- 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.

Watching your parents grieve the death of your sibling
As sad as I am that my brother passed away, the hardest part of dealing with it is watching my parents. The people that were once your rock are no longer your rock. I find myself asking my mom to do things that she constantly forgets, and its easy stuff and shes barely working while i work and go to school. I saw a text on my mom's phone from my dad that said "I am going to be miserable for the rest of my life." I wanted to cry. Aren't I enough to not be miserable for? I know its hard…

My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child
I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Hi Kylie,

Keep on keeping on! your loss has brought me to tears as many have on this forum, but it is healthy for me. As every day that passes with my loss, I am a bit stronger. So will you too!
It took me almost a year to feel positive about life. I felt regret at first about not spending enough time with him by ourselves. My one daughter is disabled, which left me spending alot of my time concerned about her health. Now, i know he knew I did what had to be done. It will be a year August 20th, so pray for me that day. God has a plan for us, so we should listen to his calling friend. God bless!
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.
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.
