It is extremely difficult to comfort a family member or close friend who has lost a loved one and is immersed in incomprehensible grief.
When it envelops your family member, or friend, exhaustion, anger, guilt, and confusion consume each grieving person, differently.
Politely ask your friend or family member what is needed, and consider how you, and others, can show support, as soon as possible.
A basket, filled with comforting and delicious chocolate cookies, and brownies, a nutritious tray of dried fruits and nuts, or chocolates, and perfectly paired, sweet, restorative, red wine, speak the words you cannot say, at this time.
