My cousin's son passed away today

    My cousin's son passed away this morning - today was his 7th birthday.
    I don't know her that well, but my mum is very very close to her and her baby boy. My mum is away at the moment and trying to get a flight home for the funeral. To be honest, it will be like she lost one of her own sons, and is devastated.
    I don't know how to help her through this? Any advice?
    She has asked me to visit the family tomorrow which I will do - is there anything I should do for them?

    Thats very sad. There is often not a lot to do at these times and a lot of people to do it so maybe you could bring them over a dinner or soemthing like that but I think its probably already sorted.

    Some very 'well meaning' relations of ours butted their nose into arrangements without our knowing and I think, even while your Mum knows the girl so well she should just be there and not try to organise stuff unless she is asked.

    The Mum will be busy now but she will need you more in the weeks or months to come...
