[quote=Anonymous]I lost my dear mother in 2020 during the pandemic, but not due to Covid. She was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer and after a brief but mighty 3 month fight, she passed peacefully while I was in the shower and my dad was asleep. My sister was on her way to tag-in.

I didn’t realize how I did not deal with this loss and grief as we rallied to make sure Dad was okay. 57 years of marriage and he was devastated. Last fall, Dad had surgery to repair an aneurysm. He was succumbed to complications following surgery and died with me by his side at the hospital.

Last month, my sister passed away unexpectedly.

I grieve my mother when my father died, and am still in shock over my sister’s death. Some days I can barely breathe. Other days, I chug along fine until I see something that reminds me of one of them, or think “Oh I need to call Dad to ask him about my HVAC system” or some other such thing. I am drowning in my sadness. I can’t believe I am the only one left of my family of origin. [/quote]
