My father is dead.

Nick, I am really, really sorry to hear this. I know this is just a message over the Internet, and nothing I say can help anywhere near as much as I'd like it to, but just remember that you have my sympathies.

Please don't worry about not being able to cry. Feeling numb after a traumatic incident is normal. If you do feel you need to cry later, don't be afraid to.

-hugs- Stay strong.

What's the point in giving up when you know you'll never stop anyway?

All over WSAZ and WCHS. Think other family members talked. I feel so ashamed...

Don't be. Your father had problems many (hell, most) people have never had.

Holy fucking shit.

I'll be praying for you, too, Tendo...

Good luck. Stay strong. I know you will... *hugs*

He's been with me through everything...he won't even get to see me get married...I want him back so much. WSAZ just ran the story with my statement. They really just stressed that he was depressed and...I'm just very happy with how they handled it. I wish I had my computer. I need to talk to people...

Do you feel prepared to live and succeed as an adult, ten?

Then he ultimately did his most important job. Some dads never do that in the best of situations.

I know I still have trouble in that regard.

I just feel I need to get this off my chest. You remember when I said you weren't internally strong because you seemed to a perpetually angry kid who kept snapping at people who didn't seem to provide the support you wanted? I was wrong, in fact I couldn't be happier I was wrong. I know mere words may not be much comfort, but for what it's worth I think you are very strong to be able to get through this, and I want you to know you have my utmost respect.

Jesus Christ, Tendo! I mean, I know it's a tragedy when (nearly) anyone dies, but why did it have to be your super-cool dad?!

Hey, let's not wish death upon other people.

@tendo - It's good that you know what to do with your life now.

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.

Good lord, Nick, what's gonna happen now? Your father's dead, you most likely will be going back to your mother (assuming that hasn't happened yet, and if it's happening at all), and...well, that's awful, man.

Just went through some stuff. He was an honor student. Found his letterman badge. He kept so much stuff. I'm happy because...now I have so much to remember him by.

I can't say I know you Nick, or about your prior situation, but I'll put you in my prayers to the gods. This is just...horrible.

Keep the strength, man - you can make it.

God I miss him. I hate he is on every west Virginia news station and site. But oh well. I'm watching glee. He was looking forward for this weeks episode.

is there something I can do to help?

I'm kind of the same way with the show Supernatural, since my father and I used to watch that together.

Come to think of it, my dad also watched Glee. Kind of uncharacteristic for him.

I hope you can get through this tendo. You seem like a very strong person. sad If there's anything I can do to help just tell me.

He CAN get through this. -_- the only question is how long and how deeply it'll affect him... so far things are still at the shock stage. Hopefully everything will go alright from here.
