Without knowing that I can`t answer.

I don`t think there is ever a correct answer. The child could have an undetected health condition and die tomorrow. The grandmother may have 20 years of life left.

In reality, even if I knew a child would die if I saved the grandmother (mine or that of another person) I would probably still try to save the grandmother.

As sad and cold as this thinking is - you can make another baby. You can`t make another grandmother.

Let's not nit pick at the tiniest details. It was meant to be a broad question in order to get different answers.

Yes, the granny could live for 20 more years, and the child could have a disorder, but usually, it's not like that. Think of it more broadly, than trying to nit pick at the details.
