Our sister-in-law died in October and my DH has been regularly ringing his brother, her husband, to let him know he's thinking of him.
My DH is not happiest using the phone, but to his credit he said he would keep in regualr contact and he has, as his brother lives quite a way from us.
He rang the other night and after a brief conversation his brother broke down in tears and put the phone down. Now this has created a problem. I asked DH if was going to ring the other night and he said "no, what's the point if it going to upset him". We appreciate of course, what he is going through, but DH does have a point and probably feels very awkward and as I said, it's probably taken courage to ring in the first place. They are not close, close brothers.
How do you acknowledge Easter.
