Adult Sibling Grief Community

Hi Kailyn:

I’m so sorry to hear about your sister. I can imagine how difficult this must be. But I definitely think you should be the bigger person on this one. Your sister is about to lose her life any day […]

Your post was very beautiful and inciteful. I am deeply sorry for your loss. I lost my older sis a year ago on the 18th of Feb. People do expect us to move on. It’s a reflection of the lack of empathy in our […]

What would be the point of life if death was final? I too look forward to seeing my sister when the time is right. I miss her a lot

I am sorry for your losses Tinker. You are so strong.

I am trying to stay strong. Even when the crying stops, the numbness settles in. there are so many layers to grief.

Hi. I’m sorry for ur friends loss. I pray to be blessed w/ a dream. My dreams happen when I least expect it. Tell him to be patient. And goodluck.

Hi Terry: Birthdays are so hard. My sister’s birthday is coming up in November, and I’m not sure what I’m gonna do. But we’re here for you if it gets too hard. Reach out to love ones as well. Don’t tackle it alone. Go out and celebrate her memory if possible. Her birth represents the [...]

Dear Sarah: I’m so sorry for your loss. Im sure it must be hard especially being the oldest but we’re here for you. This website has been a blessing in my time of grief. The people here are just angels who truly care and understand our pain. Being on this site taught me to take [...]

Casperfriend, I know just how you feel. I read my emails and see my pictures in the past, and I envy not having this pain. I didn’t even know what it felt like. And it hits me, while I was happy and secure, this website was around. This pain was waiting for me, and it [...]

Thank you for sharing your story. Your brother seemed like a wonderful person. It’s hard not knowing the reason for the departure. We just found out why my sister died but it doesn’t bring any relief or closure. It’s hard being a sibling because people assume that we have our own lives and we’ll bounce [...]

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my sister, my best friend and my heart four months ago. Sometimes, I look at her picture then look away because I can’t believe she was here four months ago apart of my reality and now she’s my dreams, my memories. It’s shocking to say the least. [...]

This is a hard situation. I think regardless of your decision, you could send a card expressing your condolence. As for attending, that’s your decision, and you should do what is best for you…even if it might come from a place of resentment. Understandably, you’re hurt by their response, and you shouldn’t diminish your feelings [...]

Wow Ashley, my sis and I were just as silly. Sometimes embarassingly silly. Thats another example of sisterhood. Having someone that’s all your own, who’ll accept us no matter what. Thank you for sharing.

My sis use to prank call me, and act like she was some mysterious guy. In the beginning, I would fall for it. Then later I would roll my eyes, laugh, and say, I know it’s you. She would crack herself up. What was funny about it was that I had caller ID so why [...]
