There are two things that you can do. The first is keep praying. Believe that your prayers will come true, you don't sound very confident about prayer. Pray for your sister's brother, for your sister and her family, and pray for yourself too. The second thing that you can do is to put your energy into comforting, supporting, and reassuring your sister. She was much closer to her brother than you and she needs your support. If you focus on making her feel better it may take your mind off of your own feelings a little and it will probably help you feel better about it too. I hope that your sister's brother pulls through and I will pray for him too. Good luck! <3

There is no particular set of actions that you need to follow through.

The emotions will just come and you can decide what you want to do or how you feel then.

All I can say is, be honest with yourself. If there's a day you just want to cry, then let it all out. If there's a day you want to just have a normal day and do what you normally do, do that and don't feel guilty for not thinking about him.

I'm really sorry to hear about that, it's really sad that something like this had to happen to anyone so young.

Every year, for the past five years, I've lost someone close to me. Wether it be friend or a relative.

Last year it was my grandfather. He was diagnosed with stage four cancer, which meant there was no saving him, they doctors gave him an estimated time that he'd live. Which was sometime before Thanksgiving. All you can really do in a near death situation like that is spend time with the person and hope for the best.

Im not a person who prays either but it's funny how sometimes in situations like that some of us will start praying for some sign of hope. I prayed.

My grandfather made it to see Thanksgiving, he even made it to see Christmas, and New Years. He proved the doctors wrong, and he beat the odds of his life span. In Febuary though he had passed away, which was a relief and I know that sounds terrible but he was suffering so much. He was slowly dying and he was trying his best to live for all of us.

I guess the point in my story is that a person can really pull through and beat the odds that are against them, no matter how horrible. I'm sure that there might not always be a full recovery for some, and that your life may never be the same... but at least sometimes, they'll still be with us.

Be there for his sister more than anything. She probably really needs someone during this time.

Wow, talk about a freak accident. That's nuts. Sad, though, he is too young. Good thing is he is young, he'll recover a lot faster than a baby or older adult would.

Best thing is to come to face with everything and be honest with yourself.
