There are a million+ devout, faithful, God-loving, church-going cancer sufferers (my mother-in-law, God rest her soul, was one of them) who would beg to differ with this ignorant, pious statement. You should be ashamed of this statement.

Christ did not promise a lack of suffering in this world for his followers- in fact he guaranteed suffering. If your grandmother believed in Him, then her soul is indeed with God, which is the ultimate blessing. And there's nothing at all to be ashamed about proclaiming that fact.
