Thanks, Miss Moar. You're sweet.

Yeah...not much was said about it today with my family, more time spent on what "is" as far as enjoying my nieces. Mostly I'm worried about my aunt/uncle's family. Then I think about her and I am in such dire straits...asking why, it's all so very surreal right now. It's just a damn freaking shame.

Thanks for your kind words. I have never had to ask the hard questions before: all my personal losses have been the elderly among us. This doesn't make sense.

I don't know what's going on. They lived in FL, mom knows nothing, no one will talk to me...I'm completely lost. Is the husband a suspect? I don't know. Are the kids with him? I don't know. Does he have family? I don't know. Are my aunt and uncle OK? I don't know.

I don't know anything.

Ask Shawnee - and if you get some answers please share. There are others looking for those same answers.

My family wouldn't talk about it yesterday. I emailed mom to day and she replied with a "know nothing will let you know" just like that. No, let's not freaking talk about it.

I am completely alone here. I have no one to ask.

I'm sorry I think I am losing it.

Losing "it" is normal when things are this upside down.

I don't know if it's upsetting, or not, but we are eligable to apply for citizenship this year (August, but you can apply several months in advance), but I have just confirmed that it will cost $675 each (total $2,700 + any legal/mailing costs), so I guess we don't really need to make a decision about if we're ready/want to....

I can get you U.S. citizenship wholesale. Why pay more?
