Good, very good. Mad Dog is an amazing man. I'm so glad he'll be there for her, along with te rest of us. Eleven years is a long time to be close to someone, even if it's far in the past now. Our poor Mums...
It's big, but it's not without reason, either. When my mother died, to be perfectly honest, I was probably more upset by the way I found out than the fact that she was gone. She wasn't horrible, but she was culpable, and it wasn't until very late in life that she did anything about that. I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with not feeling anything about this, unless that in itself is going to bother you.
