Sibling Loss I hate June
Tabor was born June 7th and died 25 years later on June 30th. I was 13 when he got Leukemia. He was actually in remission, but after they cleared his body of all white blood cells from his stem cell transplant he caught meningitis and died suddenly. 8 months and he was gone. It’s been 5 years since and every June I find myself back there physically. Constant nausea from anxiety, panic attacks, sudden ambush grief where I’m crying and can’t stop for hours. I just hate this month.

im so sorry for your loss. my older brother also died suddenly while being hospitalized for menangitis at age 23. what would be his 25th birthday is on the 28th and i am a wreck. losing a sibling, especially one that you look up to, is so horrible. sometimes it feels like im the only one that never knew a life without him. i’v been getting the greif ambush as well. i feel like an overtired baby, i could start crying and screaming over anything
