Go rest high on that mountain, sis. I love you.

Thank you everyone it's been very hard that last few days. My sister did not have life insurance. So we are having to raise funds for her burial. A relative stepped in and offered their plot. Another relative gave a down payment so they could go get her body from the hospital and start the process. The Funeral is Thursday. We have relatives coming out of state and even another country. I started a GoFundMe and a local burial fund for my sister the money is slowly coming in. The funeral home cut us a break so it's 5100 total for everything which I'm told is a really good deal.

It's been very difficult mostly because my hubby is having a hard time dealing with my sister's passing. He's gone from Depressive to Hypomanic to a mix in-between. It's the worst I've seen. You think it was his sister. Yes I know it's due to the condition he's struggling with but it's added stress I don't need when trying to plan a funeral, make sure mom's okay and he's in bed not able to function or acting out at me then he feels guilty and wants to be consoled. Right now we just had another talk about my sister's passing and he's quiet. I'm trying to keep one foot in front of the other. I'll have time to process all that's happened after my sister is laid to rest. I'll probably need to talk to someone professional about her passing because it was not peaceable and I'm having a hard time dealing with it. Right now I'm blocking it. There will be plenty time later to work through it.

I know that times like these are stressful first hand and my mom had some insurance that covered things for her final expenses. Add in your husband's reactions and I'm sure it must be overwhelming at times. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Blossom · 05-14-2018, 02:31 PM

Thank you. The funeral was Thursday and on Friday mom fell and is in the hospital. I'm working with hospital social services to get mom into a skilled nursing facility for rehabilitation then permanent residency.

Hubby has been amazing. He snapped out of it and has been absolutely amazing with support with my mom and with everything.

No time to mourn yet. I got to get mom situated and currently looking for a place for my sister's dogs ASAP. There's no one to take care of them.

On top of that my pinky toe injury from 2012 has flared up from being on my feet so much. So I'm on crutches. I've been at the hospital the last three days. Today is the first day I've had to do phone calls at home.
