Profile Information:

About Me:: My name is Kylie. I am 20 years old and I am about to enter my 3rd year of college. I want to become a nurse. I enjoy going to beaches, concerts, hanging out with friends, and baseball games.
About my Loss:: 9 days ago my little brother was hit and killed by a train. He was only 17 years old He died on my mothers birthday and just 2 days before his 18th birthday. He died the day beore he receieved his high school diploma. He was walking on the side of the railroad with his Ipod in. On top of this all, my grandmother passed away 17 days before. My brother was saddened by her death and could not sleep a lot after her death and was acting disoriented before his death. So, really, I am dealing with 2 losses, but my brother's is clearly by far more to deal with for me, especially since my grandma was 87 years old and we knew she was going to pass for awhile. I don't know how to deal with the grief, guilt, lonliness, feeling that my family is ruined, etc. I would love to find people who have been through losing a sibling and can help me out a little.

I lost my dad 3 months before my husband died from a motorcycle wreck late last August. It was strange knowing my husband at the time when with me to my dad's funeral service. Then, 1,2, and 3 it seemed my husband had left me too. I understand your pain very much. It has been almost a year, and I can tell you it will get better. Pray daily, eat right, and focus on things that will help you feel better. I'm painting rooms in my house, and that is helping me. Let me know if you ever need to talk.

Hi Kylie,

I lost my husband on 12th June...on my birthday. Losing a loved one is always very difficult. Grieving is a process which takes time...as long as u want to. Our loved one was loaned to us by God and now God is ready to take him back. Nothing can take our pain away, but if we continue hurting we will become ill. We have to ask God to give us the strength to deal with our pain and loss, Think about all the happy times u had with ur little brother.
