Sister died too young

My sister died last month. Breast cancer spread too her brain.  It was awful too see. We were so close  , I cried so much on the night she died, but since then, iv not cried at all and I feel terrible.  What's wrong with me . I don't feel like she's gone ....

  • Hello Glenrothestown

    I'm sorry to hear that your sister recently died. Grief is a natural process, but it can be devastating and it's not uncommon for people to experience a very wide range of emotions. I think many of our members here who have lost a loved one will agree that there's nothing "wrong with you" because you've not cried since the night she died.

    We all cope with grief in many different ways but one thing that helps many people is to talk to someone about your loss. I'd really encourage you to get in touch with a charity called Cruse who offer free bereavement support and counselling. 

    Please remember that you're not alone and as painful as this grief is, what you're experiencing is a normal part of the grieving process. 

    Best wishes,
