    So sad for you and your family. Treasure all the happy memories of the two of you and celebrate her life and her achievements. Fight to raise awareness of how this horrible disease affects families and we will one day help other sisters to survive their diagnosis. My sister has secondary breast cancer and we know time spent with her is very precious now.

    Hi there and welcome. I'm really sorry to see why you're here but glad you've found the community who will listen, help and support you along the way. 35 is no age at all to leave this world, far too young to be taken. I struggle with the fact my dad was 64, but on here I've also learnt there are many younger and also older that have also left our sides. Life is so cruel. Take care x

    Hi Scorpio78,

    Im going through exactly the same thing as you although I am a few months down the line in this grieving process.

    I lost my only sister on the 8th July this year. We were so close she was like a mum and best friend to me. Secondary breast cancer was the cause, she was only 40. My sister left a husband and 2 boys aged 7 & 10 and they are so brave. I cry at least 4 times every day. I have honestly never felt such pain from this grief I felt as if half of me has gone. Life will never be the same. We have to all keep putting one foot in front of the other for now x

    I am so sorry about your sister. I lost my mum to cancer at 64 without any warning, and now I am going to lose my 44 year old big brother who due to his severe mental disabilities has never even really had a chance of a life, I can understand the anger

    So so sorry for your loss i also lost my beautiful twin sister in march of this year. I cant come to terms with why this has happened to our family its only by reading others stories that we realise just how many lives are effected by this vile disease. Its difficult to share heart break with those close to you as thay are also feeling their own pain. I do hope you find some comfort frome here. I personaly write on my sisters facebook wall i feel it helps to write my feelings down instead of voicing them out loud as its the pain of words spoken that brings the pain of the reality that she is no longer here. The loss will always be here but so will the memories x
