It sucks Barb. It makes no sense and it's harder on those that remain. I'm old enough to have gone through this many times. You'd think it would be easier as we age. For me, it isn't. It does get simpler though and believe it or not, you will be feeling better as time goes by. Humans know too much though. It ain't fair. We're here though and at MS IM too. Charlie

Barb, My grandma told me when I was much younger and my grandpa passed away. Always think a good thought when you think of them and the smile on your face will be them. So your never alone. I have never forgot my grandpa because of that. sorry for your loss

Barb, My heart goes out to you. These are difficult days. I promise it will get easier. When my Daddy died I was sure I would never smile or be happy again. Like you, I didn't know where I was suppose to be or what I was suppose to do. I was sure that his death would be the end of me too. I was wrong......I can think of him now and the pain of the loss is replaced with warm and wonderful thoughts of him. I still miss him and will every day of my life but the tears don't come as often. I feel it will be that way for you too. You were a wonderful sister, Barb....and Pat loved you dearly.....may you find some comfort in that. Love, Jacks

Barbara there is nothing I can say that will take your pain away but in a few days or weeks when the pain starts to subside you will see subtle proof that her spirit lives on. Maybe you will hear a song on the radio that you both loved... Maybe a movie you both shared together. Maybe you will dream of her and she will rest your fears that life does go on... All of those things happened to me after losing Patty and I couldnt believe how my fears and sorrow lifted... there isnt a day that goes by that I dont think about her... She is not gone Barb just away... love ya girl Ree

I am very sorry for your loss Barbara and wish there was something I could say that would make you feel better. The rest are right though, it will take time and just hold on to the wonderful memories. You will always have those. Take care of yourself.

Barbara, I love you and know that strong heart of yours will help pull you through, BUT in the meantime......there's only one little thing we can do for you and that's be there when you need us. "She is not gone dear, just away" SISTERS "Friendships bloom and friendships end, But a sister is an eternal friend" "Love defies any distance that might separate sisters" Reflect on these dearest Barbara, and know that Pat will ALWAYS be right there in that big heart of yours. And in time, thoughts of her will bring wonderful, warm feelings that you'll be able to smile about. With warmest sympathy, EDNA

Buried my brother once. Siblings are a different game than parents. Parents you know all your life you'll bury. Siblings? Uh uh. And especially not within a year's warning. Barbara, you want to shoot the shit about it I'm at Jayacat2@aol.com. You want to scream and hate it and be in confusion and swear at every God there is and have someone understand your faith isn't lost? You just want to cry? I will understand. I do know what you're going through. And I will see you through it, if you'll let me.

I am sorry I was not there as I had hoped to be. I knew you and Pat and I know how much you each ment to each other. I know Pat and me talked a few times about death and I think she was like me more worried about you and the rest of the family. Pats ok she is no longer in pain. You will be also. Time will less the pain. Good thoughts will come and make you warm inside. Its ok to cry...Its ok to scream and its ok to be lost for a wile. She would want you to smile when you think of her not cry. Thats the way I would like people to think of me. I know Pat had God in her life, I know she is in Heaven and all is beautiful. There is not a lot we can take with us when we leave. But one thing we do take with us and leave here for others. Its Love Brabara. That you two had. You take care you have my number and you know I am here and love you. God Bless you and the rest of the family!

BarbaraG, Very sorry to hear of your loss. The pain is a tough thing to understand. No one can touch the way you feel right now. I lost my brother 4 years ago, he was only 48 at the time. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of my brother..... He will always be in my heart and will live there forever. Your sister will be in yours..... ...... Dan H You are in my thoughts

BarbaraG, So sorry to hear of your loss..As everyone has said, life doesn't make sense sometimes and although we can't always understand why things happen we can only assume there is a reason although I'm sure the reasons are unclear. We are all here for you and know we hold you deep in our hearts and prayers. Darleen
