Stacy Frizzle Edgerton, executive director of People Plus and the Brunswick Teen Center, over the last few days, lost a sister–the second of three siblings to pass prematurely. She’s now left with a brother, who fortunately lives not far away in the Boston area.
We hear a lot and we talk a lot about losing our parents–sometimes much too soon–but because our parents are a generation ahead of us, we anticipate these losses. The loss of a sibling can be much harder–for one thing we get a slap-in-the-face reminder of our own mortality.
Stacy and I talked about this much unexplored subject on today’s WCME Midcoast Morning Buzz.
