It all started during spring break. My grandmother got a sickness that they couldn't identify. They later identified it as an upper respiratory infection which caused lots of coughing. They gave her steroids to control her cough, but that caused her to become what looked swelled. At the end of June, she stopped eating very much and was constantly sleeping. One June 6th, we picked up my sister from a church camp and immediately went to the nursing home. That was the last 30 minutes I had with her.
