Remembering my sister


KarenPayne

1,257 views

Unfortunately at the time of my transition was when my sister developed a fatal cancer and could not bring myself to fly east to see her one last time. My impression was we have a decent brother sister relationship but after her passing my mother told me I was more to her than what I had imagined. I so regret not being stronger and just gone to see her. Please don't let something like this ever happen to you.

Since then I have been thinking of getting a tattoo of an owl which was something she was into but for a multitude of reasons never did get a tattoo of an owl.

Today I was walking in one of the more popular malls and spotted a Pandora store which I later learned was the only one in the greater Portland area. I asked if they had a owl charm and they did so I had them set me up with a bracelet and charm. So now as I see it I wear a token to remember my sister by on my wrist.

I miss you Suzy

Karen,

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your sister.

In my opinion, this is not the end.  She has become all-knowing and all-understanding in the Spiritual Realm.  You had a lot on your plate during your transition.  You are the sister she has never had.  You will be together again.

By the way, an owl symbolizes wisdom.

Your friend,

Monica

Karen, this is a very emotional blog entry to even read, it must have been so very sad to write it.......................but thank you for doing so. We are often so wrapped up in our own lives that we don't see what is happening to others who are dear to us.
