How do you tell a child about a dead sibling that they will never meet? My daughter is 5 1/2 months old - her oldest brother has been dead for almost (27th of this month) two years. She will see the pictures on the wall and the videos of all THREE brothers when they were smaller. This is something SO sad to me... she will never know Rob...
How can I still make him the big brother?

Ya know I feel the same way about my granddaughter. How does she get to know her daddy. Pictures and memories are all we have. But in 1977 I had a stillborn. Her name is Denise' and she was Wayman's sister. I never held her, or had pictures, or even knew what she looked like because of circumstances beyond my control, but when March 19 came around each year we celebrated Denise' even if it was just a discussion about her. Thinking about what she would have looked like, or what she would have grown up to be. Then when Wayman died I told myself he could finally meet her and on March 19th of this year on that very day I recieved in the mail my sons belongings and I believe he made it happen that way to let me know that they were now finally together brother and sister. We just keep them alive in our hearts and I think we can let anyone know about them. Your daughter will know her brother and remember all the nice stuff she won't feel the pain of losing him.

BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
