[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PPs, thank you for these replies. They are really helpful. My DD asking about my mom has been probably the most emotional part of losing my mom! I feel sad for all of us - me, DD, and certainly my mom. It was cancer and she was barely 60. She would have had a lot of fun with my girls. [/quote] I'm really sorry for your loss, OP. It's so unfair to lose a parent so young. If you see your DD really grieving, not just asking questions and trying to figure it out, don't be afraid to share your grief with her. Controlled and less than hers, but it really helps them to have someone that can empathize and share their feelings. Often we want to protect our children from those hard feelings, but she'll feel them either way and it helps not to feel them alone. [/quote]
