I'm really sorry about your Nonna. I know what you mean about the traditions that are a part of her and the family. Hugs to you and your family in this difficult time. I hope she is comfortable. Some of the 'italianisms' you wrote of made me smile. My Nonna and Nonno used to use that language when they were alive. I think of my grandad when someone says the word 'chicken' or 'cake'.... he used to pronounce it 'Ooo chickenah' or 'Aaah Caek'.
