From people who came through it

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are a few years back. My little brother died at 27. That was every day. I wake up most days without that dread. It changes. It really does. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ€

    Callum from Derry R ยท been through loss of a brother or sister

  • โ€œDear stranger, i was in the same place in 2022. The worst part: nobody asks about the sibling. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ€

    Trey K ยท been through loss of a brother or sister

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. A few years back, that was me. For me it was his children. Now I sleep most nights. It changes. It really does.โ€

    Maciej from ลรณdลบ W ยท been through loss of a brother or sister

  • โ€œFor anyone new to this: I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember looking after my parents now like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Be gentle with yourself.โ€
