There will be a deeper appreciation for those children and grandchildren who survive. There will be a greater understanding of others who experience similar loss. Many grandparents become more compassionate because of the tragic event that has touched their lives. Healing will help the bereaved accept the new understanding which has been forced upon them. Healing Does Occur Grief is the price we pay for loving.
Grandparents love both the dead grandchild and the grieving parents.
As they grieve and try to understand the parents, healing will occur. For, as love remains and that love will never leave, time will bring healing. Though they retain scars, grandparents will recall the happy times they once shared with their children and their grandchild and not just the tragedy and sense of loss that they have come to know.
