I am so sorry for your loss. Take the time you need to grieve and be comforted by memories. Be gentle with yourself.

My younger brother died ten years ago. He was 19 and I was 22. You'll get through it because you have to, not because you want to. I read some grief books/websites so I could understand my feelings, I wore pajamas to law school, I walked around in a daze, I leaned on good friends who were able to understand my moods. My family did things to honor his memory...a bench, a tree a small (very small) stipend in his name to be awarded at his highschool. I used this journal: http://www.amazon.com/Angel-Catcher-Journal-Loss-Remembrance/dp/0811817318

You will heal. It just takes time. Don't push yourself too hard and know that everything you are feeling is normal.

xoxo
