This is one of the things I fear most, I've still got both my parents. The only person I've lost close to me was my grandmother, but she had been sick for a really long time and I was more relieved than anything.
Sorry to hear that man, Its been almost a year and I feel odd sometimes.

losing both grandfaters, my father, and a very close uncle in less that 2 years of each other, i can tell you to get everything out now, It will help alot, My dad was the worst as i was only 20 when it happened, after that the others followed closely. be strong man, and dont be ashamed or embarrased if you do break down, that is a very heavy thing to deal with. Im very sorry for your loss

Mike, as everyone hear has said "our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family". My God what a tragedy. God works in mysterious ways Mike and obviously he has plans for your mother that you, I nor anyone else can understand. We just have to have faith.
I know it doesn't seem fair and this is a huge loss. I can sympathize with your pain as I watched my wife lose her mother at a very young age as well. It's a difficult time for sure. Hang in there Mike, talk to your friends and family, a minister, preacher or whoever you feel comfortable with while your going through this difficult time.
Don't waste your time and energy trying to blame anyone, it was a horrible accident that know one could have predicted...
Take care and God Bless...

Thank yall very much. I am working on figuring out arrangements. Last night was more or less a shock.... I am good as long as friends don't call me... yet I want the calls...... they call.. I cry when they call, but it seems to help. My mother in law brought my kids over. My 4 yr old daughter doesnt seem to understand what I told her and my 7 yr old son seems okay for now. My wife is my anchor and has been a rock for me. I have spent all day in my bedroom and reading Tech etc seems to help take my mind off of things.
I appreciate the responses. If you are fighting with a loved one or on bad terms..... in memory of Thressa (T.C.) my mom... please tell someone you love them. My mom supported and put up with alot of **** from the other men in her life (aside from myself who learned to be like her in the work/responsibility/compassion traits) and I am sure some of them feel worse than I do about not saying goodbye.

I just got home from Parkland..... my wife is taking care of our foster puppies.... I needed something to take my mind off of what happened this evening.
I am so freaking pissed at my mom's husband for not making her wear a helmet on his harley.... she died tonight from trauma to the brain and I want to kill him... not that I will but I feel it is his fault.
How long does this grieving process take. This is ******* killing me! Have yall experienced this? What is next??
I can't sleep and reading has helped me stop crying for a few minutes. My mom was only 45 and a grandmother of 3 kids.
The only family I have left is my wife and kids and 2 brothers. My mom worked at the same company as me and I dont think I can talk to my friends from work w/o breaking down.....................
all I can say is..... please, if you love your family WEAR a GOD DAMN helmet and make them wear one!
