["My mom, who's in her 60s, lost her best friend today, who passed away. She was one of the only friends my mother had, and I feel sad for her since she lost a connection to her childhood and past. She seems really lonely.", "I'm so sorry to hear that. It's hard losing someone that dear to her. I hope she opens herself up to healing.", "Yeah, just doesn't feel like there's much to offer her. I'm also not living close, so I can only have phone conversations with her, which, again, doesn't offer much. She's a good person, so I hate to see her so bent out of shape"]
It's gonna take some time, and I'm sure those phone calls help more than you think.
