How can i aupport my 2 friends when the situations are linked to experience? so hard

2 of my friends need as much support as possible right now as they have both lost relatives recently. One lost her uncle on the 17th of March in a car crash and the other lost her grandad on the 22nd of March due to losing his battle to cancer.
Anyway both of this situations its hard to support of them because of what ive been through or currently going through. With the car accident its because of when I was involved in one 2 years ago and also because of my friend being in a serious car accident in Nov and ending up in a coma. With the cancer one is obviously its hard for me to hear someone has died because of cancer especially when my cousin is going through it right now. how can I help them when its hard for me to recall the situations?!
Need some advice

I am sorry that you and your friends are going through a tough spell. If you are planning on supporting them, just make sure you take some time for yourself, maybe post here to talk about your feelings too so that you arent ignoring your own experiences.
I can understand that it might be difficult to support them both. But you sound like you are doing all you can.
