I could use some sound advice. I can't imagine what he is going through. First because I have never had that sort of closeness with anyone and second I just can't imagine.
I would like to be able to kiss his wound and make it better, that is the mom in me, but I know I can't. So what can I do?

To have someone to listen to is a big help. After my first son's death, everyone around me didn't like for me to talk about him. But I had a friend at work who would listen to me all the time talk about my Darrel. She will never know how much she helped me, even tho I have tried to tell her. So I think listening is a big step.
