Yes, AC I understand. I lost my dad 8/8/91 then my only sibling Richie 11/22/95, then my only child/son Joe (a drunk driver in an SUV hit him), then my mother 11/19/12. My immediate family is all together and I'm left without them. I have some cousins but they have their own family. And my brother's children, well that's another story. I just finished hugging my husband and told him that if I didn't have him I'd have nobody. It's the pits when both parents are no longer here. I have friends and relatives but there is no one like your parents. No one loves you like your immediate family and of course a husband who becomes your immediate family. I can't know how you feel and you can't know exactly how I feel. Nonetheless, I truly understand because when I lost my mother I was still mourning my son. I felt like it was a double header there wasn't that much time between the loss of the mother I came through and my son who came through me. All I can tell you is to continue doing whatever you were involved in before you lost your parents.
Take good care of yourself. Be sure to eat healthy and connect with whoever you can that you feel comfortable being with.
