Question by Whatsupppp: What advice do you give to a friend whose grieving a death?
My friend just recently lost his friend to a drunk driver. Usually im SO good with advice but when it comes to death there’s not much to say. all i can say is im so sorry im here if you ever need anything, ect.. but does anyone know anything more elaborate that i can say? something more then the usual? something comforting, something you dont hear often from anyone else.. good advice!
