I was told that my (paternal) Grandmother Alejandrina passed away at 3a.m. this morning. She had woken up to go to the restroom when she suddenly had a heart attack and fell to her death on the restroom floor

A couple years ago when my grandpa died, I hardly cried at all. He was my only grandfather (the other one died when my mom was still a kid). We heard first that he had collapsed, then we got the call a little later that he'd died. I cried when I found out he'd collapsed, but not very much when we learned he was gone. It's just the way I deal with things.
Try not to be too upset that you can't cry. It will come or it won't. It's just how you deal with it. It's hard, believe me I know.
My mother asked me a bit earlier if I even cared that she has gone. And I said "Yes! I do...I don't know what's wrong with me" but she seemed upset and left me.
I feel like I hardly knew her enough to cry over her.
You're just probably still in the denial stage of grieving. It's not weird or mean to not instantly cry when something like that happens. You still loved her and miss her. Your way of taking it is just this way. I'm a lot like that too though usually something random, like a photo or something that reminds me of someone, will trigger crying.
It's terrible but at least you got to spend some time with her and you loved her very much. She died loved and that's the best way to go. It's just terrible that it was so sudden.
It's things like this that remind us to let the ones we love know we love them because at any minute they could be taken away.
