Let her/him know that you are there for them.

And ask "what do you want me to do for you", not just pushing what you think they should want or need.

Don't ignore them or forget about them, just because they can't swing with you like they used too.

Keep them in your life, include them in your plans. Understand when they say "I can't do it" but keep asking.

It feels good to know that you are loved, missed and needed.
