[QUOTE="slsh, post: 246589, member: 8"] Star - pretty simple actually, because there is *nothing* you can say to her to take away the pain. So- "I love you, I am here for you 24/7, and I'm standing right here with you - whatever you need, whenever." I think the one comment that hurt me most when my daughter died even though I know the speaker meant no harm was "she's in a better place". Um... not comforting. The one comment that gave me alternating pain, anger, and now mostly comfort was "God has a plan and we don't get to know what it is". I'm truly sorry for your loss, my friend. [/QUOTE]
