I lost one friend and nearly lost my best friend over just this issue when my mother died. That me losing my mother makes you uncomfortable is so far beside the point it's ridiculous. You suck it up, call every day, show up at the wake/funeral and you check in/mention it for what seems an unnecessary amount of time after that. That's what friends do.
