Done

My grandmother passed away tonight.

I feel extraordinarily fortunate that I saw her on Monday, and that she was having a good day when I was there.

I feel extraordinarily fortunate that she died at home, on her terms.

And I feel horrible for being in Austin, TX, 2000 miles away, and not being able to do anything to help.
