    Wow, bummer. I can't imagine what's that's like. I never know what to say in situations like this. Pretty much anything I could say would fall far short of expressing my empathy for you. Just know you're in my thoughts & prayers, for what it's worth.

    Think of the good times, man. If seeing you play puts a smile on her face, do it. Memories are the only thing we can take with us, so make them the happiest you can. Best wishes to you and your sister!

    i can sympathise a bit....a few months ago my 18 month old neice died suddenly one night and we still havn't figrd out why (maybe murder, maybe medical), but anyway....although i didn't know my niece as long as you have known your sister i know how it feels to lose a loved one and you do too since you also lost your brother....If you find away to feel better let me know your trick....cuz when I think of my late niece all I can think of is yelling curse words as loud as I can.....

    thanks guys it helps to know that there are people who care. that's why playing music is so much a part of our lives inoder to play you have to feel it
    it becomes a part of you your soul or atleast thats how i feel.

    Wow Phillip, I'm so sorry.. I've lost grandparents and great grandparents, but to lose my sister would be even worse. I'm very very sorry. Like 1DB said, just think of the happy times. If she wants to see you play, then play for her. i bet she'll really love to see you play for her. again im very very sorry, and god bless

    Oh man that suxor. The feeling that someone you know is dieing is the worst feeling in the world and at times scary because....well nevermind. I remember my first wedding anniversary, my wife's grandpa died. Died on the day OF OUR FIRST ANNIVERSARY!!! So every year our anniversary comes up, we have go and give remembrance to her grandpa. Which I have no problems doing, its just the idea that every year I have to do this which I shouldn't because it brings me way down.

    Hey, Philip, it's never easy to let go of someone you love. And it sounds like you're still grieving your brother's loss, too, so you have a lot to deal with. It sounds sappy the way Barbra Streisand put it, but it IS the laughter that we remember when we think of our loved ones. I think of the good times I had with my departed family members and it eases the pain.

    I know you'll do your best to make your sister happy...BTW, Utopia, grieving is a mixture of cursing, crying, laughing, and weeping (and sometimes all at once)...and for me, banging the bongos and congas really helped me get the anger out of my system.

    And sometimes, man, you have to let it out. Whether you yell or cry or bang hell out of the drums (better that hitting other things or people), find something that'll work for you.

    Of course, you took a big step when you posted your note...hang in there, bro'...
    keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
