Bloody hell. I'm so sorry! I'd give you a great big hug if I could. I've been there. How to cope. Love them and be there with them. My initial reaction was to, and I know its going to sound cold, but it was to avoid them. I couldn't take it, the pain, their presence. And I regret it, not spending all the time I could with them because I was scared. And then when she passed instead of grieving I tried to go on with life as normal and I broke into a million pieces. so all I can advise is to love them, be there with them and prepare yourself to grieve.
