What ami suppose to do?


Question Posted Thursday January 12 2006, 6:01 am

ok I'm on holiday i UK. im from seychelles. im suppose to go back home on Sunday. but the problem is that ive just search for news on the net about my country and i've found out that my very close friend has lost her nephew in a boat accident on the 4th and his brother is in the ICU (i dont really know if his still alive). the accident happened on the 1st.she must be thinking that i dont know. when i go back home i dont know what to do. i mean in the group that we hang out with we are always there for each other. i feel guilty i wasnt there for the funeral plus the girl is still young she is only 13. im just not sure what to say. they always came to me for comfort but now im stuck

Id say not to worry about it. She's had time to grieve, and im sure she has talked to other people about it. Just try to get home as soon as possible, but when you see her, dont bring it up, wait for her to say something about it. Good luck

You have nothing to feel guilty for. It was your circumstances and not you that kept you away from everyone. No one will fault you for this. I'm sure they understand why you haven't been in contact with them. I do have an idea though...Since you have access to a computer you can email everyone and especially your friend and let them know that you just found out. You can especially send your condolences to your friend who lost her nephew and let her know your thoughts are with her as well as your heart and you will be home soon. You could also buy one of those long distance phone cards and call your friend who lost her nephew and then email everyone else. When you get home you immediately go to her house even before you unpack and visit with her. This will let them know how much they mean to you. They can't fault you.

I do feel badly for you in this time of stress. Relax. Takes some deep breaths. It will all be ok, I promise. I have some great relaxation exercises on my advice colunm. These will be of great assistance to you in lowering your anxiety level. Good luck to you!


Namaste,



LULABELLE

When you talk to your friend, tell her that you heard what happened and that you're there for her. She'll appreciate your support and I'm sure she'll understand that you were unable to come to the funeral. In situations like this, sometimes the best thing is to simply be there for your friend. She may want to talk or simply need a shoulder to cry on.
