My story

Here's the story of the last 4 months of my life .

My life is not hard but not easy from school , work and everything else a 17 year old does; but one thing that has made it harder was when I got the call . On July 21,2021 at 6:29 pm I got a call it was my cousin he told me that my mom passed away . I was broken my mom was my best friend and biggest supporter so hearing the news she was gone hurt a lot . I told him that I wasn't home but that I would be home soon . One thing I noticed was that it felt like time slowed down each minute seemed like an hour . So after I hung up I told my friend I needed to go home and that something happened . It took me an hour to get home and it was the longest hour of my life . We raced to were she was and packed up her stuff the next day . So many family members were by me and my family's side . It didn't fully settle in until the day of her funeral . I woke up like any other day but It wasn't just any other day . It was the day I said my final good byes to my mom and the last Time I'd ever look at her face that wasn't just a photo of her . No one ever warns you about seeing a loved one in a casket it's like there sleeping . Her hair was brushed and her nails were still done how she had them when I last seen her . I cried the whole time I was in there I held her hand and gave her one more kiss on the cheek and said my goodbyes then went and sat out in the lobby of the funeral home . A few days later all the family that came down left and it was me and my family . Grief is weird cause you hurt one day but you don't the next . I lost a lot of hope in my self for a while and let my self go now I have a full time job and I will be graduating this year if u have anything on ur mind just go to my social media links in my bio .
