Mom,
I know I wasn't the easiest to deal with sometimes. I know we had our moments where we would argue and be mad at each other. But at the end of the day we took care of each other. No matter what. You helped me get to a point where problems I've been dealing with, have improved. You helped me when I needed it most even if I didn't want to admit it.
When they took you away in the ambulance I had such a bad feeling you were not going to come home. When I first heard you tested positive for SARS-COV-2 (coronavirus), I had a bad feeling you were not going to make it. I regret not coming to see you more than anything in the world. I thought I had more time because you were getting better at first. I'm so sorry, mom. I would have come up to the hospital had I known.
I guess the important part is that you are not suffering anymore, wherever you are now. Thank you for loving me, supporting me, and trying to be there for me when I needed it. Thank you for shaping me into the woman I am today. Thank you for not giving up on me. It means the world. I promise I will make it so your support and efforts were not in vein.
Rest in peace, mom. You're free now. I miss you. I love you so much.♥️
