@iserbrown Yes indeed. I've seen behavioural changes in my niece and nephew but my daughter is a still waters run deep type person. I'm not surprised that she internalised the shock and stress. I have made sure that over the last six months we've had lots of cuddles as we normally do. My heart aches for her. For both my womb kids. From 2012 to 2016 they watched two aunts die slowly from cancer. They saw my sister-in-law just about every week of their lives. No one significant died in my life until I was in my late twenties. My hope is that it will help shape them into empathetic caring humans, but geeze, I wish this hadn't happened to them.
