Enjoy Your Christmas but Support those in Mourning too

Like hundreds of Kenyans, my family will be approaching this Christmas still in mourning having lost our sister Praxidees. A nurse who dedicated her life to the service of humanity in this country, a daughter; a wife and a mother who will be missed immensely. And like us many Kenyans have lost their loved ones through road accidents, negligence in hospitals or natural causes and for sure there will be one empty chair around the dinner table this Christmas.

The usual Christmas songs will be sung, festivities held, presents purchased. But there is one group of people too-oft overlooked, not out of indifference, but really out of confusion. What do you do when someone you love is grieving, especially this time of year? Do you really know how to best support those who mourn during the holidays?
