Bad news - what to do?

I got some really bad news about the health of a family member today.
This has been an ongoing battle, but this is the first time I have had to face a turn for the worse sober.
Fortunately, the last few months have been good news, but boy was the beast raising its head this afternoon.

I'm not going to drink, today, or at all for that matter, but I have no idea how to cope with the uncertainty, the sadness, the bad news.

I'm just so used to numbing myself, and this is a big hurdle after a lot of loss already this year.

Any suggestions?
