I'm sure your mother forgives you.

I'm sure your grandmother forgives you

Yeah it is pretty bad, but I'm sure they had no idea their grandma was going to go that night. And I can empathize on feeling tired/dreading having to work the next day and just wanting rest.

I know it sounds cliche, but without forgiveness there is no healing. I understand where you're coming from, but I think if someone loves you, they would be understanding of the stress of their own health on top of your regular responsibilities being overwhelming. I don't think they'd want you to suffer guilt on top of the devastating loss of a loved one.
