Mama June, 44, made a video and shared it on Instagram saying fans can send gifts to Anna’s daughters from their Amazon wishlist.
Anna died after fighting a long battle with adrenal cancer on December 9.
Mama June captioned the new Instagram video: “The Amazon wish list is up if y’all would like to send something to the girls even if it is something as simple as sitting a card.
“My PO Box also is in my bio – we love and appreciate each and every one of y’all that have been messaging me and messaging everyone of the family even though we’re there not responding to everyone.”
In the comments section, several critics came to air out their opinions.
One critic told Mama June: “Using your daughter’s death as a cash grab is mad weird but go off I guess – don’t think anyone is surprised.”
Mama June retaliated stating: “How do you see that I am doing anything for myself?
“These are for the girls because thousands of people have asked us -there is thousands of messages coming in hourly and daily and instead of responding back one by one we made this wish list.

“You can either choose to do it or not [and] it’s not gonna make a f*** to us but we do appreciate people who are asking because honestly people love Anna and loved her kids very much.”
A second critic commented: “Looks like a lot of adult clothes, makeup… all the money you make off the show and flaunting your daughter who has passed begging for her kids – you act like nothing has happened in your life spewing nasty cuss words at people and [acting] just down right rude!
“Never in my life have I ever supported what you have put your family through [and] it’s disgusting.”
After explaining her logic behind the brand choices on the Amazon wishlist Mama June snapped back and posted: “No baby, if you are holding your breath waiting on that, baby, you were going to kill yourself because that isn’t even a thought in my vocabulary for those who are amazing people that love not just Anna but her girls and the rest of the family.
“We appreciate all the messages and all of the comments that are positive the rest of y’all, y’all will rot in inhale.”
‘GOING THROUGH A LOT’
In the same comment thread, a critic asked the star: “How are you not bawling right now?”
She replied: “Trust me, I’m right now more times than you will ever imagine on live every video I make doesn’t have to be meatball in or crying as you can tell I’m not myself right now as I’m going through a lot of s*** emotionally and mentally – I mean I just did lose my daughter a week ago.”
Another critic asked: “Are you not in mourning?”
Mama June shared: “I’m morning every day the last few days; it’s been super hard for me but 1000s of people have been asking so instead of answering one by one we just did a video.”
Yet a third critic stated: “A relapse is coming.”
Mama June has struggled with a history of substance abuse.
She retaliated: “Well, I can tell you if you or anyone else is waiting for that to happen, baby, you better stop holding your breath because I’m not even a thought in my mind to do that.”
Someone else backed the comment up by stating: “Please reach out, June, if you are struggling with the drugs again.”
Mama June snapped back: “Well, if you, or anyone else is holding the breath for me to relapse, then you better stop because you’re gonna die – this last thing that I’ll even think about they didn’t even thought in my memory.”
EMOTIONALLY SPENT
Last week Wednesday, Mama June posted another update on her grieving on TikTok.
She said: “Hey guys. We said our final goodbyes to Anna today and I am emotionally, mentally spent.
“We went over to Pumpkin’s house and did a release with close family and her girls.”
Mama June pointed to the camera: “But, I also wanted to share this video after I speak because it’s thanks to y’all that Cooper Alan actually made us a video.”
The family are big fans of the country singer and he dedicated a video to Anna Cardwell’s life despite being unable to attend the celebration.
Mama June revealed Anna will be cremated and that the family will keep a piece of her “every step [they] take in this life.”
She admitted: “That’s one thing Anna told us, she didn’t want to rot in the ground, she wanted us to carry her big chest around. And we are.
“We all got one or two things, which I think is amazing.
“But we want to say that we appreciate each and every single one of y’all for your thoughts, your prayers, your well wishes, the thoughts and prayers for her kids as it is going to be rough and rougher every day.
She concluded: “The pain does not get easier.”
