I remember this one clearly, even though it happened as a kid.
My grandmother fell ill and was hospitalised.
My mother, my brother and I, along with myriad aunts, uncles and cousins, spent hours in church praying and, as she got progressively worse, the prayers became more fervent.
But no amount of prayer worked and my grandmother was moved to hospice with cancer and died a few months afterwards, aged in late fifties (the Anderson women tend to drop before hitting 60).

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:
"You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
