The one I don't want to write

I've linked to my sister Aline's blog for years and will continue to do so. She passed away on August 16th from complications due to CF in medical ICU. 

it been a very hard almost month... Can't believe that much time has passed. 

She was such a big part of my childhood and teenage years. As adults we both took very different approaches in every area of our lives... Which led to us being very distant and losing most of what we had. I grieve who she was and what we all lost. Keep my family and her husband in your thoughts please. 

I'll leave you with the lyrics to Josh Groban's "to where you are" which got played at her celebration of life ceremony. 

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memory's so clear

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are my
Forever love
Watching me from up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
