RoyalBlu: I was in a similar situation to yours some years ago. I lost my only sister to sickness. She was not supposed to die if she got the right care and support from her husband. This was someone going through chemo, yet working her ass out. She fends for the whole family (pays house rent, feeding, other bills) and comes back to do all the house chores. Her husband being a lazy ass was not helping in any way even though he was not working, having lost his job. My only sister died under the weight of the burden of work and treatment. What a pity. May her soul continue to rest in peace. So I quite understand how you feel right now because I have been there myself. Dear, brace up. Be strong. Only you can help yourself in this situation. No one else. Don't allow this weigh you down. Whatever you are feeling is a natural reaction to the sad loss of your sister. All I can say is "be strong for you and your parents" May her soul continue to rest in pace. Peace |

RoyalBlu: I have been there too, so I know exactly what you're going through. I know how deep the pain is, especially one so young, but you must try, albeit how hard, to embrace reality and find a way to let go. The scar will be there, you'll cry whenever you remember the things you used to do together, but you must learn to let go and move on. See RoyalBlu, moving on will not be automatic and easy. In fact, it's going to be one of the hardest things you've ever done so far, but you really have to let go and move on. I pray God to rest her soul, and give her loved ones the fortitude to bear the irreparable and irreplaceable loss. April, 2023 was the fourth year I received that call that almost paused my own life too. The shock landed me in the hospital, but I thank God for the Grace to let go and move on myself. It was one hell of a trial, but here I am now, advising someone else! Even this time shall pass, no matter how long it drags. *Hugs* from me to you. 1 Like |

You are bereaved and I actually feel your pain . I experienced a similar thing when I lost my mum, I loved her so much and her death was so painful to me that 8 years on, I still remember her often and more painful that I wasn’t able to make her happy before her demise |

I'm really so sorry and I understand your pains, I lost my sister in February during child birth and the shock is still living in me.. I nearly lost faith in God, I'm so helpless even seeing my Mum in tears, I regretted coming to this world that very day I lost my sister.. I'm so sorry about the death of your sister |

verifywithme: Oh no That's so sad. Really sorry for your loss. I hope the baby is okay? It's well. Grief has a way of messing up our minds but I'm trusting God to see us all through. |

It's been barely three weeks so allow yourself some more time to mourn. Nothing should stop or distract you from mourning or else you'll find it hard to move on. Sorry for your loss and even as you mourn, be strong. |

Mindlog: I think I will try this too since you say its evidence-based. Though I lost my Sis almost 7 years ago. But I still miss her whenever her thoughts come to my mind. |

MISTAICEY02288: We were taught that in my undergrad's grief and loss counselling course. You can Google it up and I have used it severally with clients. |
Re: How Do I Cope With The Loss Of My Sister? by MISTAICEY02288(m): 6:34pm On May 12, 2023 |
Mindlog: Thanks very much, i will look it up. What if one also use that letter to say a prayer for those the deceased left behind as well. Something like telling the deceased to watch over the ones he/she left behind... Does that work too? |
Re: How Do I Cope With The Loss Of My Sister? by Mindlog: 6:56pm On May 12, 2023 |
MISTAICEY02288: It is personal to you, you can use that letter any way that makes you feel connected to that loved one...our process is so unique to us. We never forget those who meant so much to us and when we are gone, there are those who would remember the beautiful moments they had with us before our transition. |

Sorry about your loss. It is okay to grief. It is okay to cry, Whenever you feel like crying, go ahead & cry, it help you release the negative emotions - it is a healing process. if you want to pretend to be strong, you bottle it up & & delay the healing process. May God comfort & strengthen you & the entire family. RoyalBlu: |

Yours is a matter of weeks . Mine's been 5years and I still see her in my dreams, think of her when I see other women( I'll be like this lady resemble my late elder sister...or if she were alive shey I would not be feeling this empty about having an elder sister and sole adviser). As time goes by, I come dey do jobs, try to dey forget, wear myself out, made more friends to give me joy...and Here I am giving you a pat on your back and urging you to get very busy and follow my pattern 1 Like |
