I just wish I could have sibling rivarly.....There is an alarming amout of issues with sibling's. Which will only bring about more problems for the (Family). So I have learned the hard way I must say. Having been the littles sister as a child growing up I only had 1 brother. With the special needs that he required I learned early the ramafications of no sibling at all. And I was taught the way you treat your sibling. He was removed from my house when I was 11 and he 19 months older. And as the years went buy so did he. He died close to my birthday when I turned 37.
The authorities found him dead on a street in the Panhandle of Texas. I beleive he was trying to find me and I didn't know. He spent alot of his years, in the MHMR system and in prison. He was released on parole and I feel he was trying to find me. He almost made it too. So please,on behalf of the millions people such as my self and those that were the only child, build a bridge to each other so you will always know where the other is at all times. Treat each other as you would if you knew they were going to die at midnight. Really it goes that deep,and most wait till its to late such as I did.
