> My British grandmother, who was blind and bedridden by the time I was
born, insisted on writing out her own cheques and signing them herself.  So
my grandfather made her a little template out of a thin sheet of metal,
cutting out holes where the cheques would be filled in and she used that
thereafter to fill them out and sign them.  My mother would then go and take
her to the bank, or do her banking for her.
