hold onto your memories
It is possible to enshrine lost loved ones and forget that they did things like pee and giggle.  (If you pee and giggle at the same time, is that piggling?)

Sympathy
I have sympathy for you and your family. Your brother and father both know how you feel. I lost friends and boyfriends myself because of Cancer and other sicknesses. I found it hard to forget after 4 years passed. But then I had to get my mind off of the people because it was destroying my own life. Only time can help.I don't know how I would feel if my younger brother passed away? Probably the same way.

Melody,

Oh, Melody, I'm so so sorry this happened.
There are no words that can truly ease this pain, but just remember in your heart and mind that you will never get over this, but you WILL get through it. I promise. Oh, and your brother did/does know how much you loved him. Even IF he didn't during life (doubtful) he definately does now. Stay strong.

I am so sorry for your loss
I can't imagine how I would feel if this happened to me other then totally helpless and devastated. I never knew my real father. I came home after school when I was 15 to the news that he had committed suicide the night before. I lived 3,000 miles from him and was supposed to meet him that very summer. I still haven't gotten over the loss and its been 25 years. My prayers are with you.

Melodystar,

This is the first time I have ever read your blogs.  I am so deeply sorry for the losses of your brother Christopher and your father.  I will keep you in my heart, thoughts, and prayers.

If there's anything I can do for you, please don't be afraid to ask.  God bless and keep you.

Mel,
When my beloved cat died, I found an excellent article on the internet for dealing with loss.

Losing a Loved One (by Nick Halpin PhD). You can google it to read the entire article, but I wanted to share one small passage, as it explains grief in a way I've never seen before but feel has much validity.

The author said: "Each one of us contains both an adult and a child. As the adult seeks to make sense of loss and tries to do all the appropriate and sensible things, alongside this is the emotional inner child, with a different agenda, who usually feels confused and abandoned. While the adult struggles bravely on, the dependent inner child is desperate for consolation. So that grieving is often a seesawing between these two parts of ourselves, as we try to be reasonable, but we actually feel at sea, lost and awash in anguish."

Melody...
I'm sorry for your loss. You should confer with MiaElla, she is going through the exact same thing right now. I am sure you could be a comfort to each other.
