My grandmother passed away this morning.

She was in very bad shape this morning, so they took her to the hospital. When she arrived, she had gone into cardiac arrest. They tried CPR, but they couldn't revive her.

She hadn't been doing well for several years, but this was somewhat of a surprise.

She has a plot next to my grandfather at a cemetery in Detroit.

She was 88. We're glad she lived a long life.

It will get better. I know it sounds hollow at the time, but it gets better with time.
