I am sure after I talk to the police, the medical examiner, go through his things, see the puppies and all that other associated stuff I will probably not seem so strong. The lead detective on the case said he has been bombarded with phone calls and was amazed at the overwhelming number of friends that kid had.

We don't really know each other, but if I might be so bold...I would not expect you should be handling something like this very well. Things like this are not supposed to happen.
We don't have children, so I will not have the pleasure of experiencing them, or the experience of grief of losing one of them. The closest I have is a much younger first cousin who took his own life with a handgun 5 years ago. I was 23 years his senior and in many ways he was probably as close as the blonde and I will get to having one of our own. He didn't leave a note, so we won't ever really understand what happened. There are times where I'm still not handling it very well.
