When you lose a brother or sister your whole world changes - your grasp on the past, your experience of the present and your hopes for the future.

Your grief becomes a part of you, but bereaved siblings are often forgotten by society. So this site has been created especially for bereaved siblings to connect you with others, offer you support and friendship and provide a space where you can honour your sibling.

WALK TO REMEMBER 2012 (Sunday, 1st April 2012 at 11am)

A time when we can remember our siblings and children alongside other bereaved siblings and parents.

This is our third Walk to Remember: we will meet at the corner of Alexandra Avenue & Anderson Street (on the Yarra side, opposite Royal Botanic Gardens) and will walk along the Yarra on Capital City Trail (from Anderson Street and back). After the walk and ceremonies, we will have a BBQ lunch.

Reflections on Grief, Family and Time

For My Dear Sister Nat

Standing here in the silence alone, recalling now the pain and suffering you’d shown
You were in such great despair and it saddens me to think you thought that no one gave a care
You were such a very beautiful young soul and your untimely passing has touched us all
Your sadness caused you so much heartache and pain, so in this life you felt you could no longer remain
Your passing has caused us such great despair because Natalie Dearest Sister we really did care
So sorry we didn’t better show this to you, so sorry that you had felt so blue
