First of all, “(Native American, not Indian)” What’s the difference?

Second -

My grandma tells me stories about her childhood in Athens, Greece during the Nazi occupation. She told me that they were only allowed one loaf of bread per week for her family. She said that her parents told her to get some, but on her way back home, someone stole it. Her family went without food for a week. My grandmother also saw her friends being shot on the street. I feel really bad for her that she had to go through this. Just yesterday she sounded so lonely on the phone. She has no family up there besides my dad, but he claims he’s “too busy” to visit her. They only see each other every two weeks or so.
