FlahDah man.
We mourn with you.

My family is a mess. My brothers and sisters rarely reach out to my parents. I have spoke with my parents and will not be at their funeral.

They understand my point because I could not shut up when all of a sudden the kids show up to root thru all their stuff. I look at this way, I showed respect while they were alive. It is too late after they pass.

OK Bozos, stop clowning around.

Everyone seems to have those few assholes in their family that look to improve their position in life when others pass on.

I myself know I am going to end up in court when my mom and her husband pass away. He has a daughter that is a serious POS and will do everything she can to get every dime possible. She doesn't deserve a damn thing in my eyes and hasn't been around in 10 years but that won't stop her.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Covid is no joke and should be taken seriously. My wife works in a hospital and things have spiraled out of control in the past month. Do everything you can to be safe until getting the vaccine. It will be very interesting to see the studies about this virus in the future. Where did it originate (nature or man made), why does it affect some more than others, how does it really spread, are there simple cures, etc.

Really sorry for the loss of your mother OP, and my condolences go out to you and your family. This thread made me think about what it would be like when my parents are gone and the thought of not being able to simply just call them to talk crushes me. My parents are in their mid 60s so they are vulnerable but my mom thinks she already had it and I'm hoping my dad is just asymptomatic since he has likely been exposed to it either from work or from my mom if she did have it.

I know how intense this virus can be as it has been wreaking havoc on me still even though I got over the initial intense part in just 2 days after symptoms started back on December 4th. I feel like I'm mostly in the clear now but I was throwing up on Christmas night and the days following because something happens with your stomach where you just lose your appetite entirely. Some food will sound good yet you take 2 or 3 bites and then the next thing you know you are throwing it up or it just doesn't sit well and then your appetite is gone for the rest of the day. On top of that I get random hot flashes that come on within seconds and makes me sweat immediately, and I have also found myself struggling to breath a few times. Usually it's while laying down and I will just get a random moment where I'm not inhaling and it's a small struggle that takes some focus to really get enough air. That compared to my girlfriend who is still getting migraines and is just overall exhausted all the time, and then her sister who managed to only get pink eye while her husband was almost in the hospital with Covid and pneumonia.

The vitamins and supplements do help a lot though so I recommend everyone take them now if you aren't already.

My mom was 75 years old and perfectly healthy with no underling health conditions. She drove every day, trained and competed with her dog weekly and her mom is 93 years old and healthy so she was hardly at the end of her life by any means. Came down with Covid and was in the hospital within 3 days.

It attacked her lungs and by day #2 both lungs had collapsed and by day #3 she had total organ failure and died. Covid-19 is on her death certificate. It and it alone killed her. Its no joke. Make sure ur parents and grand parents wear their masks properly.

The nurse told me there was a 40 year old woman who came in two weeks ago perfectly healthy and died in the same way my mother did so be careful out there. Get the vaccine if u can. Im getting mine next week.

Lost my father to Dementia 2 years ago.
Lost my little sister to a Drug Overdose (Fentanyl) last year.
Lost my Mom to Covid.

My whole family is now gone smh. Go see ur parents and appreciate them if they're still alive cause when they're gone u will wish u had.
So very sorry to hear this, Brett.

My sincere condolences.

You and your entire family will be in my prayers, bro.

Losing someone is never easy but I think it is compounded when it comes to mom. Hopefully the op has people he can talk with if things get bad.

I am sorry for your loss Brett. We buried my mother today at age 85 and unfortunately they will say it was covid. Both of my parents had it. My dad of 95 went through it without a hitch, it really does effect people differently
I feel your pain.
