Hello everyone.  I lost my beautiful older sister, 37 years, in a tragic scooter accident that took her life in an instant.  This happened a little over three weeks ago.  I am just trying to figure out how one even attempts to move past this grief.  I am completely heartbroken.  She was my biggest fan and the best friend I ever had.  I know I must go on and choose happiness, as that is what she would have wanted. I just don't exactly know how to do that.  She was too young. It's just so unfair.

I lost my 18 year old baby sister in a car accident on August 25 of last year.  She had just graduated high school and was moving to go to the same college as me, we always dreamed about sharing that part of our future together.  I had so many big plans for us.  I feel like I am so lost now, I have many people that want to talk to me and see me but I just want my sister.  She is my best friend.  My go to person for anything and it's so hard for me now because I am just forced to do things on my own now.

I also struggle so much watching the way my parents are now.  I just wish everything could go back to normal but I know it never will.  I try everyday to stay strong.  I graduated from college in may on dean's list and everyone seems to think it is some big accomplishment and I just feel like what else was I supposed to do.  I try to hide it but I am miserable every second of the day, and I don't know who to turn to.

Hi Sherry my name is Libby I lost my Sister in a car wreck. also my sister in law to Cancer. I have lost many people in my life and have too much experience with grief. Please know that your not alone there are others who are going through the same thing, It sounds like you do not have as much experience in Losing someone if I could offer a few words of advice you said you fight back the tears in order to be strong someone you loved has died you were strong for her when she was here sherry it's ok not to be strong now you need to feel your pain the longer you avoid it the longer it takes to work through it, please allow your selves to feel what you feel don't think you should feel any certan way just know your grief is very personal it is yours and no one else's and how ever you feel is fine. One thing I have definetly learned from too many losses is how personel each person's life and death is, please try not to feel like you are partly responsible for her loss like you could have done more her journey in this life was her own she wanted you to be a part of that and it sounds like you had a wonderful friendship. I truly believe that we all come here to experience those things we wish to and when we have our time is done.I am sorry for your loss and hope the memory of having what sounds like such a true friend in your life comforts you through this difficult time.

Hi Felicia here last time I commented was a month after my sister died.  It has now been a little over 6 months and I feel like I am running on a tredmill to get away from feelings of pain.  I am at work I have pictures of her I watch her video and think of her all the time.  So hard because my husband lost his mother and father last year as well. I feel so alone in my grief.  I have no other siblings.  My husband has 6 my sister had no children I have two.  Mimi I want to tell you I close my eyes and try to hear her voice.  It is so hard to be with out them.  I understand your grief.  I feel very selfish running run not spending as much time as I can should with my family.  I miss her so much her memorial is in August I am Jewish so we have a memorial after a year.  I feel the loss when I speak to my parents.  My mother has lost so much it is a hurt so deep to see yhour parents lose a child.

Mimi I read your words and they echo my life now without my wonderful sister...I lost my bestest part of me my soulmate....it is coming to 9 months and still same....I turned to faith first but now for some reason I can't get any solace there - I cannot pray no more.. I feel I do not want anything to do with god....I hope there is a place after we all leave as I am so desperate to be with her but deep down I am not a believer... I just want to have more life with her...it is a selfish though rather than a real faith...so no comfort really...

if not for my kids I would like to sleep for ever and go....I desperately miss her so much...still every day every minute... I feel her loss everywhere I go and look...

Today I sit at work, trying not to think so much about my sister. But it's very hard. Who known or who thinks something like this could happen. I hear her voice everyday in my head, trying not to forget it and her big loud crazy laugh:) LOL. I don't know how to put into words how close we were. We are the only family we have. I think now what am I going to do now. I blame myself sometimes, thinking if I called her that night she could still be here. we talked everyday. Asking myself why she didn't fight harder to stay with me. She knew were all we had, was eachother, now what. I just want to hold her and tell her I love her more than anything in the world and she is the best sister I could ever have. Hoping she knows how much I adored her from birth. I prayed for a sister for a long time, at first all i had was brothers. Than she finally came. Best day of my life. Sometimes i feel like I am drowning and I think to myself honsetly if I didn't have my kids I would leave this earth and be with her. But I have my kids to think about and have to stay for.This week on sunday 02/19/12 at 8:30pm she will have been gone for 1mth. 1mth since I heard her voice and it just means more and more time will past with out her. I think is still possible, could this be really true. I't can't she will call and tell it was the worst joke she could ever play on me. But nothing happens. I can't put into words how much i miss her, need her or love her. Jackie is my baby, not only is she my sister, she is like my baby. I raised her when our mother left her. So I lost my baby and sister. My stomach is in knots. Jackie I want you to come back. But you haven't, the phone hasn't rung and you are on the other end. Love you always and forever.

thankyou denice.I'm so glad I found this group.a place where I can express my loss,and hopefully help to comfort others who are also hurting.take care:)

Beneat the ancient apricot,beside the yellow heirloom rose,I laid my little sister sweet,into eternal hushed repose.And in this secret place I made,the grave was known to me alone.To keep her from those shadowed eyes,those wolves that took her from her home.In fading light,just her and I,here in this place where we had grown.Just her and I,one on each side,and now just waiting all alone.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
