coping with death of sister from cancer at the age of 35

My sister died from cervical cancer at the age of 35 last May.  She left behind 2 lovely kids who at the time were 1 and 3 years old.  I find it hard to cope with this loss and keep recalling events from the time she was diagnosed.  She found out in December she had cervical cancer but died by May.  She did not even get any time from the date of her diagnosis to the time she died to spent quality time with her family as she was so set on getting as much chemotherapy as she could to increase her chances of survival.

I know people say it will get easier but at the minute, I cannot see any light at the end of the tunnel.  I think it makes it so much harder that she was so young and left 2 young children behind.  I just want my sister back.  How will I cope.

  • So sad Jacqueline, I lost my girlfriend aged 22 years old about a week ago, the pain is awful, can't believe your sister left behind 2 children, it's a very difficult time for everyone but I think you can find the strength to go on, pull the strength from them two children to keep going on. We all miss our loved ones that have passed and is all part of the grieving process, but the support from my friends & family has been  amazing, i hope you have the same support, stay strong!
