Subject: thankyou

Kayla, I am so so sorry for your loss. My little sister was killed in a car crash on 25th August. She was 12 and I am 20. there were nearly 8 years between us but we were very close, and I have been searching for ages to find someone who can understand what it's like to suddenly lose a beautiful wonderful little sister. I'm the eldest in my family and I have 2 younger brothers, and like you I feel like I have to be strong for them, but it is so hard. I wasn't allowed to see my sister after the crash, so I didn't get to hold her hand one last time, but I hope that wherever she is, she knows how much I love her and always will. I feel like my parents tell me quite a lot about their feelings and sometimes they give me too much to bear. It's all very difficult, but I just wanted you to know that there is someone out there who knows what it's like, and to say thankyou so much for letting me know I'm not completely on my own. I will be thinking of you.

Grace. x
