Chapter 14

On page 269, when Grandfather is writing in his letter about calling grandma, he says, "I told her everything: why I'd left , where I'd gone, how I'd found out about your death, why I'd come back, and what I needed to do with the time I had left. I told her because I wanted her to believe me and understand, and because I thought I owed it to her, and to myself, and to you, or was it just more selfishness?"

I was really confused about what was happening here.

How was he telling her everything if he can't speak?
She didn't know who it was on the phone, or at least that is what I took from the reading, so why did he keep calling?
What was he trying to say using the numbers that he typed? Is that what he wanted to tell her?
