I'm so sorry for the loss of your son and I only hope your relative will come to realize her insensitivity. Please take care of yourself.

When you’d like to share about Jonathan, we would like to listen.

Hugs. You will get through this. You will breathe and take one step at a time. I will send you thoughts of strength. When someone says something that is hurtful or insensitive just tell yourself what a dumbsh&t they are, nod and go about your business because as other posters have said people don't realize how things sound to someone who is raw inside from a recent loss.

I am so very sorry for the loss of your dear Jonathan. I pray that you'll be surrounded with the comfort you need, and no more thoughtless comments. Sadly, people often don't understand unless they go through a loss themselves.

I am so sorry that your son Jonathan passed. I can't imagine the feelings you have right now. Be gentle with yourself and do whatever allows you to get through the holidays.
((HUGS))

That woman was incredibly rude and lacked empathy of any sort. Right now your community should be coming to you and taking care of you without you lifting a finger. Shiva doesn't end after 7 days and you need a lot more time before you will be in the mood to celebrate and party. Please don't put any pressure on yourself to do anything right now. Your job is put one foot in front of the other, try to move forward and that's as far as it goes.
I'm so very sorry about the loss of your son. May your son's memory be for a blessing.

I am so very sorry about the loss of your Jonathan. I'm not sure how you're even functioning right now, much less thinking of holidays. I truly hope this was just one insensitive remark from an otherwise compassionate person. If not, please have your husband deal with them in the future.
They only thing you need to do now is concentrate on YOU. Do what you need to get up every day and give yourself the gift of doing whatever you need. Good heavens - a couple weeks! You poor pumpkin. I am just heartsick for you. Many, many hugs sent your way.

I am so so sorry for the loss of your son!
Your relative was very insensitive and you should only do what you are comfortable with.
Please be easy on yourself there is no time table for grief.
When you are up to it and if you feel comfortable I hope you will share some memories of your son with us.
People can say the stupidest things when others are struggling with grief or something traumatic in their life.
Someone from my town who knows my son is very ill and in the hospital asked me last week what i was doing for Christmas I said I will be at the hospital with my son!?!?!
Take care of yourself and be kind to yourself!

You know there is someone on here at all hours of the day and night. Just be reassured that you aren't the only person in here at night. Lots of ears and eyes to read and listen. We are all here for you any time of the day. Don't feel funny about posting your feelings. This is seriously tragic news and we will hold hands with you through this. You are a Pea and we look after our own.
Love and hugs, Elannah

This is horrible. No parent should ever have to bury their child. I am so sorry. I pray that others will extend grace to you.

So sorry about the loss of your son. {{{{Hugs}}}} Prayers for you and your family to get through these most difficult times. As another poster indicated, I would just have your husband deal with people for now. Take your time, do only what feels right for you and if you go to the party empty handed, so be it. Take care of you!

I'm so sorry for the loss of Jonathon. A prayer for you...
Father I come to you asking comfort for Jonathon's mom. Please wrap your arms around her and give her peace that surpasses all understanding. Give her the strength she needs in the coming days and weeks. Give those around her wisdom and guidance in what to say and do, especially her husband. I ask you to bring forward forgotten, happy memories at just the right time. Please help others to share favorite memories of Jonathon at the perfect time. Lord, please remind Mom how precious she and Jonathon are to you. Amen
I will continue to pray for you and I too would love to hear about Jonathon when you are ready.
