Grief

The knock on the door came at about 2:30 this afternoon. Two officers from the local PD doing a notification for the County Sheriff in Nevada.

My mother passed at 4:16 local time while Lu and I were en route to the hospital. There's a lot to this story. I'm unsure, at this late hour, how much if any I am going to talk about. It is intensely painful and after many hours, way too many miles and a lifetime of tears and sorrow I am simply too wrung out to know my own mind.

I am so tired but will sleep come? I may be away for a while. Again.

May you finally rest in peace Ma.
