My mom has died today after 2 months of fighting and infection. No not Ebola. After 13+ years of kidney failure her fight was lost today. I just don't know what to do. I won't be hearing her play candy crush in the mornings knowing how she's awake. I won't be randomly calling her noob anymore cause she used to play games with me. No more yelling at me just to get my attention for no reason just to annoy me. No more driving with her to wherever just for the lulz. No more anything. I'm posting here cause league was my life for 4 years now. Leagues been here for me through it all. Rest in peace I love you mom.item 3070 item 3070 item 3070 item 3070

I logged in just to to lend some extra support.

Stay strong. There may not be any replacement for your mom, but you'll always have all those great memories together.

I know there's nothing I can say that will make your loss easier, but you have my deepest condolences. We're here for you if you need us; when it truly matters, we aren't pure awful.

I wish there were meaningful words I could say that would help you. I wish I knew how to make things okay again for you. I feel like I should. It's been two years since my own mother died, so you'd think I'd have some pretty awesome words of wisdom or something.

But there aren't words. There's nothing I - or anyone - can do. Grief and loss are so completely unique and personal that no one's experiences can ever truly be meaningful or helpful to you. So you have my sympathy, and an open ear if you need to commiserate about it.

The only other thing I can offer is a look at what helped me. My next semester in school, I chose to take a course on grief, because I felt like I needed help understanding how to approach the situation. I wound up being unable to complete the course, so I tried again the next semester. I mention this because the coursework and required reading changed between those two semesters. And more than anything else, the books I read for those courses have been of immense help in my growth into this new life. If there's anything I can offer that I think might actually be able to help you, it's these books.

I Wasn't Ready to Say Goodbye by Pamela Blair and Brook Noel The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion

I hope they help. And feel free to add me in game if you need someone to talk to about anything. Or if you want someone to not talk about it with. Just remember you're not alone.

Go to Burning Man.

Write that on the Temple.

Be there when it burns.

She will be proud of you.

how old was your mom ? Because one day people must die, if she was over 70 it's the life even if its hard.

She was 56.
