Annie has been deeply grief striken and devastated, realising her beloved grandmother and me will die one day. I told her about heaven, which I don't believe in. If she can believe in it, she'll be happier in life.

I sort of did that early on with my children, too. Then add all the ways life is a cycle and the more memories we make, the pictures we take, the letters we write, the videos with audio we make and save, etc., those beloved people will always be part of our lives. And we can always talk about them.
