hugs and more hugs to you sweet girl. I cant even imagine what you are going through. If songs help...I have always loved this song by Josh Groban.

JOSH GROBAN LYRICS "To Where You Are"
Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memory's so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be (?)
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen
As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are my
Forever love
Watching me from up above
And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave
Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
WHAT I KNOW NOW A…B…C.G.A…
NANA NANANA NANANA NANA NANA NA NA NA A…B…C.G.A…
I USED TO SIT AND I WOULD ASK MYSELF A…B…
HOW DID IT HAPPEN C.G.A…
I OFTEN USED TO WONDER A…B…
WAS I TO BLAME C.G.A…
ALTHOUGH I KNEW WITHIN MYSELF A…B…
THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO C.G.A…
ALTHOUGH I KNEW I WAS NOT GUILTY A…B…
WELL IT HURT JUST THE SAME C.G.A…
WISH I COULD TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME
TO THE WAY IT WAS BEFORE I MET YOU
WISH I COULD TURN BACK THE HANDS OF THE CLOCK
TO THE WAY IT WAS BEFORE.
IT ONLY I’D KNOWN THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASIER TO FORGET YOU

BUT NOW I KNOW THAT SADNESS C…
COMES TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF
SO IF YOU THINK OF SOMETHING TO SAY
PLEASE LET IT BE KNOWN
IF YOU THINK YOU CAN HELP SOMEHOW
I’M WILLING TO BE SHOWN
AS I LIE HERE IN CONFUSION AND DOUBT
I NEED SOME REASSURANCE
WALLOWING IN SORROW IS NO EASY WAY OUT
IT’S ONLY GOOD FOR A LITTLE WHILE
chorus
OH YES I KNOW HOW HARD I MUST TRY
AND HOLD OUT TO THE END
WHEN I KNOW THAT I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN
AND AS THE YEARS IN BETWEEN GO BY
WELL THEY WILL BE AS NOTHING
TO THE TIME THAT WE’LL HAVE THEN
BACK AGAIN JUST LIKE IT WAS BEFORE

WELL EVERYONE TELLS ME SO
THEY’VE OPENED UP THAT DOOR
NOW I KNOW I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN
AND ONLY I CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME
COS THOUGH YOU CANNOT BE HERE WITH ME NOW
BABY I STILL LOVE YOU
Just adding my personal words. You are one brave lady and he would be proud. So sorry for your loss.
ah purps
Dear Purps; This little poem helped me thru my mother's passing. I'll change it to fit your dear brother; He meant so very much to us that nothing we could say Could tell the sadness in our hearts as we think of him today But the sweetness of his memory time can neither dim nor fade As we remember again and are thankful for all the good years that we had. I hope this helps in some small way. Love Arwen
Deeply saddened over your loss, Purps!
My older brother, then 29, ended his life - but his death also killed my mother (she died 4 years later having never got over it), which affected my dad who died four months later, which affected my sister and I!
Suicide doesn't just affect the person who did it. It has ramifications for the entire family!
Love and ((((((((hugs)))))))),

Ian, that is so true....and Purple, I think my sister wanted to be with my Mother too. She only accepted that my Mother did indeed committed suicide about a year ago. I came to terms with that 18 years ago but she just didnt want to believe it.
I will never get over my mother and my sister's suicides, ever , but ....... I am like you I try to go on, be the best I can be and cherish my family as deeply as I can.
I wasnt so angry when my sister killed herself as when my Mother did, because I learned alot , reading about suicide, from those who tried but did not succeed. It kind of helped me understand , the best way that one can, of why my sister chose the path she took. She was just tired I think , and had a really bad weekend, add to that the JW cult upbringing, our home life, abusive hubby, etc. etc. and well, she was just tired.
I miss Ginger so much , I still breakdown and cry a few times a week, and usually it is when I hear a certain song.
Ones that make me think of my sister are: "I miss you a little " , by John Michael Montgomery,,,,,,,,,,,"Angel Flying too close the ground" by Willie Nelson, "Tonite I want to cry" Keith Urban, " Who'd you be today" by Kenny Chesney, just to name a few.
