Mama June Shannon is on an emotional rollercoaster after her daughter Anna "Chickadee" Cardwell tragically died following nearly year-long battle with cancer.
The reality star admitted her mind is "so emotionally and mentally mindf----- right now," in a heartfelt TikTok shared on Monday, December 11.
Anna Cardwell passed away at 29 years old after her battle with cancer.
"It’s so quiet in here, the machines aren’t running, [Anna’s] not sitting in here watching cooking shows, and it’s just so quiet," she said. "The chair that she was in, nobody is sitting in it right now because it has a blanket and a pillow that she used, and that’s where she passed away at."
Mama June also revealed that her daughter's memorial service would be taking place on Wednesday, December 13.
Mama June opened up on the emotions she was feeling after her daughter's death.
"At [the] White Columns funeral home in Gordon, Georgia, we are allowing y’all to come from 2 to 3 o’clock for visitation," she told her followers who may want to pay their respects to the late 29-year-old who occasionally appeared on Mama June: From Not to Hot.
"At 3 o’clock, her service will happen," she added. "It will be a short but amazing service."
