Be Aware: Grief work is a natural and necessary process
Be There: Grief is not a problem to be solved, but a process to be experienced.
Be Sensitive: Learn to allow the pain rather than to remove it.
Be Human: Allow expression of feelings – guilt, anger, sorrow, depression – without judgment.
Be Ready: Listen attentively when the story is told again and again.
Be Patient: The process of mourning takes time.
When a person is grieving and we do not know the right thing to say or do,
