As said in longshot (madden 18)
Football is family!
My uncle has been through it 5 years ago after we lost my cousin. He was acting like the cornerstone of the family and forgot to heal his own sorrowness ( i dont know if thats a word, correct me if im wrong). It lately struck him big time at the 5 year "anniversary" , hoepfully he had people beside him to help him, otherwise i dont know what wouldve happen.
What im trying to say is you gotta take the time to heal that scar of yours to the fullest.
Good luck my friend!
