I have been quiet. Still stunned. Still hiding from the loss. It is my weakness and I own it. I looked up to my sister. She was 10 yrs older than me. I thought she was beautiful. She literally took care of me until she moved out when I was nearly 8 yrs old. I felt abandoned. Things weren't good at home and I felt like all my protectors were gone. Fast forward to my teens.I kept hearing my Mother telling me that Carol didn't want me 'copying her' and trying to be like her.. I thought that was ridiculous. It even was about how I wore my hair. Because of other things, we didn't see each other often. I talked to my sister more this past year than I had since the mid 90's..I was excited to be able to fix my car soon and go visit her.... I am so glad we had a meaningful last year. Big Hugs for Dennis!!
