28 years of missing my little sister

They say grief gets easier with time - and yes the day to day gets easier but the emptiness and missing them feels the same to me … my heart goes out to everyone on this group and sending lots of love and hugs.

I lost my beautiful brave little sister twice - she had a double brain haemorrhage when she was 4 and then became severely disabled for the next 6 years.l and died just before her 10th birthday.

She coped with so much for so long of her life and as her big sister I felt helpless. Before she had her haemorrhage she was a fun, full of energy bright, inquisitive little girl.

I often wonder what she would look like now, what would she be doing, how our relationship would be and as I get older I find it harder to push the sadness away. She has always been my motivation and inspiration to do better and try as many new experiences as possible - I have 2 lives to live - hers and mine.
Can anyone else relate ? X

My brother of 56 passed away suddenly a month ago, and my heart is broken, your loss puts mine in perspective, I had all those years with him. But it is still so harrowing. sending you hugs :people_hugging: .
