by Daphnie

We are here to share another TIFU post that was written on the Reddit page. We love to go over these posts because it's always interesting to see what people have to say and what the comments have to say about the situation too.

This story is a bit sad in the beginning, and honestly, as it goes on, we can tell that OP definitely had a rough time when it came to her mother's inheritance and going through the process of going through her stuff. She came to Reddit to get some advice on her situation and kind of just get it out in the open.

She had a lot to say and explained her situation to everyone in vulnerable state. We wanted to share this story for those of you going through something similar or those of you who might just want a story to read and invest your time in today.

She explains in detail how she ended up flooding the home and destroying some of her mom's things. Ultimately this situation really sucks all around, so keeping her in your thoughts is necessary as you read through this story.

Although she was a hoarder, even she knew that things weren't the whole part of life, but her family. OP should keep that in mind for sure.

This situation is more of a sad one but we thought that was even more reason to cover it so heavily. We really hope that OP found some grace and got the support she needed to deal with both the loss and also the housing issues.

We hope anyone going through anything similar reads through some of these comments.
