From people who came through it

  • 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€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I wrote them a letter and kept it in my bag for months. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are a few years back. Looking after my parents now. That was my life. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.โ€

    Isla I. ยท been through loss of a brother or sister
  • 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€
