A member of my family is close to death with DDs who are only 4 and 8. I’d be really grateful for any suggestions for books that might help them cope with what is happening? Thank you.

Winston’s wish are who I thought of. They also do support work in schools.

Thank you so much - the list is exactly what I was after and I’ll share it with the family member and see what would help them all most.

Sorry to hear that your relatives family are in this situation.

I lost my partner in 2015 and subsequently joined WAY ( widowed and young) and have found the group to be a great source of support for the whole family.

Big hugs xx
