I got a call from my mom a few days ago, that shocked me, that aunty Angela have passed away.
A week before that, my mom was with her, going out to Restaurants and spending time together.
She was like a second grandmother to me, the fact that she passed away so suddenly, made me realise that we should never take anything for granted.
She was our day mother growing up, she helped with both me and my sisters weddings. She always supported and helped my mom whenever she could.
My heart just aches, it still feels unreal to me. I don’t really know what to say to my mom, cause it’s so unexpected and sudden. To support my mom and be there for her.
I wish she could meet our children, but now she is a guardian angel in heaven looking over all of us.
