My Parents' Passing

Donation protected
Hello everyone,

It is with a heavy feeling in my insides that I type this right now. As I type this, we are preparing for another new life. My family has suffered two great losses in just the span of two months. First, my mother passed away on April 7th, 2016 from a sudden heart attack that claimed her life. She was our glue, the binding agent that held our family together, and when she passed, the struggles began. She is the woman in the dark shirt with glasses and the paw-prints t-shirt. My father had plans to help ease this time, but ultimately, we were relying on him. 

But, my father has just passed away this morning, and we are under way with trying to figure out everything that we will need to do now that he is gone. He is the man with the cane sitting down. I'm starting this page because I want to get a jump on our situation, as I don't know what the future holds now.

Between the hours of 3 to 4 am, my father passed away of a heart attack. He was found by my sister, and we immediately rushed to his aid, but we were too late. Despite the efforts of the paramedics that rushed to the scene, we were not able to resuscitate him back to life. His time of death was approximately 3:44 am. And now we are trying to pick up the pieces and sort through things with the knowledge that this will be a day at a time.

They were special, the pair of them, in our hearts. Both gave and gave, sacrificing for the sake of others. As I type this, the shock of the events of last night have not truly washed over me. The changes we will be making, and the idea that both of my parents are now gone, poses challenges that will slowly unveil themselves as we go through the coming processes.

I ask for anything. At this point, any help we can receive is more than generous. I don't know what's in store for us at this point, but anything is greatly appreciated.

Thoughts, prayers, and donations are all welcomed in this troubled time. I hate asking at all, I simply do not know what else to do as I am thinking of the future right now.
