Tragic loss for my family today

Hello everyone. For anyone who doesn’t know me, my names Mikie. Though I think a good number of you are familiar with me by now. I do my best to interact and be an active member of this community in every way I can whenever possible.

As many of you know by now, my mother has been dealing with some health issues that sprang up out of nowhere earlier this year. It’s been taking a toll on both her and myself and my siblings. Both emotionally and financially.

Unfortunately I’m so heartbroken to write this but my Mother passed away this morning asleep in her bed. :broken_heart: This morning was probably the most traumatic experience I’ve ever had in my entire life. I was the one who found her. I won’t go into the details from there, but it was very very hard. I’m in shambles typing this. My mom was an enormous part of my life and I’m definitely a mommas boy, no doubt. Even though she was dealing with some health issues, it wasn’t supposed to be life treating and nobody saw this coming. This is a major blow to my family. At this point I really don’t know how to carry on at least not in this moment. My six siblings and some of my nieces and nephews have all been here just supporting each other and leaning on one another.

My mother was always the most generous person I’ve ever known she was always quick to help out others in need everywhere she went and a lot of people depended on her for a lot of things.

Unfortunately this year she was down on her luck financially and that created a huge burden for her.

I writing this post coming to the community that I love so much and that has been there for me at times when no one else was, and asking for help. We need to raise as much as possible in a short time. I’m in the process of creating a go fund me, I should have a link to that here shortly. If you are willing and able, any small contribution would help us immensely and be more appreciated than I can ever express in words. My mom’s name is Theresa. And I already miss her so much :sob:.

I will post the link here in a few minutes I’m just waiting for it to verify my bank info.

I will also post a link directly to my PayPal account since that’s where the funds will be going anyway. If you want to just donate that way, it’s also faster, easier and less hassle and fees. Again any help is greatly appreciated. And I know times are tough all over financially so if you can’t donate anything. No worries at all. I urge all of you, if possible, to call ur mom and tell her u love her.

Thank you for reading.

Here is the go fund me link if anyone. Would rather use that. The preferred method would be PayPal for less hassle later but either are totally fine… thanks to everyone who’s reached out with kind words. I’m so grateful. The words help more than u think. So thank you.

Sent Prayers and what I could at this moment.

I have been going through Grief support for the last 6 months. When you get through this initial chaos, maybe look into getting some support.

I am sorry for the Loss of Ms. Theresa.

I lost my mother 4 years ago, right around this time. It does get easier but it changes you. Embrace your new world as best you can and do seek out support. Best my friend. Joshua
