What to do when family member dies

floatingnotsinking

I wonder if anybody can point me in the right direction? My father in law is terminally ill and his days are sadly numbered. I remember a post back in December about Stormybays bereavement and recall Martin saying he was going to produce an article outlining what to do when a death occurs and what help you should be entitled to but I can’t seem to find it. Any ideas?

Not sure the article was produced to be honest.

I am sorry to hear about your father-in-law. You will find a lot of info if you Google for bereavement and you will find that the authorities will also be helpful an supportive be that the hospital or hospice, or whoever is caring for your FIL.
