[quote=Anonymous]My friend's 11 year old son is about to die from the most horrific incident imaginable. He's being taken off life support and it's a matter of days, I believe. I've talked to a mutual friend but not her. She lives in another city (flying distance).

How on earth can I be there for her, particularly in times of Covid? I had Covid in the spring, but am worried a little bit about fading immunity and getting on a plane. She has a huge network of family and friends where she lives, and our mutual friend (no kids, unmarried) is flying out there right now. I've texted my friend and got back a quick response. I know she is obviously spending every minute at the hospital and dealing with this horrible, horrible tragedy.

Should I fly out there? Should I go in a month after things settle down? I know there is obviously nothing I can do to make this better, but I hate feeling so helpless.

I should have more information later today about the timing and if/when there will be a service.[/quote]
