So I haven't been around the last few weeks. (Very sad news inside.) -- (edited)

My mother died very unexpectedly two weeks ago. She had had an aortic aneurysm for about 6 years now that the doctors were just watching. The risk of surgery is generally considered too great until it reaches a certain size. Her aneurysm had been stable for years.
Sunday morning two weeks ago she woke up with chest pains and asked my dad to call an ambulance. Once at the hospital they realized the aneurysm had started to tear and transferred her to a larger facility. They attempted to repair the damage, but in the end, the damage was too extensive and she did not make it through surgery.
My dad and I (and the rest of the family) have of course been devastated. My mom was one of my best friends that I knew I could always go to for help. My dad and I are too similar though and have not been close for years, but we are working on that. I know without question that he loves me and I love him, but it's been hard when the one person you want to talk to is the one that you can't.
Anyway, sorry to just drop in and drop this. I'm still just coping and have a lot of trouble talking about it to people. I thought maybe this would be a step to putting some thoughts in to words.
I haven't checked the BBs, so I hope everything is going well with everyone.
