Phyllis Burch, an active eighty-six-year-old woman living in Worthing, England, does extraordinary things with the life she has left. He goes to my cousins' weddings, walks around London with my dad when he comes back to visit me. I couldn't talk to her because she couldn't hear as well as before. So arranging an interview wasn't too difficult, all I had to do was write a friendly letter to my aunt. I couldn't call her on Skype because she had previously had trouble hearing me. Also, I would get much better responses if I emailed my aunt who lives with her. My grandmother is doing very well for her age, having lived through the war. He does not walk with a cane and is comfortable cooking in his home and doing laundry. My aunt and uncle, who live with her, help her out and about and go on hikes in the big parks. Grandma is enjoying life right now as her granddaughter just had a baby with her great grandson. Phyllis Burch, my grandmother grew up on the south coast of England in a village called Lancing. Life as a child before the war was the most important part of her life as she lived it to the fullest. There were very few cars and buses on the road, so there was never a problem of getting hit by one. Everything was within walking distance of his house. The park was a five minute walk from his house, he spent hours and hours there with his school friends. School for her was interrupted due to World War II. London's children were evacuated to his village to escape bombing by German planes. The scholars held lectures in the village halls during the freezing winter. School returned to normal once the London children had left. Changes due to the war: There were many changes due to World War II and the alm...... middle of paper ...... and let's talk about what life was like for Phillis. And a lot changed with markets and food shops, especially during the war. The things we take for granted in the modern world that my grandmother and her peers would never have dreamed of. For example, while I'm driving, when I have to go out to buy something or go to a friend's house I simply ask my mother to accompany me and in a few minutes I'm there. While in the 1920s and 1940s this wasn't the case because there weren't many people driving on the roads in England. Making it safer for you to walk to a friend's house, but not as efficient as a car would have been. Comparing my grandmother's story I learned that there were so many differences and not so many similarities. I wonder what technology will be like in sixty years. I can't dream of something we don't have right now that could change the world dramatically, except space travel for the public.
