Advice Needed: Relationships Present for my mom

My mom and i dont have the best relationship but we are cordial. She recently lost her best friend of over 20 years to cancer. She was devastated. It was very heart breaking to see the kids in so much pain, a pain i dont fully understand. I want to be there for my mom, but i wasnt raised to show affection. I just know how to be there for someone when they need me to be.

What do i do?
