I generally try to keep things light on here, but I am currently dealing with the worst personal tragedy I’ve ever faced and really need to get this out.


Yesterday, my mother suffered a serious cardiac episode, and while they were able to restart her heart, she currently has no brain activity. Barring any changes, she will remain on life support for the next 72 hours.


Any thoughts, well-wishes, or prayers anyone has to offer are very much appreciated.

@TheCard Praying for her and you and your family. 💕

@danialexis Thank you so much. I don’t know if I’m strong enough to weather this, and I truly appreciate the prayers and kind words.

@TheCard No one is strong enough to weather grief all at once. You'll do it one day, sometimes one minute, at a time.

The kindest thing you can do for yourself right now is to listen to your feelings. When you need to cry, do it. When you need to tap out, do it. When you need to sit down for "just a minute" and somehow it's two hours, do it.

The size of your grief is the size of your love.

@danialexis Thank you so much. These words mean more than you know.
