Not only do grandparents grieve for their grandchild, but they also worry deeply about their child and their child’s partner.

The passing of a grandchild is a unique loss. This brochure reassures grandparents the normalcy of feeling unequipped to adequately support their child and their child’s partner while also experiencing their own grief.

Topics included in this brochure:

• Suggestions for supporting the grieving parents

• Tending to your own grief

• Meeting your grandchild

• Helpful vs. hurtful things to say

We hope this information will help grandparents in their own grieving process and guide them in supporting their children.
