I've been trying to be supportive, my bro's better at that.. sometimes I kind of block myself off during these situations, especially when I'm angry/upset - so I try to console her too, but I can't even cry about it yet so I'm not much help other than to be a shoulder to cry on and tell her over and over again that she did everything she could, and that my aunt was found in her favorite chair at home in her nightgown, so even though she it was her time and that's tragic, it seems she went peacefully.

I think we'll all get closure on Friday. It will be a tough day for everyone, but I know we'll pull through.. we've done it before and this time will be no different.


Right now I'm just thinking that I don't think I'm entirely ready to grieve yet. I go back and forth between being okay with how the situation panned out (like I was this AM), and then being angry again, and then starting to feel sad about her death, and reminiscing about the great times we had, and then being angry again.... Just processing, I guess...

It will take time, but you'll all get there. Hopefully you get there sooner so you can be the stronger support for your mom and for everybody. Yours is more of a challenge because of some debilitating factors, you get angry with the fact she's gone and grieve it and then you also get angry of the cousin of yours for not being attentive and again grieve your loss. It's going to be a roller coaster, take your time.

If your mom doesn't talk as much to any of you even to your dad, it's OK. Your presence is enough. I have been in your mom's position, I just didn't care to talk to anyone, but I appreciated their presence and their nurturing attitude even if I acted so passive.

I'm thinking... I like birthdays, just not the getting older part. lol

I'm back! ......Well maybe. lol I havent posted in sooo long.
