“Also, remember these people are grieving and are probably looking at something to be angry about because being angry at a girl losing her battle isn’t logical… but it is one of the steps of grief.”
“I’m just wondering what the siblings got… it must be hard for the little ones. A child with cancer needs much more and special attention, and it can be hard to be the “healthy” child, especially for little kids, because they might not understand why there isn’t much time and attention left for them.”
“And if their sick sibling gets expensive and exciting gifts and they are left out, then for the children, not the adult family members, I can understand that it’s hard (the gift part, the sickness part is obviously hard for everyone).”
“I mean getting less attention and less gifts and then losing their sibling, that’s so much to handle for a child all at once. Not getting less gifts or less expensive ones, but feeling less loved or important because of it.”
“All in all I just hope they are doing as well as they can after something so devastating.”
“I feel this. My mom died last Jan. The day after she died, my dad and I were looking through her clothes for what we wanted to send to the funeral home.”
“My dad picked up a bathrobe and told me how he’d just given it to her for Christmas. This sight of him standing there clutching that robe is one of the most heartbreaking things I have ever seen.”
“You’re wonderful people. I’m so sorry for your loss. Respectfully, you are under tremendous pressure.”
