I received some very bad news yesterday day from Jessie. Grandma Sweet has passed away. So I don't have to try and retype the information, here is what I sent to my staff:
" My grandmother Sweet passed away yesterday somewhat unexpectedly. In the last week or so she has been in the hospital and a rehabilitation center because she stopped taking some medication and grew weak. She fell down and that started a whole avalanche of stuff. She was an incredibly strong woman and I think she felt it was time. She was 90 and didn't really move around. She hated being driven to the doctor, refused to use a walker, and I think she got sick of taking all of the medication. A couple of days ago it sounded like things were getting better and they were going to send her home. But yesterday morning the nurses went to check on her early in the morning and she had passed. Sounds like it was peaceful and on her terms. This means that there is a good chance I won't be here Friday for Admitted Student Day since I will have to go down to California. I will likely know more today but am anticipating the service, etc. will be later this week or this weekend. This has been a bad 2 years for the Sweet family. My dad passed away almost 2 years ago, my aunt Lila passed away about 6 months ago, and now my grandmother."
