She had been battling the effects of her diabetes and cirrhosis of the liver for quite some time. Her liver was giving out slowly, and toward the end, retained so much fluid that the doctors could not keep up with it. Susan was a great fighter right up until the end. Her brother and sister-in-law were en route to help her move into a nursing home at the time that she passed.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#990000'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS";color:#990000'>I will be getting more information about how she will be remembered for her time on earth.
