Empty and Numb

This past week has been an emotional roller coaster and I HATE roller coasters! Last Saturday my mom went into cardiac arrest outside of her apartment building, she was found by a neighbor who called 911. They originally took her to Alta View Hospital but then life flighted her to Intermountain Medical Center. They placed her in a drug induced coma and on life support while conducting many many tests to determine how much damage occurred to her brain. Nathan and I drove as fast as we legally could down to Salt Lake to be with her and my family. We prayed as much as we could but she was not ment to be with us. Our family terminated life support on thursday because there was nothing else the doctors could do and she wasn't going to ever recover. She was only 48. She was my best friend and I miss her more than anything, these last few years we've become exceptionally close. I just can't picture her gone, the fact that she'll never call me again or send Nathan and I candy corn randomly throughout october with funny cards. This has been the hardest week of my life-I'm really struggling with the fact that she is gone, it happened so fast and so unexpectedly. Always hold close to your family, you never know when they will be taken from you. I do not wish this pain on anyone-
