It's very good that she didn't have to suffer long. And just think, every time you use that cookie recipe, you'll have happy memories of her. I've got a lot of my Grandma's recipes, as well. When she was in the hospital, I just couldn't get myself to see her like that. She was only there for a week before she died. I took Duke and visited her at the nursing home a lot. My favorite thing about my grandmother was her laugh. You should share some of your favorite things about yours when you feel a little better.
