A Parent's Worst Nightmare - Kayla's Funeral

Donation protected
Thank you to anyone who stopped to read this post!!!
These last 2 months have been the absolute worst time of my life I had planned on going to church on Sunday September 11th & I woke up in time to go but for some reason I decided not to go which was odd because it was one of the days where they were having a fun family event afterwards & my two younger boys were looking forward to it. So usually in that case I would have went back to sleep for a little while but I couldn't fall asleep. It was about 30 minutes later when I got the phone call that made A Mother's Worst Nightmare my reality. "Kayla's dead" is what she said. I could not believe what I was hearing, my stomach dropped, my heart was racing, I felt like the wind was knocked right out of me, I was nauseous, I was getting hot & sweaty, my heart was literally breaking & I was filled with this overwhelming feeling of sadness & depression & guilt & fear & anger & shock & probably many more emotions. I could not believe that my 19yr old daughter who I had just seen the day before was actually dead Kayla was my 2nd born beautiful baby girl & she was always a Mamas Girl. Not even 2 months before this on July 15th my 35yr old younger brother died unexpectedly & I thought that was hard but let me tell you nothing compares to losing a child & I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. My mother was not financially stable so we had to come together as a family & pay for my brother's funeral which was hard on me because my financial situation is not the greatest ever since covid. I have 9 & 12-year-old boys that both have several mental & medical health problems & we're fighting for Social Security for my youngest one so money is always tight lately & and we were still trying to recuperate emotionally & financially from the loss of my brother when my daughter had passed away. So I had to swallow my pride & make a GoFundMe to ask for help & I do not like asking for help but my baby girl deserved a proper service. She was one of a kind, she had the biggest heart & a beautiful smile that could light up the room, she was one in a million. She loved everyone, I mean seriously she never met a stranger she could walk up to anyone, start a conversation & you would think she knew them her whole life. She was always the life of the party & a peacemaker. She loved animals & she was crazy about her little brothers and nephews & she looked up to her older sister. She was an amazing friend even to the ones who didn't deserve her friendship, she was always there when you needed her whether she knew you or not. I remember back in elementary school she was getting bullied a little bit & I was so mad at these little kids & I would tell her something & she would say "oh no Mom it's okay we're going to be friends soon" She could literally change the moods & attitudes of a room full of people for the better just with her personality & the 1st time I witnessed this she was about 8 yrs old. Her memory & spirit will live on through the many people who knew & loved her. I truly believe that her purpose here on this Earth even though it was cut way too short was to leave an everlasting impression on every person she ever met because that's what she did..... We Love & Miss you so much Kayla
