏carson in Ohio. I also feel a good bit like you do on life now. I take one day at a time. ❤
I agree Granny Pat, it’s hard to find a Doctor you can trust and actually listen to you. My husband moved us 9 years ago so I could be closer to my sister and I had to find new Doctors, boy I was not looking forward to that. I live about 30 miles from the city and found a GP that we both like. I adore my Opthamologist, she goes out of her way to lust chitchat and helps me get the best deal on my glaucoma drops that are so expensive. I wish I could find an internist instead of just going to a GP. Have a good evening, we sure love you and your wonderful stories.❤❤
Enjoyed your story today about your Dr. I recently went through my Dr. retiring after seeing him for years. I have a new Dr that took his place. She is a good Dr but not the same. Love you Granny Pat ❤
I really enjoy listening to your life stories. Everything you talk about is so similar to events I have gone through. Stories that are about your parents and grandparents are very interesting. Thank you for sharing!
Yes you are a good southern girl....friendly, outgoing and personal even with the doctor. Why not make Them Laugh and enjoy the visit. (Keeps them from having a humdrum day!! Keep them in stitches on the way out. Love your subjects and delivery...and look good doing it. Jan in TN
Even though I am thousands of miles away in England, when you mention the weather it is quite often the same weather over here in England! You talk about the rain, and as often as not it is raining here on that day. You say the sunshine is peeking through: and it is often the same here. Some times I think people and atmospheres can be connected, even though there is an ocean between us.
I have known a lot of good doctors because I used to work with them. Of course there's always one bad apple in the bunch, but thankfully that wasn't often. That is a great story! Especially about reading the epitaphs in a cemetery. I think it's interesting.
Keep those stories coming, Granny Pat. You have so much to share & teach us all. I greatly appreciate you opening up & letting us in. You make me feel so at home. Looking forward to your next story. God bless you Granny Pat.♡
Oh how sweet. It is so hard to find a good doctor. I am 77 years old, my doctor is 82. I worry about loosing him. He is just the greatest. Love your stories. Thank you so much. God bless.
I remember going to a doctor when I was in my early fifties and I asked him a question. He prefaced his answer by saying,”If you were my mother,”! What a shock that was.
Granny Pat, I am a young-lady medical student! Did you have any woman physicians taking care of you throughout your life? I especially appreciated your story because it paints a good picture of the value of some 'chit chat' between doctor and patient. As students, we are told that medicine back in the day was much more paternalistic. And that the relationship between doctors and patients was such that the doctor was the leader and the patient the follower. Can you comment on this? Did you chit chat much with your doctors before you met the handsome dark, curly haired fellow? Ooh I'd also love to know how mental health was perceived back in the day - anxiety, depression, personality disorders and the like. Also, if you are looking for more conversation topics, I really like the painting behind you! Is that some birds pecking at a juicy watermelon!? Perhaps you can give us a tour of your paintings? PS- Did I hear correctly that you woke up with your chest feeling strange and pain radiating down your arm and you didn't IMMEDIATELY go to an emergency room? I hope, if this happens again, you will call 911. For our sake at least??
Take a look at my video ‘A LOOK AT THE OLD MASTER ART WORK.’ I think you will like this episode. Doctors don’t tell you what you want to know unless you ask and insist on knowing. I find humoring the doctor helps. They are more willing to talk (chitchat). They are swamped these days with patients. I have had new ( to me) doctors very friendly. I get more info if my daughter is with me. It’s more conversational. Most doctors are too business like. It’s up to the patient sometimes to start the conversation. A funny incident can get the doctor to open up and laugh! Patients like the feeling of being the only important patient. It relaxes them, (Just my opinion)
Hey Pat, Kitty here. Just a note to tell you how much watching your videos has made me feel not so lonely. i’m a collector too. Not on your scale LOL but you’ve emboldened me or should I say made me feel not so guilty about my love of beautiful things. Like you I’ve found many treasures at the GW. But aside from that aspect I find myself calmed when I watch your videos. I have an anxiety disorder a fancy way of saying I’m skittish. I became a widow in 2019 after 50+ years and decades of caregiving for my bedridden husband. He had severe MS. I love that you ENJOY life and it’s contagious. I think too, you exemplify the idea that it’s never too late. There is lots wrong with the Internet but there are lots of miraculous things too.
Hi there Granny Pat. Was wondering if you would like to tell us who your sisters married and maybe what they did for a living, and how many children they had. Were you particularly close to any of your nieces or nephews? If these things aren’t too intruding on your personal life, I think they would be interesting to hear about. I pretty much understand your X is off the table for a discussion, which is understandable. Anyway, just thought you may want to share. If not, I’ll just have to think of something else to ask for. You take care. 🌹🙋🏻♀️❤️
I don’t feel free to tell the personal lives of my family. A short, notable story like my cousin breaking the Japanese code in WW2 IS QUITE DIFFERENT. These stories should be told. We were just the average family.
Oh, how I wish I had thought to ask questions of my grandma back in the day. I would love to know how she and Granddaddy met; how my parents met (they both died when I was 15); how GREAT grandma (who was born in 1868 and who I remember) and Great Grandad met. How did Great Grandma feed and clothe her six children when her husband died young? I like to think all my questions will be answered when I reunite with them all in heaven.
🌺with large populations; doctors have too much patients now. Especially here in Hawaii. Limited. Some doctors won’t take new patients cuz they don’t have enough time. Only very few percentage will take the time to really know you.
Before I found this channel I used to cry every single night since I was a child about wishing that I had a mother or a grandmother I always wondered what it was like to have a family and to have a mom someone to guide you tell you stories and share things with you I don't cry any longer because I found your channel and it fills the hole in my heart.. when I watch your videos I pretend that I'm going to visit my grandmother and that she's telling me wonderful stories and it makes my heart Happy❤ thank you so much for your videos
@@kellinmoore2146 Your comments are as important to me as my stories are to you. I look forward every day to hearing from you. If you didn’t respond, my stories would have no meaning. Thank you.
Thoroughly enjoyed this story because I can relate to it. I am 84 yrs old & had the sane Dr. for 30 + yrs. I woukd tell him he couldnt retire till after I died. Well he had the nerve to retire & I am still going. Thank the Lord. That man knew me inside & out. My feet would be in those stirrups & I would be rattling on & the exam would be over. He was a compassionate & carrying man. He cared about all if you. I go to same office only have a younger female Nurse Practioner but have established a good relationship with her. I think the older generation find that we have a lot in common♥
I hardly know what to say. I just rec’d your package. How did you happen to have these pictures? I watched Jeanette MacDonald/Nelson Eddy movies many years ago. Loved their movies and singing. I can’t help but ask why you decided to send this package to me. Are they from your own collection? Thank you very much. It is very thoughtful of you. The young man who helped me publish my books said I write like Erma Bombeck. I’m not doing anything special. It’s my viewers that keep the party going.
You are my most favorite granny i love you so much pat granny you should be avoided put sugar in cornbread please take care for eating my prayers for you all the time smile will be on your face and goodnesses with you stay safe happy and blessed good luck
Dear Granny Pat, I agree with this Lady! We Love You So Much! We are looking for much more! I’m 67 and I sometimes wonder how much more time I have. I soon change my way of thinking. Hey wait a minute who knows , we don’t know . Just keep living and Enjoying Your Beautiful Life! You Are A Joy to So Many!!! BL from Ohio ❤️😘🐝
Awwww. He sounds like a wonderful doctor. I have some professionals that take care of me and they are so wonderful like your doctor. I bet your doctor feels blessed to have you as his patient. Im sure you add to his happiness. That's how you are. You have a gift for making people feel great. You look so good in that color blue. Have a wonderful day. Please stay well. We need you. From Shirley
I figure my doctor hears whining and complaining all day, so if I can say something funny, it might brighten his day for a change. I can make him laugh.
What a Wonderful Legacy you leave for your family, and All of Us! I’m 73, and I Hope to continue like You!! You are so Amazing, and I Love You Dearly! Your stories are so Very Inspirational and close to God, the Father, Almighty! Praise God for Granny Pat!❤✝️🥰✅

WHAT A GREAT STORY GRANNY PAT OUR FAMILY DOCTOR RETIRED AFTER 30 YEARS 2 DAYS BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT HE DECIDED TO RETIRED A WEEK EARLIER WE NEW EACH OTHER LIKE FAMILY HE LEFT A THANK YOU CARD WITH A LETTER TO US I DO MISS HIM❤️🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝
Granny Pat - I hope you realize that the gift you’re giving to humanity by telling your stories on this video forum so that we have a record to cherish is truly amazing and you can’t put a value on it. I lost my grandma in 1987 at age 16. My dear Grandpa passed away in 1991, when I was 20, a few months after my wedding. I didn’t have them for many years but the memories that I still have are more precious than all the earthly treasures
Thank you!🌹
To MHome, You have said this so Nicely! I Agree about Granny’s Videos! I live for my Family and My Grandchildren! My Grandparents were all gone by the time I was 7. I always missed getting to know them good.
Wonderful Story Always Enjoy your Videos. Thank you!!Take Care!😀
Pat I just love you and your stories! You make me laugh, you make me cry, you make me remember and appreciate so much of life and I thank you for that. Keep up the great work on sharing so much! ❤❤❤
Doctors are so adverse now to even fully exam their patients it seems...I can't remember the last time my doctor even used a sethescope on me let alone placed a hand on me! Good bedside manner is rare these days. Lucky you had such a great doc!
I have two doctors that have retired that I had for years and I’m only 70. It is sad since they were so nice, and good doctors. You look very nice in that blue with your glasses.
I love my Doctor. I'm 73 and I've gone to him since he first got out of medical school. About 33 years. Also a handsome man. 😊
Yr a lovely lady Granny Pat ❤❤❤❤
Remember that old song,"Let the sunshine in,face it with a grin,smilers never lose and frowners never win,so let the shine in!" Love you and the jewelery video was wonderful!
You are such an amazing story teller! Not many people have this gift, especially as eloquent as you. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.

Sounds like Diabetes 2. I know! Ask for something besides Metformin. I had my medication changed. I’m afraid of Metformin.
Everyone loves you Granny Pat including your doctor 😊my uncle was a good doctor like thatvwho truly cared about his patients he was dearly loved❤

He said, “Breathe in. Breathe out. Again, In, Out!” 😅😅😅

Enjoyed your story today about your Dr. I recently went through my Dr. retiring after seeing him for years. I have a new Dr that took his place. She is a good Dr but not the same. Love you Granny Pat ❤
Thanks for sharing!!! What a wonderful story!!! 😂
Such a great story!! Thank you, Granny Pat! Your stories are always enjoyable to hear! ❤❤❤
Thank You! I’m going to have a chicken salad sandwich with you today.💞😇😂
Keep ‘em coming Granny Pat. Treasure your stories almost as much as I treasure you‼️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💯🤗♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I really enjoy listening to your life stories. Everything you talk about is so similar to events I have gone through. Stories that are about your parents and grandparents are very interesting. Thank you for sharing!
I so enjoyed the jewelry video. You are too hard on yourself. We don't expect perfection!
Yes you are a good southern girl....friendly, outgoing and personal even with the doctor. Why not make Them Laugh and enjoy the visit. (Keeps them from having a humdrum day!! Keep them in stitches on the way out. Love your subjects and delivery...and look good doing it. Jan in TN
Love your stories Granny Pat❤ You have a wonderful memory.
You sre so much like my Mom. I enjoyed your story
About your doctor . I go
To a clinic and my doctor
Changes about every 4 years.
Even though I am thousands of miles away in England, when you mention the weather it is quite often the same weather over here in England! You talk about the rain, and as often as not it is raining here on that day. You say the sunshine is peeking through: and it is often the same here. Some times I think people and atmospheres can be connected, even though there is an ocean between us.
I have known a lot of good doctors because I used to work with them. Of course there's always one bad apple in the bunch, but thankfully that wasn't often. That is a great story! Especially about reading the epitaphs in a cemetery. I think it's interesting.
Keep those stories coming, Granny Pat. You have so much to share & teach us all. I greatly appreciate you opening up & letting us in. You make me feel so at home. Looking forward to your next story. God bless you Granny Pat.♡
Thank you Granny Pat! ❤
I was wondering if I was older than you. I’m still 77 years old. You’re an amazing lady! Thank You for sharing this video.
Hello Granny Pat, I really enjoyed your video. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
It's not possible to keep doctors anymore. Doctors keep leaving this area of Michigan...it is upsetting. I am glad you found a good one. 😀
Oh how sweet. It is so hard to find a good doctor. I am 77 years old, my doctor is 82. I worry about loosing him. He is just the greatest. Love your stories. Thank you so much. God bless.
My first date with my boyfriend
Of 25 yesrs was to a cemetary
I love to read very old stones
They used to be so detailed.
I remember going to a doctor when I was in my early fifties and I asked him a question. He prefaced his answer by saying,”If you were my mother,”! What a shock that was.
You have brought so much joy n sunshine to my life since I found you 2 weeks ago. It’s make me happy when I have stress and is sad. MAHALO MUCH!❤️🌺
I'm so glad!
Granny Pat i love sitting and listening to your life stories they are all interesting to me thank you for sharing with me amd many other's 💕💜
Granny Pat, I am a young-lady medical student! Did you have any woman physicians taking care of you throughout your life? I especially appreciated your story because it paints a good picture of the value of some 'chit chat' between doctor and patient.
As students, we are told that medicine back in the day was much more paternalistic. And that the relationship between doctors and patients was such that the doctor was the leader and the patient the follower. Can you comment on this? Did you chit chat much with your doctors before you met the handsome dark, curly haired fellow? Ooh I'd also love to know how mental health was perceived back in the day - anxiety, depression, personality disorders and the like.
Also, if you are looking for more conversation topics, I really like the painting behind you! Is that some birds pecking at a juicy watermelon!? Perhaps you can give us a tour of your paintings?
PS- Did I hear correctly that you woke up with your chest feeling strange and pain radiating down your arm and you didn't IMMEDIATELY go to an emergency room? I hope, if this happens again, you will call 911. For our sake at least??
Take a look at my video ‘A LOOK AT THE OLD MASTER ART WORK.’ I think you will like this episode.
Doctors don’t tell you what you want to know unless you ask and insist on knowing. I find humoring the doctor helps. They are more willing to talk (chitchat). They are swamped these days with patients. I have had new ( to me) doctors very friendly. I get more info if my daughter is with me. It’s more conversational. Most doctors are too business like. It’s up to the patient sometimes to start the conversation. A funny incident can get the doctor to open up and laugh!
Patients like the feeling of being the only important patient. It relaxes them, (Just my opinion)
Hey Pat, Kitty here. Just a note to tell you how much watching your videos has made me feel not so lonely. i’m a collector too. Not on your scale LOL but you’ve emboldened me or should I say made me feel not so guilty about my love of beautiful things. Like you I’ve found many treasures at the GW. But aside from that aspect I find myself calmed when I watch your videos. I have an anxiety disorder a fancy way of saying I’m skittish. I became a widow in 2019 after 50+ years and decades of caregiving for my bedridden husband. He had severe MS.
I love that you ENJOY life and it’s contagious. I think too, you exemplify the idea that it’s never too late. There is lots wrong with the Internet but there are lots of miraculous things too.
I am thrilled to think that anything I say or do that helps someone else, helps me.
Hi there Granny Pat. Was wondering if you would like to tell us who your sisters married and maybe what they did for a living, and how many children they had. Were you particularly close to any of your nieces or nephews? If these things aren’t too intruding on your personal life, I think they would be interesting to hear about. I pretty much understand your X is off the table for a discussion, which is understandable. Anyway, just thought you may want to share. If not, I’ll just have to think of something else to ask for. You take care. 🌹🙋🏻♀️❤️
I don’t feel free to tell the personal lives of my family. A short, notable story like my cousin breaking the Japanese code in WW2 IS QUITE DIFFERENT. These stories should be told. We were just the average family.
Oh, how I wish I had thought to ask questions of my grandma back in the day. I would love to know how she and Granddaddy met; how my parents met (they both died when I was 15); how GREAT grandma (who was born in 1868 and who I remember) and Great Grandad met. How did Great Grandma feed and clothe her six children when her husband died young? I like to think all my questions will be answered when I reunite with them all in heaven.
We should all be teaching our descendants to ask questions. They are vital to our family history.
I love this story…Pat, you let your new Dr know you’re important, say I hope you know and understand that 😊 What a good soul you are Pat!
🌺with large populations; doctors have too much patients now. Especially here in Hawaii. Limited. Some doctors won’t take new patients cuz they don’t have enough time. Only very few percentage will take the time to really know you.
They are bombarded with patients these days. I really can’t complain.
THIS IS A NUCE STORY AND DOCTOR. I LOST MY LONG TIME DOCTOR, HE RETIRED BUT I HAVE A NICE NEW ONE BUT HARD WHEN YOU ARE OLD.
Love you so much Granny Pat! Thank you for sharing yet another wonderful story with us! You are the sunshine of my days!
Love you, great story. You always warm my heart.
Granny Pat, you did it again. I was feeling bad and after listening to your story I feel much better
Before I found this channel I used to cry every single night since I was a child about wishing that I had a mother or a grandmother I always wondered what it was like to have a family and to have a mom someone to guide you tell you stories and share things with you I don't cry any longer because I found your channel and it fills the hole in my heart.. when I watch your videos I pretend that I'm going to visit my grandmother and that she's telling me wonderful stories and it makes my heart Happy❤ thank you so much for your videos
@@kellinmoore2146 Your comments are as important to me as my stories are to you. I look forward every day to hearing from you. If you didn’t respond, my stories would have no meaning. Thank you.
Good evening Granny Pat. We love all your stories whether they be happy or sad. They are all a part of some ones history.
What a great story! ❤️ Love you Granny Pat.
Thoroughly enjoyed this story because I can relate to it. I am 84 yrs old & had the sane Dr. for 30 + yrs. I woukd tell him he couldnt retire till after I died. Well he had the nerve to retire & I am still going. Thank the Lord. That man knew me inside & out. My feet would be in those stirrups & I would be rattling on & the exam would be over. He was a compassionate & carrying man. He cared about all if you. I go to same office only have a younger female Nurse Practioner but have established a good relationship with her. I think the older generation find that we have a lot in common♥
We just want to be treated like we matter!
@@chitchatwithgrannypat7900, very true!
I always love your stories and love you too.❤️
I wish you great health and please stay well.
I want to thank you for sharing your story of your doctor's visit and I rejoiced at the wonderful outcome. I love you as family.
I hardly know what to say. I just rec’d your package. How did you happen to have these pictures? I watched Jeanette MacDonald/Nelson Eddy movies many years ago. Loved their movies and singing. I can’t help but ask why you decided to send this package to me. Are they from your own collection? Thank you very much. It is very thoughtful of you.
The young man who helped me publish my books said I write like Erma Bombeck.
I’m not doing anything special. It’s my viewers that keep the party going.
Nothing like the warmth of an old familiar face greeting you.
You are my most favorite granny i love you so much pat granny you should be avoided put sugar in cornbread please take care for eating my prayers for you all the time smile will be on your face and goodnesses with you stay safe happy and blessed good luck
I don’t think a tsp of sugar in a 10 inch skillet of cornbread will do much harm!
So thanks for feedback on me comments respected Pat granny good luck
Njoy d I his immensely. Lol😂😂💯
Love you Pat, God isnt done with you yet!🌞🌺🌸
Dear Granny Pat, I agree with this Lady! We Love You So Much! We are looking for much more! I’m 67 and I sometimes wonder how much more time I have. I soon change my way of thinking. Hey wait a minute who knows , we don’t know . Just keep living and Enjoying Your Beautiful Life! You Are A Joy to So Many!!! BL from Ohio ❤️😘🐝

Oh my goodness what a great story
I love your stories!!!❤❤❤
YOU DID IT AGAIN, you told an amazing story, wow.. That doctor.. Hugs From Atlanta.
Awwww. He sounds like a wonderful doctor. I have some professionals that take care of me and they are so wonderful like your doctor. I bet your doctor feels blessed to have you as his patient. Im sure you add to his happiness. That's how you are. You have a gift for making people feel great. You look so good in that color blue. Have a wonderful day. Please stay well. We need you. From Shirley
I figure my doctor hears whining and complaining all day, so if I can say something funny, it might brighten his day for a change. I can make him laugh.
@@chitchatwithgrannypat7900 I'm sure you do make him laugh. I bet he loves you.
You make me happy!
Thank you, Pat! 💕🌸
Great video.
Any O'neal, O'Neil relatives in Georgia?
I think my ex-husband had relatives in NC or GA. O’ Neal They are probably all gone now.
What a Wonderful Legacy you leave for your family, and All of Us! I’m 73, and I Hope to continue like You!! You are so Amazing, and I Love You Dearly! Your stories are so Very Inspirational and close to God, the Father, Almighty! Praise God for Granny Pat!❤✝️🥰✅
