I'm so sorry for your loss. My infant grandson died of SIDS in 2001. What often happens with grandparents is that we want to take care of the child's parents, as is natural, but we have a hard time letting ourselves grieve. I found hospice counseling to be very helpful but I also appreciated online support from other grandparents. I highly recommend the MISS Foundation (http://www.missfoundation.org/). They will email or mail you a family support packet and you can access the grandparents' forum as well. (Check under "support" on the home page)
