To provide more insight on what happened:

Janet was admitted to Brockville General Hospital early Monday morning and was quickly transferred to Kingston General Hospital. She was diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia.

Unfortunately, the acute promyelocytic leukemia affected her organs. Her kidneys had stopped producing urine and had completely failed by Wednesday morning. She had a severe infection in her lungs which needed her to be put on life support. She also suffered from pneumonia because of this.

All the life support machines were working at maximum capacity, unfortunately it was not enough to save our dearest Janet.

She passed away peacefully in the Intensive Care Unit at Kingston General Hospital with her family and friends by her side.
