(10:07) How can grandparents transition from parents to grandparents?
Kathy - Son married a woman who convinced him to leave the faith and join her church.  2 kids.  We are allowed to see them rarely.  Difficult to navigate.  sometimes we are excluded from seeing them.

(22:14) Break 1
Janice - Wonderful experiences with grandchildren.  Used to take the train 3 days a week because daughter had to help family.  They were the best day of my life.
Nancy - 6 grandchildren.  I support my children in raising them and keeping Catholic faith alive when with them.
(34:57) Bonnie - My parents were from the same town.  Dad was Catholic, mom was not.  Closer to mom's side.  Catholic side was not blocked out and highly respected even though gatherings were usually at the other side of the family.  Grandmother's prayers helped me.
