Hello. New here, wondering if anyone else is dealing with the loss of a sibling and is the only surviving child? I'm only 32. Look forward to hearing from others in this situation x

Hi
Beverly,
I am sorry to hear
about the loss of your brother, whether he was younger or older, or if the
death was sudden or anticipated, grief
is a natural response to losing someone you care about. There's no right or
wrong way to grieve, and everyone experiences it differently. Many people find it helpful to talk to others,
sharing your thoughts and feelings can be beneficial. Beverly, as well as
reaching out to the community you may want to speak to us at the Information
and Support Line Tel: 0800 090 2309. We are open Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, Saturdays, 11am to 5pm,
and special days (Mother’s day, Father’s day, Christmas and Boxing Day). Our
Freephone number is 0800 090 2309.
I have also included a link below to a specific
section on our website that may help:
