I dont know what to do with myself.

She didnt go alone though. I kept my promise and I was talking to her when she passed.

give yourself any time you need and then start calling immediate family members. After that then you can take another break before proceeding or enlist the help of another family member.

I am not sure what the best thing to do in your situation is. Maybe you could give yourself a little more time, and then call a close relative to help you?

My mom died almost 5 years ago, and I ended up actually only calling 3 or 4 family members. I asked them to handle calling the majority of the rest, which they did. IMO, you shouldnt stress yourself with calling everyone, let other family take that 'burden' off of you.

I went through the same exact situation by myself three years ago. I'd call immediate family as soon as you feel you're able. They'd like to know.
