Different rooms

My paternal grandmother died today
Salivary gland cancer
In front of the family 
She peacefully passed away
Youngest brother said our father was strong 
Our uncle was resigned 
While he had consulted all his doctor classmates
Second brother was silent 
The caregiver was working hard to pump oxygen
My mother had the spunk to ask the doctors what would they do if they were in our shoes
Doctors said they would do nothing
I prayed that my family be spared from making a tough decision 
Voila the answer came at that instant that I was praying 
Coincidence
I do not think so 
To reach 95 I wonder how would that feel
But for now this has taught me about forgiveness and love for family
RIP Lola Nona
