I honestly have to say thank you, thank you, thank you all for your kind thoughts, prayers, etc. during this insanely difficult time.
Grandma passed today, oddly enough I found out on my way home from my interview. My mom is a mess, but this evening she sounded more like herself than she has over the past week. We cried and cried when we talked and then in typical form, laughed and laughed over random, silly stuff.
My dad and I decided we're going to go down to CA for the service, which will likely be next week. My mom has her BFF with her, and her and her brother are getting along well, which is so great.
I told my mom I don't know how she managed as a mom to tell me about all the deaths we went through when I was younger, because telling DD tonight was seriously very difficult.
Seriously, I owe you all so much. You have no idea how much your kind words have meant to me.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm glad your mom seems to be back to herself - strangely, sometimes death can be the closure and stress relief we need, even when it's someone we truly love.
