About a month ago I posted about my grandmother turning 99.
A couple of weeks ago, she fell while trying to get out of bed, even though she knew she wasn't supposed to even attempt that without anyone there to help her. She ended up in the hospital for a short overnight stay, then when she returned home, she just wasn't quite the same.
She had trouble communicating and was a little bit disoriented. Very quickly that turned into not recognizing my dad, and then calling out to her family members who had already passed on.
A week ago, my aunt and cousin happened to be with her as she passed away quietly and peacefully.
This has been extremely difficult for my aunt, as she was my grandma's caregiver for many years. Now my aunt is all alone in her home. I'm sure she'll adjust in time, but it will never be the same.
Rest in peace Grandma.

What a blessing your Aunt was to your Grandmother!

I am so sorry for your loss. I'll be thinking of all of you.
Sorry to hear of your loss. But glad to hear that it was a peaceful passing. When its time for me to go that is the way I wish to go, home with family.
I will be thinking of you with the warmest wishes for you and your family.
