Subject: losing your sister

I lost my 12 year old sister to leukemia a few years ago, and even though we had some forewarning, it was the most difficult period in my life. Surround yourself with a strong support system. Begin now collecting happy photographs and surround youself with all the positive influences she has had in you life. She (I am pretty sure) would want you to remember her as she was before she got sick. And if you need someone to talk to, maybe there is some way we can get in touch.
