In this week’s episode of The Surviving Siblings Podcast we hear Angie’s poignant exploration of loss and resilience through her personal stories of cancer loss, sudden death, and multi-layered grief. Angie lost some of the people closest to her in life, eventually leaving her to feel lost and alone. She didn’t feel as though she could turn to her family for support as they were struggling with their own grief and her friends simply didn’t know what to do.
Angie’s daughter, Gracie was the one that gave Angie a reason to deal with her grief and find some sense of normalcy. She knew she had still had to show up for Gracie and put her best foot forward for her daughter’s sake. Angie’s story shines such a light on the significance of grace in grief, creating support systems, and the pursuit of positive choices in the face of adversity.

As we’ve discussed in previous episodes, often the grief journey after losing a sibling can lead to finding a meaningful path. Whether that be creating a community, giving back, or supporting others through grief. For Linda, she likes to think of this as the gift of grief. The light that you find amidst the darkness. After experiencing the loss of her brother Michael, Linda turned the grief worksheets she was using as a psychologist and her own experiences into a book to help others through loss to suicide. After experiencing the loss of two siblings, Linda feels more of a pull to support others through grief no matter who they lost or the circumstances.

In episode 4, Sarah shares a beautiful sentiment about the memories we share with our siblings and how they stay with us throughout time. Sarah opens the episode sharing a favorite memory of how her and her late sibling, Jenni, would sit in the mall as teens, pointing out people that looked like their biological parents.
As the episode progresses, we discover it wasn’t always great times and joyful memories. Jenni struggled with being adopted and her place within the biological and adopted families. Her struggle with addiction led her to interventions, rehab, and ultimately untimely death to Fentanyl overdose. After Jenni’s death, Sarah was overtaken by complex emotions and behaviors. Unable to feel comfortable moving forward or developing relationships, she sought out EMDR therapy to address her grief. To hear more of Sarah and Jenni’s story, listen to Season 5 Episode 4 now on any podcast platform or Youtube.

Combining writing with her love of nature and grief journey she was able to write and publish a book of poems, ‘Morning Leaves: Reflections on Loss, Grief, and Connection”. Tune in to Season 5 Episode 3 now to hear more about Laing’s grief journey.

Join us for another incredible breakout session discussing what it’s like to los a sibling as a child as it’s a unique experience …
Thank you to @lovefromheavenorg for supporting our event and track!
Meet your presenters:
Terry of @thehealingchickadee is a Connecticut grandmother remembers what it means to be a child in grief. At age ten, the sudden death of her sixteen-year-old brother introduced her to an early experience of tragedy and loss. In her acknowledgment of the lingering effects of her and her family’s pain, she created “The Healing Chickadee.” While it has been decades since that tragedy—in fact, 2021 marks the fiftieth anniversary—her realization that grief has no timetable was the impetus for her to find a way to help children seek comfort when they have suffered a loss. Taking time with her own inner child, she began to think of things that would have been helpful to her and her family as they struggled to find solace and to heal the wound of loss. Drawing on this experience, she created The Healing Chickadee and her Tweet-Hearts. The birds convey messages of comfort for a child in mourning. The content is not a substitute for therapy. Rather, the bird characters, the activities, and the songs and stories are designed to enhance a child’s social-emotional skills and provide families with a catalyst for conversations about a topic that all too often seems off-limits.

Stacy faced over a year of no communication with her sister, Katie, before her death. In Episode 2, Stacy shares with us how she journeyed through guilt due to that lack of relationship before Katie’s passing. Many Surviving Siblings journey through guilt after a passing and struggle to overcome it. Hearing Stacy’s clear and honest message about guilt is an important one and a message that many will carry forward.
