The Little Things

[madison1101]

I am a bit melancholy this weekend. My brother died in October. He was a huge sports fan, especially football, especially our Philadelphia Eagles. They are in the playoffs, and my family is having a party Saturday night to watch the game and celebrate my older son's 29th birthday. I miss my brother at times like these. I missed him on his birthday in December, and at Christmas something fierce. But, I can't help missing him at times like this as well. Does the ache ever end?

Hi,

I know what you are going through with your grief. I lost my daughter in 2002 (that is her pic on my avator). The pain does ease a little but I find that it comes back hard whenever there is a special date coming up such as a birthday or anniversary or christmas.

Have you thought of creating a memorial to your brother? I have one for my daughter Stacia at http://remembered-forever.org/stacia1/. You might want to check it out and maybe create something similar for your brother. Although only do it if you are ready to talk about him and think about him, it may be too soon for you right now.

I know how you feel, and DeniseCollins04 has a good point. It's been tough for me as the anniversary of my brother's passing is almose here, and I did the same thing. I sat up til this morning and created a special post in his honor in my blog. I still hurt, but it did ease things a little.
If you ever need to talk, please feel free to pm me anytime.
Our prayers are with you
God bless,
Alana
