The hospice workers told my ma a week or two ago that my gma's health was deteriorating, and that she probably only had a few weeks left. She was moved to a new hospice care facility, where they could monitor her around the clock & properly medicate her so she wouldn't suffer from the cancer she'd recently developed.
I got a text from ma tonight, saying that the hospice workers had called her yesterday - gma passed away around 4:30p on Wednesday. I imagine she was too emotional to actually be able to talk, so I understand her use of a text message, and of waiting to let us know. My uncle (her brother) has flown up from Florida & is here now. We're meeting tomorrow evening for dinner and to go over funeral arrangements.
I'm sad, but I'm also relieved, and in an odd way, happy for her. She'd been tired of being here for a long while now, and once she became ill, she was mentally miserable. I know she didn't want to hang on forever, and that she was probably glad to be moving on to the next plane. I hope my ma & uncle are doing alright. I imagine they feel much the same as I do regarding her moving on, although I know they're infinitely sadder than I.
