Hi there
Just wanted to send you hugs.. I lost my sister to cancer 2 months ago and still don't know how my niece handled it as well as she did/is -although she is 17 so was fully aware of what was happening.
Im sure you will help each other through this terrible time and make your sister proud ..take care of yourself-6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.50 -
Just wanted to say thinking of you all at this horrible time.
Would suggest making a memory box over the next few weeks with some positive, happy reminders of the years they did share together. May help in the future when the pain is less raw.

I am sorry to hear about your sister Zara, had to tell my kids when they were 15 and 9 that their dad had died, it was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. The only advice I can give is to be calm and patient, kids react in all different ways. The important thing is that he knows he has someone like you to hold him and be there for him .
Keeping you and yours in my prayers. xx grebe"To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill" Sun Tzu0 -
