Pat,

My condolences. I went through the same thing in March. My uncle (44) died unexpectedly, though he had a history of liver issues, no one was expecting it to shutdown one day.

He was the model of health otherwise, a successful Chiropractor, with 4 children 10-18.

I don't know how old you are (I am 28), but one of the most important things has been making sure my cousins are OK. They are taking it extremely hard. I've tried to reach out to them to hang out, or do random things without trying to make it seem so forced.

Its really tough... My condolences.
