Words for someone who is dying

Gestures Speak As Loud As Words

If you are looking for special words of comfort for someone who is grieving, look no further than within your heart. Your goal should be to express compassion, not to cheer up someone who is recently bereaved.

For caregivers, figuring out how to speak to a parent, senior loved one or someone who is dying can be both challenging and emotionally-wrenching. Fortunately, there are things you can say that will help your loved one maintain dignity and respect during their final days. For a family caregiver, the difficulties can be innumerable, between coping with the details of end-of-life care while also dealing with our own grief. Sometimes, even with the best of intentions, we may not know what to do or say to be the greatest comfort to a loved one who is dying. You may feel uncomfortable, but your loved one needs you. Let that person take the lead. Kenneth Doka, Ph.
