Hi I am new to the forum & wanted to share the challenges I have experienced over the past year, when I was six years old I lost my father to a massive heart attack leaving our family of two girls and one boy, my mum could not cope our lives were never the same again. Seventeen years later the oldest of us had my Mum and Dads first grandchild a little boy, mum was the proudest grandmother I had ever known she felt this was her way of bringing back the family she lost seventeen years ago. Then sadly fourteen months later sudden death struck again we lost him (BLAKE) my nephew his heart gave way on him he was diagnosed with a rare disorder called Williams Syndrome. My mother could not take the loss again she started fading away and could not erase the images of her grandson laying dead in her arms once again another man in her life in her arms dead. My mother lasted five months after the death of Blake and mysteriously fell ill, New Year’s night as I slept by her bed side in hospital she took a turn and stoped breathing she was then placed on a life support machine. We sent her to the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney the next day. My older sister and younger brother made it to Sydney the day after but she had already past on that day. I always knew the day would come but not so soon my mother was only 47 years old I am 23 and with both my parents in my heart but out of my life is such a weird feeling, I am so scared of how it will affect me within a couple of weeks I am so scared to break down. I know that there are a lot of people in this forum who know what I speak of I’ve been reading so many stories that sound so familiar, I treasured my mother thinking that she is all I have left in this world and I can’t go on if she were to leave me, she gave me comfort like nobody else in this world could I still feel her with me but I can feel my heart breaking slowly as this nightmare that I have been going through this month becomes reality I know mum is where she had longed for over the seventeen years my father has been gone that gives me comfort it was the right time but really there is never a right time...
