Hi Mike,
My mom died 20 years ago. It hurt big time because she suffered for months. My dad died last November. It was much quicker, but the impact of his no longer being around hit me even harder. I'm still dealing with it.
You get used to your parents being there from the moment that you realize they are your parents and they are there to help you grow and learn. Somehow, you expect them to always be there, because they always were before.....
You and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Take good care my friend, and be strong for the rest of your family.
Bob
