[name_f]Corinna[/name_f] [name_f]Berniece[/name_f] Dupoint (80) is “Jojo”'s paternal grandmother. [name_f]Corinna[/name_f] was very disappointed to see her son suffer with alcoholism and tried to help him get treatment but eventually decided to take her grandchildren in to protect them from the fighting in the home. She still hopes that her son will get help and be able to become the boy that she raised. Despite her age she gets as involved as she can with grandchildren’s activities and to keep up with their interests. She is a retired nurse and widow who lives a mostly quite life now but when she was young she used to get up to wild shenanigans with her girlfriends many of whom she is still friends with. She is very appreciative of JoJo stepping up to help around the house but she also encourages her to “just be a kid” and spend time with her friends and on her schoolwork.
