Hello,
My sister killed herself, and it still hurts our family. My momma is taking it the worst. Our daddy is a minister, and tries to comfort us, and encourages us all to be strong. I have 5 children of my own, and my momma Bless her heart sits and cries all the time.
I love her so, and share her tears, and her pain. My sister was and will always be my very best friend. I tell my momma that, and I'm very close to her as well.
Thank you for reading, and Happy Mother's Day to all Mother's out there, and may the Lord be with you all.
Warmly,
Quinn

Quinn....so sorry about the loss of your sister. I can not tell you that I have experienced this, but daughter lost her half brother last August, due to a motocycle accident. She was also very close to him According to her Grief counselor. She writes letters to Bret. This seems to help her alot. Just to talk to him. Also she just got her memorial tattoo for her brother. Yes Quinn....she does get mad at him for not listening to people about going on thus advanced ride, because he was a beginner. All sorts of emotions flood you. For you mother just stay close and keep your sisters memory alive. We do for Bret. I wish there was more for me to say to you to help, but words....well sometimes they are just words. Look for little signs from her. I know Bret leaves them for Ashley. God Bless Quinn and you family.

I am so sorry for the loss of your sister. I also lost my brother Russell last Aug to a motorcycle accident. we was very close and still today it is very hard to deal with it. My mom was just like yours and kinda still is we keep her busy and keep family events going all the time. my mom is always pulling out my brothers childhood pictures or his school work or going to his grave site and even emeorial site weekly. she has to learn to deal with it on hher own time you can't force her or even try to feel her pain. I allow my mom to cry, scream or whatever she needs to do to feel better. we are coming up my my brothers 1 yr and my grams they was 3 weeks apart from one another in their passing so it is hard on all of us. I went an got a memorial tattoo also for my brother and everytime i look at it i feel good. I love planting at his sites for him everything i do helps me not forget the pain but lesson it some it makes me feel like i am still doing stuff for him. I hope in time your mom will open up more to you and talk she seems like she is holding alot in and that isn't good especially on you guys.

Holly,
Thank you for your thoughtful words, and kind advice. It is how I feel inside. My Daddy doesn't get it, and my poor Momma suffering everyday since Julie's death. It is so hard right now. My kids miss her too and my husband was best friends with him.
Nothing makes Momma laugh anymore, she talks of staying in the cemetary like a mad woman. I cry Holly so much that my Momma will be ok, I really fear for her. I thank you for listening, for reading and caring. Many don't around here I can tell. But you are so kind. There are others that are so wise and have given me some good advice and thank them so much!!!
God Bless you, & be with You always Holly
Blessings,
Quinn
