After reading through your post and the attached link .. you have been through a lot of tragedy at such a young age - more than anyone should ever have to experience.
There are no words at this time that can comfort you. My only hope is that you are able to surmount the pain, look ahead, and be successful in whatever you do in this life.
Go forward ..

I'm speechless....this is the kind of stuff that is in movies.
I honestly don't know what to say other than you seem to be doing well for all things considered. Stay strong, God will take care of things.

Honestly, everything will be OK. Everything seems completely overwhelming right now, but things have a way of working themselves out. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. It may take quite some time to figure out what that reason is, exactly, but you'll figure it out someday. I lost my father when I was one (he was about 30), my step-dad when I was 17 (he was 36) and my mother when I was 29 (she was 52). I have two younger sisters that were 19 and 20 when mom died.
I understand almost everything you're going through. Dealing with the house, cars, bills, an estate, not to mention the loss of a parent....it's all very tough and will take time to deal with it all. You WILL get through it and you'll turn out to be a better man for it. I know, it sounds stupid, but it's true.
Do yourself a favor and talk to someone, quickly. It's been almost four years since I lost parent #3 and I'm just now starting to talk to someone. I wish I would have done this sooner, because it really does help.
Take care of yourself.

Also its crazy to hear that alot of you have the same kind of situations. More information will be released tomorrow from the Police. oh and By the way, Has anybody ever watched CSI?... they brought the state CSI team in for this one, instead of just a local investiagtion team. but on a scale from 1-10 on how professional they are.. i give them a 4, my house was RIPPED apart and stuff was disrespeced and thrown everywhere. (its nothing like tv where they are very articulate)
once again, thank you everybody

My heart goes out to you and the rest of your family for this tragic and untimely loss of yours. I will petition to and pray the Lord Jesus brings you comfort and solid legs to stand on while you are going through this trial and that justice will be swift upon the perpetrator(sp?). You dont know me but regardless of that I am always reachable via PM or AIM should you need someone to talk with when you are feeling down; my name is George. God bless brother.

thanks george.
Also the CSI team has taken all of my computers to scan through every file looking for a link to the crime. such as an unpaid debt or anything like that. So i will be staying at a family friends house. i am in need of a nice wireless laptop to stay connected to everybody because i am leaving my uncles house (where i am right now) and the place i will be going has a SLOW dialup connection. i planned on getting a wireless laptop anyway so this works out fine. does anybody have any recommendations??? price is somewhat an issue cause i need to watch my expenses, but me being 18... i need internet AIM etc.. im not looking at Ebay. im looking to buy it from a store. i will have cash in a week so i dont want to be waiting an extra 5 BD on shipping. thanks in advance for the help!

If you dont need everyting, best bang for buck is going to be one of the retail stores, like Best Buy or CompUSA. Frankly, if you just want it for online activities, save the money by not getting all the happy crazy crap. Dont need theater sound and stuff. Just my opinion though.

Well the computer technology, no matter who you go with, is out of date within a year. Just a fact. I have an older Dell that I still use on business trips just for mail/internet/etc. Its not top of the line but I have had it for a few years now. Battery still holds charge, and does what I need it to do. Compaq makes a decent laptop. My brother got one for the same purpose (Active Air Force), and he paid like 500-700 for it, and its going on 3-4 years old now, and he still uses it.

My condolences to you. Having lost my mother prematurely a couple of years ago, I know what you must be going through. The pain will lessen with time...
