Eric Stonestreet: “Alright. Where’s—do we know where mom is? What do they say? You don’t shoot
with animals, children, or your mom.”
[In Wardrobe]
Eric: “David I think I need a little… Okay. You have your own hair person.
David is my hair person. Well, this is a betrayal. Go ahead.”

Jamey Stonestreet: “My name’s Jamey Stonestreet, um, and this is my son.”
Eric: “She is a busy person. It’s tough to get on her calendar. A friend of mine, he said, ‘Well I
was trying to take lunch over to your mom, but literally can’t. She can’t squeeze me in!’”
Jamey: “That’s right. You never know which appointments I may have: movies, shopping, lunches at
friends’. You know, you gotta have people.”
[On Sidewalk]
Car of friends: “Jamey! Hi!”
Jamey: “Hi!!”
[At Mailbox]
Friends: “Hi, Jamey! Hi!”
Jamey: “Hi guys!”

Jamey: “You have to keep going to keep going, that’s what my mom said.”
Eric: “My Grandma Helen had GA, geographic atrophy, which is the advanced stage of dry AMD, which
is what my mom has.”
Jamey: “My mom overcame so many things.”
Eric: “She was always kind of looking out of the side of her eye at me, because she could see
somewhat peripherals. I think you guys had a family meeting that decided okay, time for Helen to
hang up the car keys.”
Jamey: “And I think giving up driving was worse than giving up her home. You know, it’s your last,
really, form of independence.”
Eric: “She was such a tough woman, and so resilient, and so positive at the end of the day no
matter what she was going through. And so, you know, with mom having dry AMD, we want to make sure
that it doesn’t progress. She stays on top of going to the doctor and listening to what he has to
say about eye care and healthcare in general. But we also know, because of how they were with my
grandma, if it progresses, mom’s going to be taken care of. As we’ve gone through health issues in
our family, we always try to find humor.
Jamey: “I’m sure Eric would move in to take care of me.”
Eric: “I was going to say Siberia, but uh, you just order in. Get your deliveries sent over,
right?”
[At Front Door]
Jamey: “Owen! Hi, come on in! How are you?”
Owen: “I was just bringing in groceries.”
Jamey: “Oh, that is so sweet of you.”
Owen: “Want me to put them where I normally do?”
Jamey: “Yeah, sure. Have you ever met my son?”
[In Kitchen]
Owen: “Oh, no. I haven’t. Hi, I’m Owen.”
Eric: “Nice to meet you.”
Owen: “And you are?”
Eric: “Uh, my name’s Eric.
Owen: “Eric?”
Eric: “Yeah, yeah. Eric. Fairly well-known person in—nothing. I didn’t say anything.”
[In Living Room]
Jamey: “I go to the doctor regularly to get checked. You need to protect your eye when you’re out
in the sun. Eating certain foods are good for your eye—leafy green vegetables and things like
that. As you age, you know, things change. And if, you know, you would notice any type of
difference in your eyesight, you know you go check other parts of your body. You should check your
eyes too.”
