Today, I took my grandma to the hospital to visit her estranged husband who she hasn't seen in years. After a thoroughly disasterous visit, we're waiting in the carpark and my gran strokes my face and tells me I have a lot of facial hair. I thought she was going to thank me. And I'm a girl. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to pay my grandma a visit. She called the cops because she didn't recognize me and thought I was a robber. FML
Today, I had to cancel my plans to go see my grandma, because I wasn't feeling too well. I called her to apologize, but she had trouble remembering who I was. When I told her my name, she said "Oh, the FAT one." Yes grandma, the fat one. FML
Today, I went to the gym with my grandma. In the span of an hour, she was hit on more than I ever have been in my life. FML
Today, I went to visit my grandparents, as my grandmother may not have long left. When my stepfather wasn't grilling my visibly uncomfortable grandad about Bible passages, my mother was trauma-dumping about how hard her life has been, and how awful her marriage to my father was. They're his parents. FML
Today, I went to see my grandmother. She has Alzheimer's and doesn't remember me sometimes, and today she thought I was her sister and that I was trying to steal my grandfather from her. She hit me with a cane and called me a slut. FML
Today, I shaved my pubes while staying at my senile grandma's place. I guess I didn't clean up properly, because she found some hair and insisted someone must have broken in while we were out and used the shower. I had to play along to spare myself embarrassment. FML
Today, I brought my best friend to my uncle's birthday party. We were having a great time until my grandmother walked up to us and said to me, "You sure have a nice looking boyfriend." My friend is a girl. She has cancer and lost all of her hair due to chemotherapy. FML
Today, I spent all day at the hospital with my grandma for some tests. When I drove her back home she decided to thank me with $50. Knowing she is unemployed, I told her I couldn't take a whole $50. She replied with "Ungrateful, just like your mother", then took the money and left. FML
Today, being the nice grandchild that I am, I went to visit my grandmother. She didn't recognise who I was. I thought she was joking. She later called the police as, "Some weirdo had walked into her house." I'm that weirdo; she wasn't joking. FML
Today, I saw an old friend while out and about. Since I don't leave the house very often, my friend was surprised to see me in person. He jokingly asked if someone was dying, and I cried in response. I was in fact going to the hospital to say goodbye to my grandma. FML

She sounds like my mother. She has things to pick at, even if they don't always make sense or have a purpose. I'd just be happy that she didn't start buying you gift cards to spas to fix the problem or suggest products. Totally embarrassing though. Had you noticed this before she mentioned it though?

everyone on here saying that she is ugly and disgusting , do you even know what she looks like? It could be no worse then anyone else and her grandma is thinking of someone else. My grandma sometimes thinks i'm her husband (i'm a girl and look nothing like a 90 yr old man as far as i can tell). it might just be how confused her grandma is. Or maybe not, in wich case the OP might want to think about doing something. But just stop making assumotions, its incredibly obnoxious and annoying.

I wouldn't take the comment seriously--unless it's true, in which case deal with it perhaps?-- people can usually be quite spaced out and delusional from emotional moments such as this one.

I think it's a shame that people are judged so harshly because of something like bodily hair. (I'm talking about the comments calling her a bitch or saying she doesn't groom)

Old people can be really unnecessarily judgmental. When I was thirteen my grandpa, out of NOWHERE, mind you, told me I "dressed kinda funny". I was wearing a hoodie, skirt, leggings, and converse. That same year my grandma told me I was "getting quite a belly". And she never ceases to comment on my acne. What REALLY pisses me off is that old people are the ugliest, most flawful things EVER and they think they have the right to judge. Screw that. Besides, it's my grandma's side of the family who gave me such crappy skin. Maybe it's your grandma's side of the family who gave you so much hair. You should ask.
