Have you tried to write down thoughts as a way of coping with #grief?
Andrew’s son (Charlie), a fit and healthy 17-yr-old, died very suddenly in 2017. During his support from Cruse, Andrew was encouraged to write down his thoughts to help his grieving process.
#TuesdayThoughts
Supporting a friend or relative who has been bereaved can be difficult - particularly when it comes to knowing what to say or how to provide comfort 💜

@Mohameddharoor Appalling and displaying extreme ignorance . Try not to let comments from such an unpleasant person affect you and please know how much you are valued by the vast majority
Bereaved children tell us they want people to acknowledge what has happened. So please include them when you reach out to grieving families as part of the National #DayofReflection on Tuesday.
Write a note or card just for them or a text. It will mean a lot to them.
