Holding it together

My aunt passed away recently, first it was an aneurysm then the strokes. In the end, the strokes took her. After a 13 hr craniotomy, and months later trying to find her way out of the coma she let go. My mom is mentally and emotionally in pieces (my aunt was the baby sister), my cousin no longer has any living parents and the only other mother figure that I can truly be myself with is gone. Just got done with my grandmother two years ago, my uncle 5 years ago, and now my aunt. Don't know how much longer I can hold it together. Don't think i can stand to go through another loss again anytime soon. If it happens, think I'll break down and fall into pessimism.
