This is horrible :(

I think it would be great if someone could translate it for us. Utada and her mom apparently left their grandma in isolation because of "financial problems" until she died of cancer. Some of the more ravenous fans of Ayumi, Namie, Koda, etc. that I know, began to criticize Utada for seemingly ignoring the needs of her grandmother. I think a proper translation instead of google translate is needed to verify the veracity of this matter.

I hope Hikki doesn't feel too sad
