my mom's house burnt down tonight. I am at a loss and could really use the support
my mom's house is gone. she was up in vermont (we live in nh) visiting relatives and for some reason not yet known her house caught on fire. no one was home at the time which is a blessing but everything is gone. her 3 dogs, my cat and her cat and her amazon parrot. all gone. all of our memories from a life time there are gone. pictures of all my grandparents who have passed and can't be replaced are gone. photo albums,, baby pictures everything. all of my nephews toys (my brother lived there with them) gone. I am in shock. I am trying hard not to stress out as I am having a baby any day now but its hard. please everyone I really need your support. thank you.

Thank you so much for the support. my mom was just here crying and I didn't even know what to say to her. When I am upset I don't cry I just kinda hide whatever is going on inside of me until I can process it later.. if that makes sense. I have had people get mad at me before for not grieving outwardly. They are going back up to vermont with my brother (who was at work when this happened) to go get my nephews (they stayed up there with my uncle while my mom, dad and aunt rushed down here so they didn't have to see what was going on) and somehow tell a 5 year old and a 4 year old that the only place they know for safety and security, their pets and their things are all gone. I don't know how I am supposed to grieve right now. I am at a loss. Should I still be happy about having a baby soon when so much was lost so quickly?
@Excitedforoctober thats the part that is killing me. I cant sleep because when i close my eyes all i can picture is them and how scared they must have been...
