On the way to the hospital, I talked to my mom. My mom actually had COVID at that time and was unable to come, which was awful. They wouldn't let her in the hospital. My mom basically said all she knew was that she had collapsed and that she was unresponsive and that they had taken her to the hospital. All we knew at that point was they were still working on her.

The doctor came in and told us that there's really not much more that they could do for her and that we need to go say goodbye. That was the first time I had seen her when they told us that she wasn't going to make it. And it was awful. She was hooked up to all these machines and she was breathing, but she was only breathing because of the machine like stuck in her throat.

Just remember sitting in the waiting room, just not knowing what was going on, but also like, there's no way that she's gonna die. Like she just went through this terrible situation. Like there's no way that that's gonna happen one after the other. And I just felt so bad for her because she had survived this terrible tragedy and she can't even like see it through.

I don't think anything can prepare you for what we went through. I think it's just still, we're still not even over it.

My name is Carly Hyland. I am Tina Lohman's granddaughter. So just to kind of put that in perspective, my mother is Heidi Young, who is her oldest daughter.

I know she was born and raised in California. She was an only child. My great-grandmother struggled to have children, so my grandma was her miracle child. She wasn't able to have any children after my grandmother, so she was very spoiled as a child.

Her father was big in the oil industry in Europe, so she lived in Italy for a while. She was able to travel to, like, around Europe, Paris, Italy.

But she loved it here, and her mother loved it here. It just appealed to them because it's close to big cities like Chicago and St. Louis, but it's far enough away to where it has that small-town feel.

Being the granddaughter of Tina Lohman was delightful. She knew how to spoil kids and her grandkids. She definitely made you feel loved. You know, I could always go to her if I just needed a vent or if I needed chocolate, I needed ice cream, whatever. She's always willing to listen to you. I couldn't ask for a better grandma. You just felt love when you were around her.
