Very sorry to hear it
Even though (from what you say) it was expected, be kind to yourself in the coming months. It takes time to get used to the death of a parent. Grief is not something you "get over" - it's always there, but you grow round it and move forward; but things are different. Be as gentle with yourself through that process as you would be to a loved one going through the same thing. Citing kintsugi - the Japanese tradition of mending broken pottery with gold lacquer, so each piece has its own visible history and arguably becomes more beautiful with each scar - is a bit of a cliché, but it seems appropriate.
Take it easy bud x
