Need My Niners
Hey ladies, I know you are all great T&P givers, so I'm coming to you.
My mom passed away last night. I haven't really had time to process anything, a police officer came by last night around 10 and told me her roomates hadn't seen her leave her room all day. Matt and I actually stopped by yesterday around 4 because she didn't answer her phone, but her roomates knocked on the door and said she didn't answer, so I told them to tell her we stopped by. I guess when she still didn't answer leter, they checked on her and found her laying in her bed with her phone in her hands playing a card game. I think it was a seizure, she'd been in and out of the hospital a few times this year for seizures and was taking anti-anxiety meds for her super high blood pressure and I'm not sure what else.
My dad is on his way down to help Matt and I with arrangements. Her family is distant and I'm not even sure they'd be interested in having a service. I'm her only child so I have to go through everything, though she didn't have much...
With all that's happened this week, the earthquake, the hurricane, evacuating and trying to get back home, the tornado warnings last night and now this, I'm surprised I haven't started going into PTL... but I have the next 3 days off so I'm planning on taking it easy and getting my head on straight.
I'm babbling. But I thought I'd just ask for any words or thoughts from my amazing niners.
Re: Need My Niners
Stand up for something you believe in.
Let us know if you need anything at all. I know you probably have no idea where to start but take it slow and you will figure it out! We are all here for you to babble anytime... its never babbling with the niners.

Oh my gosh. I am so so sorry. There's really nothing else to even say. My dad actually was having undiagnosed seizures too when he passed away and it was just as sudden and unexpected.
I know how hard it is to lose a parent so fast and without any preparation and I wish I had better words than I am just so sorry for your loss. Take any help that people offer, it's just a lot to handle. Make sure you try to keep taking care of yourself and give yourself time to be away from any chaos that might be going on.
If you need anything at all, message me on FB or here.. Again, I'm so sorry. I'll be thinking of you.
