Bereaved in Chicago

In a letter to K and A:

My little 90-year-old Nana died this morning :'( The events leading to that took up most of my weekend, beginning at 6 in the AM on Friday... so, nothing too fun/exciting to report, except that I was so sleep deprived at one point that I almost went for real hysterical... and that could have been real interesting, honestly... it might have been interesting in a movie or something... just so you know though, I'm doin alright. When she was in the hospital, my heart broke into tiny pieces, but once she was out of pain, I felt sorry for myself, but glad because I really do have strong faith (believe it or not)... and I've seen enough people die to come to the conclusion that the remains of a person is not really the person you knew... you know? just kind of the box that holds the present... or like how the ring symbolizes a marriage, but the spirit of the relationship is what the marriage really is... something like that. But I know I'll miss her in ways that I can't even imagine yet.
