I am sorry for your pain, I will tell you what I wished and still wish people would have said to me when I lost my husband 1 1/2 ago. Of course it is the standard stuff right now, the I am sorry, I am here if you need anything, but what will mean the most more than anything is in a week, a month, two months, still be there. Mean what you say. I can't tell you how many people have said all those stanard things you say... but two months three months later, no phone calls, voice mail recordings no return calls. I know everyone life goes on, but keep in mind there's lives aren't. For them this is all consuming, just remember that. Just be there
