Deaths

[hawkida]

Four people I know lost their mothers yesterday (three deaths, two of those are siblings).

Another friend lost hers around a month ago.

Getting older has some really nasty consequences and I guess I'm going to be seeing more of this from here onwards.

I wish there was something more practical I could say or do for the grieving.

Be there when they want/need to talk. Listen. Maybe cook them something. Listen. Ring them and ask if they need anything, or want to go shopping or something.

Good luck, and I agree with you on the getting older thing. *sigh*
