    If you have a sibling, near or far, please reach out to them and tell them you love them today. A hug, a kind word - do this for me.

    Last week, I celebrated my 41st birthday on Monday and became an only child on Thursday. I will love my younger brother forever, and didn't get a last chance to tell him I loved him.

    SheFly, I am so sorry about your loss. I unexpectedly lost my older brother 18 years ago and wished I had reached out to him. You just never know how much time you have with the ones you love.

    Cathy, I am so sorry about your brother. What you said really affected me; I have just recently reconnected with my brother, who is 10 years younger than me.
    I will call him tonight.

    Shefly, I'm so sorry for your loss.

    I too just turned 41 and have a younger brother. I cannot imagine losing him even though we are separated by thousands of miles. Thank you for the reminder to stay in touch - I'll give him a call today.

    (((((SheFly)))) I'm so sorry. I lost two brother in laws last year; and my sister in law is fighting cancer as we speak. I can't imagine losing my sister. You have my sympathy and hang in there and let yourself grieve.

    I lost a brother long ago.
    I hope you find inner peace and strength to get through this awful time.

    SheFly - I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have made it a goal for 2009 to reach out to those near and dear to me and let them know how much they mean to me but thank you for the reminder.

    You and your family are in my prayers. ((hugs))
