How do you show support for others who are coping with loss?

When someone close to you is mourning, knowing how to support them can be hard. How do you like showing compassion when a friend is coping with losing a loved one from Alzheimer's disease?

  1. I like to give someone close to me flowers, a few weeks out after their loss. A few weeks after the passing of both of my parents, who had the Alzheimer's diagnosis. I felt like the world was moving on and I was still grieving. So that's why I like to give flowers a few weeks out to let the person know that they are on my mind. Their loss and grief is not forgotten. Just Keep Swimming...Lynn Marie, "AlzheimersDisease.net Team Member"
