I'm really struggling to support my friend who's infant child passed (under 2 years) away not long ago. Without going into detail it was very unexpected and sudden and I'm still very much in shock myself. Our children are all ages and I can't get my head around what's happened and that my DC little friend has gone. Since it's happened I've gone into automatic support and assist mode, passing on the news to wider friendship groups, dropping off food, taking the older children for playdates, going for walks so that she can just talk. I'm honored to be able to help in whatever way I can but I'm honestly finding everything she has to say so hard to hear and I feel incredibly guilty because how unimaginable is what she's going through? I can't even bare to think about what she's feeling. How do I keep my head when I am starting to feel myself wobble? I want to stay strong for her but don't know how to do it. I have also lost 3 friends this past year all in very sudden and unexpected ways and every time I think that life has turned a page something awful has happened. I don't think I've been able to deal with my own grief re my friends and now I have to somehow grieve a child too. It's too much but also not anything what my friend is going through. My head is all over the place. I don't have time to take to process any of this as I have young kids myself. How am I meant to navigate all this?
