Being present for a grieving friend by recognizing and bearing witness to their pain is at least as important as the words you have to offer, explains JessieFein
It's hard to know what to say to a griever, and it can be even harder to know what not to say.
When I was in high school, the three-year-old sister of a friend of mine died. My friend took a few days off school, which gave me time to obsess about what I’d say to her when she returned. She was my first friend to experience death up close, and I didn’t want to get it wrong. Fast forward several decades. Having survived the deaths of my parents, my sisters, and my teenage daughter, I can truly say I’ve heard it all. And while I know we try our best, I also know that death andI’m sure I’ve gotten it wrong myself dozens of times. After all, each situation brings its own sensitivities and minefields. But now I know what not to say to someone who’s grieving.
