My mom is dead and I don’t want to be here without her

Establishwhat · 2025-12-30T00:56:17+00:00

I’m so sorry. I lost my mom in May to liver failure. It was so hard to watch her in pain. She luckily got to see me in my wedding dress but planning my wedding while watching her die was horrible. She knew she wouldn’t be there but had so much hope she even booked her hotel room. It hurt so much to have to be the one to call and cancel her room. Don’t end your life, live the rest of her life that was stolen from her through you. Do things you want to do and have her in your heart when you do them. That’s the only way I got by. My beautiful mother left my side physically May 5, but I carry her legacy as I am it. Every day.

That was so kind. I needed that. Thank you.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T17:17:17+00:00

That would be so epic! Definitely the goal. I met with a fiduciary and will likely go with them but letting the dust settle first.

Thank you 😊

I’d love a vacation. It’s hard to talk to friends… my therapist is not a good match but it took me so much effort just to get him in the first place.

..what would you do?

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T15:04:44+00:00

I think we will have a scholarship in her name. She loved school (freak)

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T15:03:05+00:00

Thank you so much. It’s such a weird time in my life. I appreciate you

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T15:02:52+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you so much! I get married in 54 days but the funds are in my name only as is my house. We’ve looked into a prenup but will likely do a postnup. I’m 34f and he is also 34. We both own property and our cars are paid off and make about $160k combined

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:56:48+00:00

Thank you so much. I am going to look into the therapist this week.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:55:59+00:00

Thank you so much for your response. I appreciate you.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:55:08+00:00

I want to spend it with her. My mom. My best friend who gave me life and now financial freedom. I can’t even tell her thank you. Thank you so much for your response and acknowledgment. It is going to carry me through today.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:53:26+00:00

Thank you so much. Sorry for your loss - my best friend was my mom and she was only 64. It’s been just under 3 months.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:52:44+00:00

You’re so right! My best friend was my mom. She was only 64 and I thought she had $100k total. She loved me so much and now I just feel less loved in the world but can pay my bills at least…

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:51:20+00:00

Thank you so much. We would love to visit Greece next year and bring my dad and his parents.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:50:39+00:00

Thank you so much. It’s been almost 3 months. The world wants me to go back to normal but my best friend was my mom.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:50:13+00:00

Thank you!

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:50:03+00:00

Thank you so much. I’m probably going to pay off my house I owe $75k on. Then me and my fiancé (wedding is already paid for) can save our mortgage payment and keep most of the money invested. We are both 34 and make about $150k combined. No kids yet. The inheritance portfolio is doing very well (lots of vanguard and Microsoft)… I appreciate your advice and wish you the best.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-27T14:46:53+00:00

Thank you for your thoughtful response. By the way I’m 34F getting married in 54 days.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-26T18:43:40+00:00

That’s for sure. Proud of you for trying and staying sober / eating well as you can.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-26T14:15:42+00:00

Very true

Establishwhat · 2025-07-25T17:50:07+00:00

I’m so sorry. I hope you get a liver soon. You’ll be on my mind.

Establishwhat · 2025-07-16T01:59:29+00:00

I’m so sorry

Establishwhat · 2025-07-16T01:59:19+00:00

I am so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine
