Synopsis
I say, “Te amo siempre.”
And she says, “I love you more.”
And I say, “Impossible.”
Abuela, Don’t Forget Me is Rex Ogle’s portrait of his grandmother, the one adult he could count on when he was a child—and who is now forgetting him as dementia takes hold of her.
In his award-winning Free Lunch and Punching Bag, Rex charted a coming of age marked by poverty and domestic violence. Here, he celebrates the woman who gave him unconditional love through it all. From a first memory of hiding in a
laundry hamper and squealing with delight when she found him; through collect calls, visits, trips to the library, and a trip to Mexico, where she was raised; school reports, driving lessons, and a first car; to high school and graduation, Abuela,
Don’t Forget Me is a lyrical and life-affirming portrait of the promise of love and home, and of the devoted grandmother who provided it.
