Georgia boy, 11, is forced to stand next to railroad tracks with heartbreakingly humiliating sign after his mother's sudden death

An 11-year-old Georgia boy resorted to holding up a tear-jerking sign to raise money to bury his mom. 

Shannon Mount, 45, went into cardiac arrest on July 8 and was put on life support until she died on July 18, reported WSBTV.

Her son Kayden Ely, 11, was forced to stand beside the railroad tracks of their small town in Lindale for two days to raise money for her funeral.

The tween wore a black t-shirt, green shorts and white slides while he held a sign that read 'Please help bury my Mama!'

'Shannon did not have life insurance, she has an 11-year-old that is left without the only thing he ever knew,' said a GoFundMe page set up in her honor.

Mount's boyfriend, Billy Upton, performed CPR until paramedics arrived and they were able to shock her back to life. She was on life support until she coded a week later.

Her friends and family are working to raise money to cover her funeral expenses. They have sold hot dogs and drinks on the side of the road and left jars around town to collect donations. 

Journalist Kaitlyn Ross with 11Alive reported that someone has donated a burial plot and people called the funeral home to cover all of her expenses.

Their GoFundMe page has raised $12,880 exceeding their $7,100 goal and said any additional funds will go towards Kayden's future needs.

Mount was described as a loving woman who cared deeply for friends, family and strangers alike.

'She never met a stranger and tried to help everyone she could, even when she was wandering, never really settling down. A drifter by nature, she felt at home everywhere and nowhere,' her obituary said.

'Shannon was a straight shooter. She didn’t sugarcoat anything and was always ready to tell you off if you needed it. She loved her kids fiercely, even when life got messy. 

'She wouldn’t want anyone to dress up her life to be what it wasn’t. She was raw, real, and unapologetic. 

'She wasn’t a perfect mother or housewife, but she tried her best. Shannon was a rambler, a soul always searching, and she lived her truth, no matter how rough the edges were.'

Mount's funeral is schedule for July 27 at the Good Shepherd Funeral Home chapel.
