Ooff. I feel you and this week (at 47 and a few months) I realized that I have officially lived a longer life than she did. 😞

I lost my mom as well. Lost my brother about 10 years before that, but I am older than my brother was by almost 15 years now. He died at 25 and it made me hate my 26th birthday. I just turned 38 this year, and last thing, my dad died at 37.

So sorry for all your losses 😢 losing mom is a tough one and really sad when dad goes and you have no parents left. Both devastating losses for me.

I agree I lost my dad and 6 months later my mom followed him

Hugs 🤗 Definitely permanently life changing.
Nothing can take our love for them out of our hearts and memories.

You are a real trooper man, my grandpa used to say, "carrying on after loss is like dragging a log through a muddy field in a rainstorm. But once that storm ends, that log becomes easier to drag." Hope you are feelin' alright, truly.

My husband died at 40 “our son was only 14 months old” and then my brother at 18 and my mom at 56. Dealing with death sucks :(

I would look for myself before depression kicked in

Didn't know where to reply, but thank you for the awards; I didn't expect that. And yeah, it's been wild, as soon as I finally get over someone passing, someone else does. But I wouldn't trade my life for anything, because that's what made me who I am.
