Helpful answered Thursday June 14 2007, 11:12 pm: I think you are right- your loss has probably triggered something inside your family. This is a tough question to answer, and this is the best I have. Just love them. You can talk things over when you're ready, but realize that this is not a normal thing for your family and it will probably not continue to be. But don't let it. The change can start with you. Pay attention to how you treat the members of your family and do good things for them. It will make you all feel better. I'm sorry for your loss and I hope your family can heal soon.

Remanise the days everyone had with her. Grief shouldn't overcome your life. Losing a loved one is hard, but if you remember her you'll feel better. If your family continues to fight, get out of the house for a while. Stay at a friends or something. Talk to somebody about your grief. Talking helps better than action.
