It Just Continues……….
Oh how the saga whining continues…… Again, if you are new here the back story can been seen here: Where’s Mom? Basically, the Cliff Notes version is: My Mom passed away on December 29, 2017, her cat Biscuit passed away 12 days later. The cat’s ashes arrived yesterday. Mom finally came home today (Tuesday), the day after Miss Kitty. Mom arrived via the USPS. Yup, the mailman delivered my Mom. I don’t know where this carrying, loving person was from The Trident Society was. They were to put Mom’s ashes in the urn. Just FYI, USPS does not offer this service. The mailman refused. Very politely, but he did refuse. Now, no where on the USPS box does it say open the box carefully, don’t use sharp objects to open……… because all that is protecting your pretty, mahogany box is a piece of packing TAPE!!Yup, scratched the box with the knife I used to open boxes with. Straight down the center and NICE and deep!! Yup. Yup. I can’t catch a break here! Seriously?! Is my Mom just screwin’ with me now?? Is she sitting in Heaven trying to make me lose my mind? Or just laugh?? But, wait…… I am not done!!…

Seriously?! Where Is Mom??
Whine alert. Where is MY MOM!?!? Death is a racket. It’s expensive. It’s heart-wrenching. It’s stressful and it sucks ass. My Mom has been gone for 3 weeks today. I was so impressed with our Hospice experience through Silverado. The folks there were 100% on their toes. Customer service was amazing. THOUGHTFUL and continual. I never felt alone. On the other hand, I am a million times unimpressed with The Trident Society. They are everything that Silverado is not. The Trident Society Several years ago The Husband and I were approached about cremation services. The Trident Society sent out a representative that made us feel this was the GOLD STANDARD!! The best company to use. We signed up. We also (on the sly) signed up my Mom. We felt great about our decision. The Trident Society will pick up the body anywhere in the world. They will handle everything!! They will make a stressful, sad time easier to bear. Everything will be done with the utmost care, respect and sympathy. Someone from the Trident Society will even hand deliver the ashes and place them in the urn for you. What would be better and more helpful than that!? In truth??…
