Thinking of you
by: Carol, Seans Mom

Crystal. How awful for these boys. I have a 22 and16 year old daughter. I just lost my 24 year old son and they their brother. Not quite the same but I can say the grief has been over powering. The boys may need grief counseling but I believe in my heart people need their time also. I am so sorry for them. My thoughts are with you and them. I also lost my dad 5 years ago and now a son. Life can be cruel and we are all left to just pick up the pieces. Give them guidance, they may push it away now but it will mean a lot later. You are all in my thoughts. So much sadness out there.

A thought on what to do
by: Judith in California

Crystal, what I would do if it were me is to gather them together and get your Pastor (if you go to church) and talk to them and tell them it's important to grieve their loss and to continue to grieve until they have let it all out. Ask the Pastor to help them understand about death.

They are going to be in pain for a long time but maybe by understanding that God needed him to come home , it might lessen that pain.

I wish you and the boys peace.
