My grandmother passed away from cancer about 5 years ago, so I've seen it, and it's not an easy thing to deal with, even if you're prepared. She'll be extremely fatigued, and will bear very little physical resemblance to the woman you've known your whole life. She will most likely be extremely weak, pale, and appear hollowed out. She also may have moments where she is not aware of her surroundings, or does not know who anybody is. When I visited my grandmother, she started talking about my sister, but using my name while I was standing right in front of her. If she is not going for treatment, that means she is ready to pass on, and will probably express that readiness verbally. It'll be hard to hear her speak like that, but you just have to let her. I am so sorry you and your family are going through this. I remember clearly my own experience, and it was one of the hardest two weeks of my life. I will be praying for your family, and for your grandmother as well.
