“Grief I’ve learned is really just love.
It’s all the love you want to give but cannot.
All of that unspent love
gathers up in the corner of your eyes,
the lump in your throat and the hollow part of your chest.
Grief is just loved with no place to go.”

I am so sorry for your immense loss. Hoping love and support will ease your pain and that happy memories filled with immeasurable love will bring you and your family comfort in time. Thanks for posting that beautiful poem on grief. I lost my husband 3 1/2 years ago from cancer - and those words ring true. Take care of yourself! Sending you love and best wishes from New Zealand.

It is not easy. I cry at least once a day since my love passed away last September. When I do, I think of my mom. Ninety nine years old, she lost my dad twenty one years ago. For the first three years she would cry every day. But she lived on to see her great grand children and finds much joy there. So sorry to hear that you have lost your brother.
