- Don't shock easily, but accept your human feelings. Are not embarrassed by your tears
- Do not give unwanted advice
- Are warm and affectionate with you according to your needs
- Help you recall your strengths when you have forgotten that you have strengths
- Trust you to be able to come through this difficult time
- Treat you like an adult who can make your own decisions
- May become angry with you but do not attack your character
- Respect your courage and sense of determination
- Understand that grief is normal and understand the stages of grief
- Have been through times of difficulty and can share those times with you
- Try to understand what your feelings mean to you
- Are faithful to commitments and promises
- Pray with you and for you
(Ann Kaiser Stearns)
