What to say to a coworker who has a sick family member?
Someone (or a relative) is sick or terminally ill.
Do say: "I'm very sorry to hear this. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers". Be sure to show sympathy by helping the person with their job.
What do you say to someone whose family member is dying?
At the end of the day, something as simple as “I'm so sorry for your loss” or “I'm so sad for you and your family, please accept my deepest condolences” is always appropriate. But you might want to offer something a little deeper than that, especially if you are close to the bereaved.
