Sorry I haven't been around lately. As you know, I mentioned in my last post my mom was recently diagnosed with cancer. She was really improving but unfortunately, she unexpectedly passed away last week. I'm feeling very lost right now, and just well...I don't really know. I never thought I'd lose my mom when I am only 24 years old. I'm still in a state of disbelief really.
My husband Chris and I are with my dad here in Chicago and will be returning to Virginia tomorrow. Wrigley and Cobalt are with a pet sitter for the time being so I hope they are okay. Hopefully I'll regain some sort of normalcy once we return and I can get back into the habit of posting regularly.
My aunt wrote a really nice post on her blog today about my mom, which can be found here.

I stopped by to check on you and see how you are doing, but I can see by your lack of posts that you are probably not doing well. I lost my mother 2 years ago next month, and even thought I'm older than you, it was still hard. Everyone's grief is different, so don't worry about posting until you are ready, but know there are other bloggers who care.
{{{{hugs}}}}

Heartfelt condolensces about your mother. That's very young for a bean to loose her mom. Our female's father recently passed away, so I have a sense of what you and your kitties and family are going through.
We are so sorry to hear these bad news, our hearts and purrs are with you. Yes, this is too young to lose a mother, and to young for your mother to pass away. Our thoughts and purrs are with you in these hard times.

we are just checking in on you. puuuuuuurrrrrrrrssssssss
Hi Stephanie. I have been praying for you. I know it has been hard. Just know that you have been on my mind.
You are loved.

This happened to my sister too. She left a daughter in her early twenties. My sister's husband died a few years before that very suddenly, so there were no parents left for my niece.
It will take you a while to get over the shock. I still feel angry that my sister had to die before living the rest of her life, but that isn't rational. I can't help feeling it though.
We hope you are all doing better ~ sending you all many many purrs and hugs..
I hope we see you posting again, we miss you Wrigley and Cobalt. Hope your mummy is coping a bit better.
