"Thanks Susan. It would be wonderful if I could identify any other sibling bereavement memoirs. There are still only a couple of dozen in English around the world. Of course, too, my goal is to give the memoirs the critical attention they deserve!"

Patricia Busbee said… - Thank you for your kind words. I was up most of the night wrestling with myself. I appreciate your advice--especially from someone that has "been there."
This morning I woke in a panic and I e-mailed my adviser to see if there might be other options. I am waiting to hear back.

You can never be prepared for anyone you love to die but you kind of expect it to be your grand parents; parents etc..never a sibling..If things go as planned the book should be coming out end of summer or early fall..good luck with your thesis..great subject! Did you know that grief was not even considered a mental condition until the 1980's..and the correlation between grief and actual physical sickness is just now being studied..I was amazed by these facts..
