Ladies FI lost his uncle yesterday and my heart is breaking for him. This is the first time we are going through a death together. I am tryin to be there for him but it is so hard. FI is a cop and he is in full on "cop mood" which means no emotions at all. It was his mother's twin brother so I am sure it is bringing up mortality issues about his mom as well. As expected his mom is not taking it well at all. FI is a mama's boy at heart. Also his dad doesn't handle stress well and the last time a family member passed his dad was so stressed he had a heart attack.
FI jumped on a plane this morning to head out to Houston to be with his parents and the rest of the family. I know when he get there that the majority of the decisions he is going to have to make. I also know that since he use to work in a mortuary he will take care of all of the funeral arrangements, paper work, ect. He has not taken 1second to grieve. When I ask him if he is okay he say "I'm fine". When I ask what can I do to help he says "you are already doing it, just be here for me." When I asked if he wanted me to go to Houston with him he said no he doesn't want to have to worry about me while he is trying to get everything in order. I feel like I should be doing something. I feel so helpless!!!!
Please pray for him and the family. I would also like some advice on what I can do to help him through this. TIA
