[QUOTE="Fran, post: 137274, member: 3"] Barb, sending my condolences. It's always sad when a parent leaves us on so many levels. I'm not sure if you were on the site when my dad passed away. He was at our home. I found my siblings a huge support. We told stories and laughed and cried. It felt right sharing those stories and how much we had healed our relationship with him as he mellowed. It was a special time with my brother and sisters. My parents divorced late in life so mom was in the periphery. I can't really help with how to console her for her loss. Maybe letting her share stories of her life with your dad. It always feels cathartic and clean. Just a thought. Take care Barbara. I'll keep a good thought for you and your family. [/QUOTE]
