My mother just passed away a month after intestinal surgery

I (F34) just found out today that my mother (F75) passed on this morning. She was already frail and underweight and she just had a successful intestinal surgery to remove a tumor last month! I had the impression that whilst she was still in a weaker physical state that she was recovering well from the surgery! But she also had heart failure and I think she got inconsistent in taking her meds after getting out of the hospital. I still don’t know the full picture but she was planning to go to the doctor because she got tired very easily. She was also sleepy a lot! I don’t know what to do in many ways! I had a toxic relationship with my alcoholic, emotionally abusive father, and my mother was the closest thing I had to a proper parent! And now she is gone!!
