Yes and to reintegrate Aprilbaby's post, the children need support over a very long time going forward, even grown or mature children can take several years to recover from the loss to a point where they can function at their best. My father died when I was young. I never really fully dealt with it tbh as the ramifications were everywhere for many many years while my elder brother became very depressed for some years. And grief can be very isolating, even between family members. Church support should help.rosetta|1390573464|3600180 said:Oh no. I'm so sorry for your poor brother. He has support, that's good. It would be good if the support could carry on for longer than a few days. Could you speak to his church family about setting up a sort of rota to make sure they take turns checking up on him ? Sorry to be so practical, but it's the months after the loss that really start to hurt.
