Bit of a long story. My dad died about 18 years ago. then my mum met someone else and she was with him until this week when he died too.
When my dad died I was still living at home with mum and dad but this time I am married with DC so mum is alone.
How do I support her without making a nuisance of myself? I feel like I want to phone her and did just a while ago but the man was there sorting out the funeral.
I don't want her to feel lonely but I want to give her space too.
How do you get the balance right?
