Losing my sister last May to cancer has been the hardest thing I've ever had to live through. My remaining siblings, mother and I got a Christmas present from Sheila that she made her husband promise to give us after she was gone. He made disks and disks of every picture and video that was ever taken of/by her and our family events. Mike had these beautiful jewelry boxes made with crystal tops that had a picture of Sheila etched into the crystal. That's how he "wrapped" the videos. I will cherish the pictures forever and one day my son will get them and the box as an heirloom in memory and honor of his aunt, my sister, Sheila...<br />On the days when I just don't think I can stand the pain, I tell myself the same thing: feeling pain is better than feeling nothing at all...<br />Thank you, Brooke, for making yourself so vulnerable as to bare your heart like this. While it is good for you, you are helping others cope with their own losses.<br />Blessings to you and yours,<br />TamaraAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371850106582199828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7286080055976492536.post-64916735747549588682011-01-13T20:13:47.285-06:002011-01-13T20:13:47.285-06:00I can relate to the music thoughts.

My dad walked in to hear one of the songs from his service playing and left in tears. It was just too hard.
