I’m only 22. And I just lost my mom to cancer only yesterday. Me and my two brothers weren’t ready for any of this, for us to say goodbye to her one last time.

She’s been battling this dragon for months now, with the rest of my family having to try and survive without her. Her birthday was back in January, the start of the new year, and I made sure to send a message fully believing she can beat this thing. Other and friends were there. But my dad wasn’t. Not because he didn’t want to, but because he had a seizure in the hospital partly due to the constant twelve packs of beer he gets twice a day every day since this started. He wasn’t able to offer a proper goodbye.

I and my brothers wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for her. Currently we’re just going through the process as a lot of folks are doing prayers since we’re involved in Buddhism. I’ve only had a limited experience with cancer. I had been finding comfort talking to my dear friends online but I feel so hollow still.
