Thanks for your input Alffe. I have tried the only support group in this area. I was disappointed because the members had lost children. I had much sympathy for each and every one of them but I didn't fit in because my loss was a brother & sister. I did not feel validated in my feelings of loss because I had not lost a child and that is only what the discussions were about. The group facilator was very nice & tried to be empathic but she, too, had lost her son and did not know how to react to my situation. She has been helpful though by sending me email whenever she reads anything about sibling survivors.
