I'm in the UK and he and my Mum are in SA (they live here but have a property there and my Dad's S.African). It feels totally surreal and I haven't been able to talk to my Mum for more than a few minutes as they live out in the sticks and there's no mobile signal :( My brother lives out there and is driving to be with my Mum tomorrow but I want to be there too, I feel awful they're so far away. I've been phoning family here as it's something I can do but it all feels surreal and like a bad joke. It was sudden he slipped into a coma and his heart stopped and he died, he was only 62 :(
