for the third time since november, a friend of mine has lost a parent. it never gets any easier to know what to say in these situations.

"I love and care about you" helps...
unless it's an out and out lie
then "I'm here for you always"
that's good too

whatever you do, don't say anything like...
"I know how you're feeling" because no one does
"you'll get over it" because not really
"your mom is in a better place" because that doesn't help those of us stuck in the not-so-better place

your welcome, it helps that in recent memory very nice, kind people inadvertantly said things that made it worse in trying to make it better..
