Your family is different, not ruined. Your son is healthy, right? You have a good relationship with him? You are his family and will always be. The perfect family you thought you had in December was false. Would you rather have a false perfect family?

It really suxx to have your dreams dashed, but life will go on and you will heal.

For now, get through your dad's funeral and go easy on yourself about everything else. There's time for that. (((hugs)))
