My best friend just passed away at 30 - I really want to be able to be there for her children’s let them know I am alway

Answered 4 years ago

My best friend just passed away at 30 - I really want to be able to be there for her children’s let them know I am always here. I wanted to send them a gift and I’m just not sure what...

My friends son (8) found her and rang his step dad at work to say his mum was cold and grey. :( they don’t know what happened yet.

With current restrictions it means I can’t get to any of them as they are in a different state.

The two eldest children went to their dad who I’ve never met and baby to her dad and my friend.

I really want these children that I am their for them unconditionally. I want to be able to send them something. I just don’t know what...

My heart is breaking and I know their mum would want me to support those kids always.

What can I do to show them support ?

Oh god this is so hard my heart breaks for all of you. Im not sure what to suggest, but i think first i would try to get in contact with the two Dads where the children have gone, tell them what youve said above, give them your contact details. If you know the older children well enough ask to speak with them, tell them your heart is broken too, remind them how much their mum loves them and tell them you will always be there for them, then be there, be ready for utter sorrow and dont worry if you too break down and cry with the children. Maybe as a token gift - something to hold- a blanket, a bear a pillow something they can hold onto in their grief, something to link them to you, it may bring them comfort and once the fog of grief lifts hopefully they will remember your kindness and get in touch with you, if you dont hear from them for a while, get back in touch to see how they are all going and remind them that you are there for them. All my love your way ❤️
