We have borrowed these clippings from @sandscharity because we would like to share our viewpoints and to hear some of yours. ❤️❤️LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS BELOW❤️❤️
Simply saying sorry can help when someone is feeling isolated?
I have to disagree and the more I hear that 5 letter word the more I disagree. It doesn’t help – its something someone says because they can’t think of anything else. Because society dictates that is how we deal with bereaved individuals.
But why? Why do you feel the need to say sorry? What did you do? Did you harm my unborn child?
Another one of these clippings suggests asking how we are. This is probably a better way to approach us. We may tell you how we feel, what we are angry about, why we are crying, why we have done certain things or why we are acting a certain way.
Asking how someone is doing does help a little bit.
But only if you are prepared to listen. Don’t ask if you don’t really want to know. That is worse than not asking at all.
If you don’t know what to say then let us know that. Generally we have a lot to say so we can fill in the gaps. Who knows we might even be able to hold a conversation with you. If you are really attentive then you may realise that we are also human beings and are able to interact with you on a variety of levels.
