I have a friend in her early 40s, who recently lost her mum, who was in her early 70s, after an illness. My friend has taken the loss very hard, as they were very close, and is struggling to return to normal life, work etc. I am trying to be as supportive as I can, especially as I am a similar age and know I will go through the same thing one day. However, she just keeps saying she feels too young to be going through this yet and feels resentful of people who have their mums much longer (her dad is still alive but she is not as close to him). I’m just not sure what to say or how best to help her.
