After a su***de loss, people often want to help—but aren’t sure how.
You don’t need to fix the pain; you just need to show up with steady, compassionate presence.
Avoid vague offers like “Let me know if you need anything.” Instead, offer something specific and simple.
Listen to stories, speak their loved one’s name, and keep showing up long after the first few weeks. Remember to care for yourself in the process.
Fort Bend Mental Health encourages our community to heal through connection, consistency, and compassion.
