Support For Grandparents, Siblings and Friends and Family     "Everyone is affected by the loss of a child"
 
   
                                                                                                                                                                                                              
 Many people don't realize what the death of a child does to the people around the mother and father. Many times the fathers are often forgotten but siblings, grandparents, other family and friends are also greatly affected when a baby dies. Grandparents, suffer not only the loss of their grandchild, they also hurt from the fact that they can't heal the pain for their child who's suffered the loss. Siblings can display their emotions differently, and often parents forget that they are grieving too. Friends and family tend to view the loss of a child as going against the natural order of death. They begin to question their own mortality, if they have children they may also feel guilty for having a living child, because of those feelings they may back away from you. Here are some links to assist in understanding how everyone is affected.
