i’m 13 now (2020) but this happens in 2017 and 2019. so basically my parents got divorced when i was 2 and i have an older brother who’s 4 years older than me (17 currently) i lived with both my mom and my dad switching off every wednesday and weekend basically my mom got us for mon, tue, and half of wed and my dad got us for half of wed, thur, and most of friday and then they would switch off for weekends. in october of 2017 they had to switch the schedule around cause my dad had to work, so he has us mon, tué, etc and my mom has us thur, friday and so on. and one day i came home from school (5th grade) and i just logged onto my minecraft game when my grandparents on my moms side show up. this is a rare occurrence since they almost never come to my dads house. they told my and my brother that they had to tell us something. they sat us down on our couch and told us that my mom had passed away. my heart dropped and i couldn’t stop crying for weeks. i didn’t sleep for a good 48 hours after which definitely wasn’t healthy for a 10 year old. my mom was married to a woman and after my mom passed away, she basically treated us as her children and i thought of her as a strong mother figure in my life. in 2019 that changed. it was another day in october but in 2019 and i was12. my dad day is down again and told us that that mornings he had gotten into a car accident and she had passed away. my heart felt like it shattered into a million pieces. i had and still don’t have a mother figure in my life and i see all these things about how to appreciate your mom before it’s over and i never got to do that. i was so young and i didn’t understand anything that happened
