    hey man, i feel for you.
    when my mom died when i was twenty, the first thing i had composure to do was call my boss and tell him i might be late for work the next day.
    i wasn't grasping the weight of the situation.
    had i a computer then, i might have blogged it much like this. sometimes you just need to shout it to the world.
    sometimes it feels better to get things off your chest to impartial strangers..

    i don't know your age or your family situation but if you ever need to talk about how to handle things,
    how you are supposed to feel, what to do with yourself afterwards...etc...

    well, i can't tell you. because nothing ever prepared me for my loss.
    but if you ever just need to talk about it, get it out here, or PM any one of us.

    hang in there.

    I'm another latecomer to the thread. Don't have anything to add that hasn't already been said. My sympathies and prayers are with you too.
