Jolanta comments on Oct 16, 2019:

My grandmother on my mothers side was very religious but she never ever made me go to church, although she went. I remember her as the kindest person in my otherwise chaotic early life from birth until she died when I was seven. Those years she was my sanctuary. My other grandmother was just like the devil incarnated, jealous and two faced.
