My sister died

Hi, I am not danish but I live here and found this service. My sister (40) died 2 weeks ago. I have not been able to access my feelings of grief because my partner decided she did not want to attend the funeral and, unfortunately, feelings of resentment to my partner have taken over.

I love my partner but I am very hurt by her inaction and my brain is focusing on that rather than my sisters death and I feel guilty about that. What can I do

Dear You

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I am truly sorry for your loss which I can sense by your writing must feel as a double loss – One being the loss of your sister and the other being the hurt as well as – understandable  though unfortunate – resentment towards your partner due to her behavior in your situation.

I have no knowledge about your relationship other than what you have written about her in your mail BUT I need to be clear with one huge important thing: You have to and need to talk with her about it so she is aware of your grief – Remember it is not necessary for her to share and be in the grief with you.

I hope my reply will help you in the best way possible. You are always welcome to contact us – also on the phone every day all year long from 17 to 21 pm at the number 70 209 903.


Best wishes
