My grandma died at 4:00 this morning.

She went into the hospital over a week ago, and then into a nursing home. I guess she had had strokes. This last time in the hospital, she was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. She had been unhappy for a while now. She was having so much trouble getting around, and was scared that she was losing her sight. I think she's been ready to go.

The funeral will be on Thursday.

Of my cousins, one just had a baby so she won't be able to travel to the funeral. It's the birthday of another today, and he's got to work a fourteen hour shift. It sucks having to work at menial tasks with something like that on your mind. My aunt didn't tell the third cousin because his wife is out of town and she didn't want him to break down with no support.

My dad started calling relatives at 6:30 this morning. Most of them were out already.

She gave me quite a few plants, and a few seeds, but only in recent years have I been able to keep them alive. She'd always ask me about the plants, too. I think she remembered all the times I killed them.
