Hi Dorrie! I am sorry I didn't see this sooner. I feel very sad for you. My Gram was my soul sister. That's what we always said to each other, altho I don't think Gram really knew what it meant. She had breast cancer also.
She beat it 25 yrs earlier, but it came back and a cure was not to be found. What parallels your story is, that my Gram also gave ME the family bible. How similar our relationships w/our special, loving, wonderful Grams are. She has been gone since 1990, but I think about her all the time.
I smile and feel a warm heart when I do, as I have the most amazing memories. take care and I do know the pain you are feeling.
She sounds just like my Gram...
hugz.
