My neighbor’s son passed away in April last year and what would have been his son’s 23rd birthday is coming up at the end of the month, so I know the next few weeks are going to be really hard on him.
We’re friends, but not super close. I’d like to do something for him, but can’t think of much beyond bringing over food and/or flowers. Any suggestions?
You could organise a meal train, i find it hard to accept help, but last time I suffered a loss, having firends bringing me meals every week was a real weight off my mind (oh this isnt such a recent loss, meals would still help though I’m sure)
also just sitting with them long enough for them to talk about how theyre feeling would be really helpful
