when my sister passed away several years ago, i had such a hard time with the loss. i felt very much separate from others in dealing with my grief.
i know how hard it was for you. my parents and my brother lived in a different country so i could not even go there at that time to be with them. i felt heartbroken and alone
yes, i am sure you can relate as well. ironically, that was the same age that my sister passed away. she took her own life, which my mother and i found her, and it was very hard for us all. but, i could not burden my parents with my pain, i felt.
