Well then I guess we just have a difference of opinion on what an FML consists of, I do not believe posting something that another person has no control over saying as something that should be shared online. Not on this site, at any rate. These type of things are said every day by people with Alzheimer's, there are countless stories of the upsetting and random things they will say, yet I do not see them on this site. I realize on the level that their great grandmother has Alhizmer's, this is incredibly depressing, but I still do not think that was at the core of what this FML was about and stand by that I do not think it should have been posted. I know that if it was my grandmother, I would not disrespect her, whether it is anonymous or not, by saying what she has done online to strangers.

Just remember, she's not in her right mind, poor woman. She can't help it, and I wouldn't think too much of it.

And one more thing, the part about where you're defending their choice of posting here by saying "perhaps the posters feel comfort in reading all the supporting and encouraging comments" has really been getting to me. This is simply not the place to find such a things, and if that was their intention, they've chosen the wrong place entirely, as most people here are only going to pick up on the fact that the great grandmother said they were her type and run with it. This is the place to find people making inconsiderate comments (such as "I hope she's a hot ole bird") and for people to either agree or disagree that this is a FML moment, nothing more. Most people replying here do not even grasp the extent of Alzheimer's and its effects not only on the individual experiencing it, but their caregivers and other family and friends. To prove this fact, many people reading this are simply laughing. I find it wrong to see something like this posted here for that reason alone, people here don't understand.

I clicked FML because my cousin has Alzheimer's and we enjoy having her around, no matter what she says (We know she doesn't really know). So eff your life for submitting this to FML; you don't seem to realize it's a blessing that granny is still around!

What kind of person would post this as a FML?! Is this a sick joke?! She has a condition, grow up and be respectful

#78 try being a little more mature...reading every last comment and then calling the people that posted them "morons" doesn't help anything.stfu.people are allowed to have their opinions...

This is painfully sad. Sorry.

*shudder*

hahhaha that's amazing. fyl

Rock on, Granny.
