I am sorry to hear about the loss. *hugs*
I wonder if some of us might be able to get together some funds for you to be able to go to the funeral? I don't know how to do that sort of thing over the internet but maybe someone else can shed some light for that?

Although I did not post when you said he was in hospital I have had Cody in my prayers and now you are in my prayers also. It is such a sad time when a young person dies. My condolences to you and the family. I am a pm away.

-wipes her eyes and hugs everyone-
Thank you, Tori.. your gift means the world to me right now.
Storm, I truly appreciate your concern. As I'm typing this, my best friend is at his viewing halfway across the world and I'm stuck here. Cody donated his body to science, so the only services he gets is today. I literally had two to three days to come up with a thousand dollars to fly home, and I just can't. My friend texts me and says "at least you're not here.. this is so hard", but I'd rather be there than stuck at home. It isn't right for me not to be there, even though Goth gave me a very good suggestion, it's not closure to me. It's harder to be away.
I hate dealing with these feelings.. this sadness, depression, emotion.. I thought I'd wake up today knowing that Cody's been at peace for several days, but I'm still having a very hard time with this. Once my boyfriend left for work and I jumped online, it's like this loop starts all over again.
I'm trying not to shut everyone out and just curl up somewhere and hide away like I desperately want to. I keep telling myself that if I run from the truth that maybe it will change. That's very naive of me.. I know that's not how it works but this is so unfair.

That's very naive of me.. I know that's not how it works but this is so unfair. Wow, flying sure has become expensive these days. My couple of hundred would have just been a p*ss in the wind. Take comfort in knowing that his body is going to a good cause to help people from that happening to them. I'm doing the same thing if something should ever happen to me and I am also an organ donor. It does hurt alot right now, and just let yourself grieve. Don't keep it in even the anger part. I'm living proof of how that can make a person very ill over time. Even if you need to go chop some wood or bust up bricks or what ever, go for it. You more than deserve it. (((warm tender hugs)))

I'd like to thank you all again for your continued support, and I wish I could say that things are better and I'm here in a better light today, but that's just not the case.. Cody passed away on Tuesday. I'm emotionally lost and shattered.. I'll never see my cousin again. This isn't fair. He was just a kid. RIP Cody.. You'll always hold your place in my heart, and you're very missed by all of us. I'm so sorry. RIP Cody

What a nice gift Cody has left for other diabetics. He definitely had a good soul. Do you think if you bought a nice book of some kind and sent it to family they would leave a message in there? Their thoughts their memories of Cody and then sent it back to you. Would it maybe help you a little? Is there some small thing of his that his family might give you? His handwriting, anything?
The book could be passed around. Someone say something, and send it on to another family member so far away, until there were several messages or remembrances of him?

thank you, TNIT, Stickboy.. -huggles-
As you can imagine, I'm still having a very hard time with this, but not having the closure I needed by being at his viewing yesterday, I feel more numb inside than anything else. Today is the first day all week that I haven't woke up and just cried, and it's not a good feeling. It's just a front. On the outside to everyone else it's just a smile and an "i'm okay", but on the inside I'm crying and ripping things apart.
I'm trying to be strong and pull through this.
