When the items turn up in Oma's oversized shopping bag that she carries around with her the family comes to the sad realization that she's in the early stages of Alzheimer's. But the journey from the past to new shared experiences reminds them that Oma is still Oma. And as Jeffrey watches his cherished grandmother dance about the house he reassures his grandfather She's still here.
