Episode 24 - Sibling grief

In this episode of the podcast, I have a chat to Katie Anne from a charity called Jacinta’s Smile is passionate about helping those suffering the loss of a sibling for bereaved children and young adults.   Katie Anne knows too well the grief when a sibling dies.   In an extraordinary set of circumstances, she has experienced it 3 times with the death of her brother Declan when she was a child, and her sister Jacinta and her brother Fintan when she was an adult.   Sibling grief is a forever process and there are so many different parts of your life that it touches.  Siblings are people that you grow up with. They are a part of your life from the beginning.   You don’t remember life without them and there is an expectation they will always be there in the future When a sibling dies, those bonds are shattered and that shared history has a void that cannot be filled.
