Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that! Sorry for all of you, and I am certainly thinking of her. The lines above in reference to prayer make me realize that ones location has a lot to do with it. I'm used to saying it, but lived for so long in a mixed community that I never thought of it implying that everyone believed the same thing. Over on the left coast inter-faith groups are strong and often include people who just have faith that there's a greater energy out there that we are connected to, or that it's just nature herself. When someone would say they were praying for you there it was never clear if it was a buddhist, monotheist, pagan, great spirit or self invented energy that was being meditated to.

Well, all that incidental stuff aside, I am thinking of your aunt and cousins and mom and you and wishing/hoping that tons of healing energy are surging that way.
