Man. What a bummer this is. I have NO idea how to cope with this or help. Grandpa's are supposed to be a help......and I'm at a loss.
Oldest grandson here now. Youngest one coming Friday night. Youngest one is barely 6, in Kindegarten.
Youngest one lost one of his best friends. Died of the Flu!!! He is so bummed, and sad, and depressed. I haven't seen him but can hear it in his voice, and his mama says so.
I need divine guidance for knowing what to say this weekend to help him. I have some idea, but no clue if it will help or not. This is just not the way life is supposed to work out.
I miss the little guy terribly. But it may be hard to not just break down when I see him, just knowing what he's going through. Kids that age don't have the coping mechanisms to deal with this stuff.
Hug your kids and grandkids. Hard.
