My cousin's 6 year old son passed away yesterday at his fathers house (they are not together). The police are involved and we don't know what's going on or what happened. The father has disappeared. My family is devastated and my poor cousin...there just are no words. My other cousins are struggling with how to tell their children (ages range from 5 to 16). I am trying to be strong for my family but this is so hard. I don't know what to do to help. Sorry for dumping this all here, I just am feeling lost. Any positive thoughts to send to my cousin is so appreciated.
