Suzy, Unfortunatly there is not much you can do. If you can take even just one child of your neighbours hands for a few hours I'm sure that will help. You neighbour will need time to come to with what has happened. If she doesn't want you to take the kids tell her the offer is there if she needs it. All you can do is be there to comfert and support the family. I'll say a prayer for them and you. |

Suzy Death is always a shock, even when expected. Out of the blue like this, and to someone so young, it is very difficult to comprehend. You ahve already offered your neighbour your support. I am sure at the moment people will be rallying round, it may well be some months ahead that she will want to talk or have some help with the children. I am sure you will be there for her, just as everyone on GR is here for you when/if you want to express your feelings. nell |

(((((HUGS))))). Such a sad story, my thought are with you and you neighbour. You've offered help to M-I-L, but maybe you should reiterate this to your neighbour when you see her. Or leave it a few days and take 'round a card and maybe some flowers or something. You could offer to look after the children for her - maybe on the day of the funeral if they are not going to attend. People react in different ways in these circumstances your neighbour may just like to talk and cry to someone who's not family. GP |

Suzy what a huge shock for you. It's a terrible thing to happen, especially one so young. What can I say, except be strong for his family - they'll need you. (((HUG))) x |
