I found my brother dead when I was 13 he was 28 and died from a diabetic fit. He had been dead 2 days. He was my mum’s first born of 6 and she was crushed so I just kinda blocked out my feelings as we already had an abusive dysfunctional family. It’s only really the last few years I’ve been able to talk about it with my older sister and have had to start trauma therapy now. I wish I had gotten help a long time ago
