Hello. I've never really written anything here before, or replied to very many threads, but I am a long time reader. I know you ladies, and gentlemen, are always sweet enough to send out your thoughts and prayers to someone who really needs them. I'm asking if you could please send your thoughts and prayers to my family now. This morning, we got the news that my uncle passed away. He had been working on my aunt's jeep when it suddenly fell on him and killed him instantly. I just can't believe this is happening, especially before Christmas. December has always been a hard month for my family, because we have had several family members pass away in December, starting with my Grandmother. She passed away from breast cancer, two years before I was born. My mother never got over her death, and everytime December comes, my mom sinks into a deep depression. Then my aunt passed away in 2003 from an infection that she got from the hospital where she was receiving cancer treatment. Then the following year, my uncle committed suicide on the first anniversary of my aunt's death. We are just devastated and in shock. My mom keeps saying that this is all a bad dream, and that she is going to wake up. I'm scared that she is thinking about suicide. She has already said today that she doesn't want to live anymore. She was extremely close to her brother. I just don't know what to do. I'm trying to be strong for my mom, but I know that this is going to push her over the edge. To make matters worse, my aunt wants to have the rosary tonight, and bury him tomorrow. That is just too soon. Most of our family lives out of town and will not be able to make it in until tomorrow. The reason why my aunt is in a hurry, is because her father is dying in a hospital and she needs to be by his side. A part of me is mad at God for letting this happen. We have had such a bad couple of years, and I can't understand why he hates us so much that he would let so many bad things happen, but the other part of me knows that I should not be mad at God. My uncle had beaten cancer just last year, and now this happened. He had also just lost his job last week, when the company he was working for shut down. Thank you for letting me get all my feelings out. I really have no one to talk to, and usually my mom is the only one I can talk to, but the last thing she needs is for me to be burdening her with my own depression.I apologize for any misspellings, or if I come off as incoherent in parts of my post. I'm just heartbroken.
