My husbands grandmother just passed away. She was his last living grandparent.

The funeral is 9 hours away and too short of notice for us to be able to attend.

He was not very close to her, but he’s not taking it well...

He won’t share his feelings with me. He cried a little tonight when I gave him a hug and kiss goodnight. Later I could hear him crying in the bathroom.

I asked if he wanted to talk or just to be together and he said he wanted to be alone, and went to sleep in the spare bedroom.

I can hear him crying now...

I know that everyone grieves differently, but I want to be able to support and be there for him. I just don’t know how...

He’s a big fan of covering up sad feelings with humour and pushing feelings down...

Any advice?
