“I’ll walk your dog every morning this week.”
“Can I pick up groceries for you tomorrow?”
Or simply show up—with food, tissues, or silence.
💛 The Golden Rule of Grief Support
Don’t try to fix it. Just be there.
Mourners don’t need answers. They need:
Presence (sit with them in silence)
Permission (to cry, rage, or laugh)
Practical help (meals, childcare, errands)
Patience (grief doesn’t follow a timeline)
“The greatest gift you can give someone in grief is the courage to witness their pain without flinching.”
