Gallstones, Meet The Gallstones
“This is my grandmother posing proudly with her gallstones. She had them removed as a teenager and was told they were the biggest they’d ever seen. I shared her pride in this and lucky for me I was willed the actual gallstones when she passed away.”

Clown Crew
“This pic is from the late 60s, taken on Long Island. My aunt Donna and Uncle John with their grandma (my great) Mabel and a terrifying painting of a clown painted by my mom. My aunt with the cat was all about saving animals at that point but grew up to be an amazing saver of humans – she was a 9/11 first responder and is now working in a Covid unit at a hospital in Virginia.”

Glamour Grams
“My grandmother and great grandmother around 1992 or 93. According to my grandma, ‘We went to one of those photo places in the Palm Desert mall and they duded us up like floozies. We howled when we saw these pictures.'”
