[quote=Anonymous]I'm very sorry, both for this momentous loss that you have suffered, and for the insensitivity of your ILs and friends. First, remind yourself that people just don't know how to deal with death. It makes people uncomfortable. I know that is no excuse for their behavior, but it isn't unique to them, or to you; in that way, it isn't personal. Though I'm sure it feels very personal. Next, tell them. Tell them directly that you need more support. Tell them you are having a hard time, and that you need others to acknowledge this loss and to show that they are there for you. I'm sure they will want to know that you are struggling and how they can help.[/quote]
