I hope you can find some way to be home (try video conferencing with them).
Yeah, video conferencing does help. I was always really close to my family, so it's hard not being able to make holiday treats with my mom, or watch movies with my dad and siblings.

I guess we're lucky these days to have airplanes and email and such. I was thinking back on how hard it must have been for people in older times, to leave everything behind and only be able to write letters to their loved ones.
