Mom. You did not deserve this. Years of pain, constant drives to Moffitt Cancer Center. Tiny claustrophobic machines, needles, breast removal surgery, hair loss, falls, TWO brain surgery’s, chemo, radiation, pills, diabetes, long drives, ambulances, months of steroids, tears, pain. 11.11.2022 will forever be the worst day of my life. She just got good news a few days before. We had so many things left to do. What I had to see haunts me. I guess your heart couldn’t hold anymore. I’m sorry I ever argued with you, as you were right every time. I’m absolutely shattered. Now I’m supposed to just keep going without my mom? My guide? Now what? The worst part is the thought of forever. You aren’t coming back for Christmas? Not even in a year? 5 years? How am I supposed to do this? She was my best friend, the only person I would call and constantly be around. I cannot believe I’m even writing this. Everything my mom went through, it really bothered me how much other people would complain all the time. I never want to hear anybody tell me they are “stressed” or “having a bad day” EVER again. YOU can literally go your entire life without raising your voice and complaining. My mom very much enjoyed how I was working with foster kids here in Florida. Safe Children Coalition has been great with the flexible hours, so I could check in on mom. Melissa Jo Parker - she worked in health care her entire life. I’ve heard amazing stories of how she has helped others. What she did at United Family Medicine in St Paul, MN was nothing short of amazing. She left in 2019 and it sounds like the place fell apart. She loved the simple things in life. Fishing, camping. I think I will need help forever. I cannot breathe without a pain in my heart. I cry almost 24 hours a day, and I’m still waiting for her to come back home. This isn’t real. My sister is now left without a dad or a mom at 21 years old. I love you Izzy. My mom fought everyday for us and we will fight for her. All she wanted was for us to be happy. Mom never wanted attention or help and absolutely hated having her picture taken. I have attached a gofundme page. Please don’t donate unless you absolutely can, as she would never want someone else to struggle. She never wanted anyone to help. You can share it, like it, whatever you want. You can message me for an address. All received donations will go to medical bills, and unpaid bills. Remaining donations will help me and my sister. I’m sure we are going to have medical bills for ourselves for a long time to come. I now also have to consider affordable relocation, moms cats, a dog, and storage. I apologize for not responding to anybody, but I’m just not ready. If you’ve lost your mom in your 20’s please send me a message, as I would like to hear from others with experience how to survive this pain. “Best mom ever” is used a lot, right along with “I only see my mom on holidays” I truly have the best mom ever. I can’t thank you enough for the best years of my life. Mom, I love you. I love you every day every second and forever, until I take my last breath. I love you to infinity and beyond.
