When Faith is Shaken by Unthinkable Loss by Teresa Janzen and Jenn Dafoe-Turner
When someone is grieving, you don't have to fix their pain—you just need to be present.

Remember, some days, simply getting out of bed is a victory. Your presence, patience, and compassion can mean more than the perfect words.
