I'm so sorry you lost your nephew before you could meet him. I hope your financial situation one day allows you to travel out there to meet more of his family -- or that they could visit CA to meet you.
The hardest thing about deaths is beating yourself up with all the "could haves." Please don't do that. You did the best you could, in very trying, confusing, painful circumstances. But what you've done for your mother, making a home together, is wonderful.
Wishing you and your loved ones all the best.
