I have a friend who lost her great grandmother last week, she is so sad and I don't know what to tell her, I have no great grandparents at all, but I did lose all 3 of my grandfathers, 1 I didn't even know, and the other 2 I did.
I don't want to see her upset any more, but I don't know how to talk to her to make her fell better,when I lost my last grandfather it, felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest, but I just don't know what to tell her!! Please help!!



Dragonflymagic is correct in what they wrote. The most important thing you can do for your friend is be their for her. Lend her your shoulder to cry on when needed. The only thing any one can say to anyone grieving over a death is, "I/m sorry for your loss.

Just as you grieved when you lost your grandfather so must she. Everyone grieves in their own way and in their own time. Though we all go through the five different stages of grief.

If she wants to talk about her great grandfather let her. That's her way of grieving. sit and listen that is all she is asking she is not expecting a reply she just needs to talk about him/ Many people would try to change the subject, do not do that. Let her talk and just be supportive.
