A comfort at the end

This blanket that my sons and I made for their grandma for Christmas was used for the final time last week when she passed on after a serious heart attack. We brought the blanket and some music CDs to the hospital to comfort her during her final hours. This is a brief post as we attend to all the things that come with a death in the family.
