Davek - my thoughts and prayers are with you, I remember that empty feeling from when I lost my mother. When people would tell me "it'll be alright, you'll get over it", I'd get mad because I didn't want to get over it, how could it ever be alright after loosing a loved one? Now, I remember the good times and tell mom & dad I love 'em everyday, and always will. In time life will make sense again. In the mean time I'm glad you're here on HRW checking out what folks are up to and following along. Familiar things can be a blessing.
