Comment from RodG
This story describing how a family deals with admitting Grandpa to a senior residence is very believable. I especially like how Donna, the younger grandchild is characterized as Grandpa's protector and, later, as the only one who truly sends what has happened. Mother's rationale for placing him there is very convincing. A really good plot twist when Grandpa immediately disappears. There is mention of Grandpa hallucinating, but the supernatural elements appear rather late in the story. How might you hint at them earlier? Otherwise, the story is well aced, the dialog is believable, and the E solution is convincing. Nice job!
