Hey everyone.

This has been one of the hardest weeks of my life. I'm staying strong for my mom, she lost her step-mom who raised her. The thing is that last week... I found her in my grandfather's room and she had already passed gone when I was looking for her through the house. To be honest, I was extremely calm through the process of calling the paramedics and police. I did everything I could and knew to do in terms of moving her and such, but I knew she was gone. I'm always optimistic, but as soon as the police told me; "Who's going to pick-up the body."

I was doing everything to not vent on the internet, but I'm filled with so much pain and hurt atm. My grandfather (her husband) has been in the nursing home and now he's close to passing as well. Its life and I have lost loved one previously, but now with being older and having an understanding of death than I did ten years ago. The pain is just extremely immense and I have toughed this whole process out and doing the best for my mom and the rest of the family. My mom has essentially lost her pillars and now I have to be her rock for once. Making that phone call to tell her was probably the most horrifying thing so have ever done. It was a week ago, today and I'm always going to remember it vividly.

Yet, her health has dwindled for years though, but it was her time to go. She went out like a gangsta tbh, she just went shopping the day before and went to her favorite fabric shop LMAO. That Friday, I was supposed to take her to Macy's, too. All the memories... Life is something else with its beauty and madness at the same time. I'm just rambling now and trying to hold back tears, but everything is just going down at once it feels like.

Love your family everyone, no matter what bull****, pettiness, games, etc. Love your family like nothing else because anything can happen at anytime. Thanks for reading this sob story, but I needed to get some more of this pressure go.
 
Sorry to hear that bud. Stay strong for mom but you need to grieve too.
 
Stay strong for you and your family.
 
So sorry to hear of your loss. May you find comfort in friends and those who you know understand and grieve with you. Life throws a curveball now and then and each one makes us a better person. You'll do fine as long as you remember the good times. Sincere condolences.
 
I am am sorry for your loss.
 
We laid her to rest today and I'm so happy. She doesn't have to suffer anymore and I'm going to miss calling her every morning. I loved her so much and she's missed terribly.

After I graduate, I will put all of my diplomas (copies) on her grave. I wanted her to see me graduate with my bachelors, but I will still make it happen. She wanted to see me graduate because she wanted her ALL of her grand-children to be in college.
