[quote=Anonymous]I think the most helpful thing you can do is think through what they won't be able to do easily during their situation and then offer to help with that specifically. Generic offers of "let me know if I can do anything' are often more work to coordinate than actual help. For example, I had friend have a stroke. I offered to pick up their kids and drive them to the games and practices for their sports team, and take over their turn as snack parent. Did that solve the stroke...no, but I think it helped give the family one less thing to worry about arranging. [/quote]
