Let her know you are aware of the importance of this event and provide a shoulder to cry on, and an ear to listen with. That's it. Should be all you need to do. Be her best friend...

Other than that, give her some space; with a death in the family often comes personal questions of mortality and why we are here and so on and so forth. Don't bog her down, whatever you do. If it was me, I wouldn't bring it up accept for the one time I would tell her that I understand what she's going through. If you don't, you shouldn't say that because she will know it's superficial, but I'm sure you catch my drift. Of course, being as that a week has gone by, hopefully the worst is over, but deepending on how close she was to her loneliness may start to set in. The only cure for that is a good friend. Good luck, and tell her a stranger on the internet sends their condolances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
