re: Tips for dealing with young kids and "traumatic" experiences?

i have a 3 year old and we will soon be dealing with the loss of her great grandmother, who she calls "grandmaw".... i doubt she'll ever remember her personally, but i know for a while after her passing, when we make trips to my parents' house, where my grandmother currently lives, she'll look for her to be there, as she "knows" grandmaw...

losing my grandmother (the only grandparent left) is gonna be hard on us, i know, but i doubt she'll ever remember it.... she's too young, i think, to fully have long lasting memories of sentimental value yet... guess we won't really know until later down the road, but yeah....
