Siblings of a brother or sister who have died deal with this loss in different ways. The younger ones know that something bad has happened to their family, but have a hard time understanding, and expressing their feelings. Some are afraid of another loss so they shut down. Thus the fighting, and tense behavior. Some feel the devastation of their parents but are either afraid, or feel helpless to react. This is all normal. Most of the time it eases with time, and patience. When you lose a child, and have other children it's important to talk about it, and give the siblings a chance to express their feelings. Every situation is different. You just do the best you can.

had a hard time tonight, my daughter is starting middle school and it made me miss Dylan so much he would have graduated high school this year and im letting my frustration and what now appears to be alot of anger get the better of me and taking it out on my other kids, they act like they hate each other and that makes me so sad that they can lose their brother and it not change how they treat each other.... they are 11 and 6 i just dont know what to do anymore

A friend of mines son was killed in a car accident on Mon. He was a good friend to both of my sons. I was determined to not let it get the best of me. Try as I may It slapped me right up side my head. I feel so bad for his mother and family. Strange I have been through this twice and I haven't got one word to comfort her. His father called me the day he died and asked me where I went to identify my oldest son's body. I felt like I had been hit in the head with a shovel. I know it's never going to stop. I know that this is life, but I don't like it. I will do whatever I can to help this family. I feel that it is my duty to be there for them no matter how much it hurts. Being here has taught me so much. I'm sad there are so many of us who have to travel this road. I pray my strength holds out. I think of all of you often, and hope somehow, someway, someday we all find some sort of Peace.

Thank you all for your lovely comments.  I don't feel so alone.  I send all of you my sympathies and love as well. Everyday is a new battle and journey for us all.

Linda, I pray that you will have a happy outcome with your grandchildren. I hate to think that an absent father will have preference over the grandma who has been there for the children. My sincere prayers are with you.

Rachel, we are all here for you and for one another. You'll learn that we need you, too. I sent you a friend request which should show up on your page. Your grief is so new and we all understand what that feels like. The others are right: the pain never goes away, we just learn how to live with it. Knowing our children are happy keeps us going, as does the thought of being with them again. Peace to you.

Linda my or prayers are with you. I lost my only child in a car accident also. I sent you a friend request so you can check your page.
Rachelle I am so sorry for your loss. I am sure the grief counseling will help you deal with the horror that we all face here everyday. the pain doesn't ever go away we just have to learned how to live our lives in a way that would make our kids proud.
As I read the posts here my heart goes out to everyone. I cling to the hope that I will see my son again someday and that he is at peaceful and still experiencing amazing things. I miss him so much every second. love to everyone

I still believe in the prayer system. God is good. Please pray for me tomorrow my circle of unfortunate friends.

Thank you Kim, God is with us all.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
