My mom passed away this morning. I have never had a day that didn't have her in it. I am numb and sad and fine and scared and confident she would find some amusement (the dark kind) in the fact that she died from a mystery ailment and not the fucking coronavirus.

There will be no services. If you want to honor my mom, find something you're not using anymore, and give it to someone who needs/wants it. That was her way, and she would get a kick out of that.

Oh, Serene, I'm so sorry.

I am hunting objects right now to give to somebody who actually wants them.

Oh my sweet friend, I am so sorry.

I will honour your mom by doing that. I'm not very good at letting go of things, but I will think of you and her when I do it.

I'm so sorry. I can't even imagine. Take care of yourself, and if you can't, try to let others take care of you for a bit. You're in my thoughts.

Oh oh oh. *hugs*

I'm sorry for your loss, and glad your mom would be chuffed with bucking the current disease trend. Let me know if getting some food or a veggie box or something delivered would be helpful; I'd be glad to foot the bill.

*some more hugs*

I'm so sorry. May you be comforted.

If you ever need to talk, Chris and I have both been through that pain.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Solidarity for honoring those who've passed in ways other than holding funeral services.

I will think of your mom the next time I give something away to someone who needs it, which is something I do a lot, at least during times when I get face-to-face with actual people at all.
