On & Off the Blog:
I don’t even know where to start. I have had a rough few months since the last time I was here. My mom passed suddenly and it has threw us all off course it was a complete and utter shock. We had an early Easter since my mom and sister were going to Florida the weekend of Easter. We had a great day on Saturday, April 12th enjoyed a nice dinner and hanging out. On Sunday, April 13th we had a cheer showcase for my daughter, We all went and after my mom came over to color eggs with my daughter since it is there yearly thing. Monday. April 14th she took my daughter to school and also the cheer practice. I spoke to her at 5:30, my sister spoke to her at 8 and my aunt (her sister) spoke to her at nine.
The morning, Tuesday April 15th. I was going to work my daughter called and said my mom hasn’t come to pick her up and she was going to be late. She tried calling but no answer. I called my sister who in turn said she was going to the house. I was at work, I locked my keys in my car (because of course I did) so I had to wait for my sister to call me back before I could leave work. When she got there with the police. They found my mom in bed unresponsive. My husband had to come get me and we all went to the hospital. At some point in the night my mom had a massive stroke, she was still alive when we found her but not conscious, they couldn’t do anything and was currently on a respirator. So My sister and I waited for her sisters and we said our goodbyes. It’s been a rough few months of accepting the fact she is gone when she was totally fine. Like she just had a physical and all came back good. We where shocked and now in the process of handling all her stuff, selling a house and just trying to make sense of all that has happened. She was going to Florida with my sister on the Friday she passed, her bag were packed! I have been struggling with finding focus and just gathering thoughts. Work has been busy so that is great, I can use the distraction but I miss her so much. She was my best friend, I spoke to her everyday at least twice if not more. It’s been hard. So COYER has taken a back seat for me but you can keep up on our discord and I am still designing so there is that. I know things will never be the same but when all is taken care of we can process what happened and live for her. Missing both my mom and dad, they are together again but it doesn’t make me miss them any less.

Hugs Michelle. I’m so sorry to hear this and can’t imagine what you and your family are going through. Loss is never easy and you’re so right that knowing they’re together doesn’t make you miss them any less. Take care of yourself.
Hugs, I am sorry for your loss
I am so sorry for your loss, that sounds so tough to lose her so suddenly and especially when she just had her physical and was doing well. Makes sense you have trouble focusing and doing things while dealing with all of that.
Oh, Michelle, I’m so sorry. I had seen the news on FB, but hadn’t realized how sudden and unexpected it was. I’m sure the shock, the unexpectedness of it, makes it harder in so many ways. Sending you warm hugs and mugs of tea and prayers for healing for you and your family.
I’m so very sorry for your loss.
I am so sorry for your loss! It’s the unexpected ones that hit hardest, IMO. And being that this was your mom and best friend it’s worse. My heart and sympathies are with you and your family!
I am sorry for your loss. It’s always hard to lose a parent but when it’s sudden and unexpected you don’t get the chance to say goodbye and that’s even harder. I am sending all the positive vibes your way.
I’m so very sorry for your upsetting loss. And I have a sense of what you’re going through because I lost my younger sister very suddenly and unexpectedly at the end of 2023. My heart goes out to you. Take care.x
I’m so sorry Michelle.
