    UA-cam recommended your first loss of a parent video to me. I watched it and it led me to this video.
    I recently lost my mother to cancer that she was diagnosed with 5 weeks prior. I'm an only child, just me and my dad. It was so sudden, but at the same time expected, but not in the timeframe which it occurred. We had a great day at home the day before she passed. And then all of the sudden it was "you have hours, at most 24."
    I realize that I am fortunate, that we had a few hours after the final bad news to be with my mother and converse, play music, and share pictures. Other people aren't so lucky, they lose their loved ones in a sudden accident. We were also spared a long painful journey through treatment that would have ended with the same result. I'm at peace with her death, I'm having the harder time with my loss.
    I love how you explain that the Five Stages of Grief are not a linear path. I find myself experiencing one or multiple at the same time, and back and forth. You said it perfectly that sometime I'll see something that brings me to tears and sometimes feels like a warm hug.
    I appreciate the virtual hug, I reached my arms out to receive it lol
    Thanks for your video, it was brought to me exactly when I needed it

    I lost my mother last week, I hadn't seen her physically for two years before hearing she passed….on top of only being 17 it hurts so bad because I really had no one else. I'm not sure what to do atm

      You are so so so resilient and stepping up to admit you feel lost or hurt is a start. Be kind and patient with your heart. I lost my father Sunday and my mom and my dad are all I got that’s really close. I am fearful of losing my mom but I know in each of us is a strength and love we aren’t aware of until things happen. Praying for you to not feel alone, and I hope warmth and healing is provided to you always ❤️🙏🏾
