As the brother or sister of a missing person, everything in your life has changed. You didn’t ask for it. You didn’t make it happen. You’ve lost your brother/sister. And chances are pretty good that you’ve pretty much lost your parents too. If your sibling is still missing, they are probably busy looking for them. Rules at your house have probably changed. Maybe you can’t do things you used to do. Sometimes they seem to have forgotten you are there at all. In many cases, your family is now closer than ever because of this trauma. Guess what? It isn’t just at your house.
It happens in every family with a missing person. Every family handles things a little differently. But everybody handles many things the same. This is probably THE biggest trauma your family will ever face. You don’t have to go through this on your own though. “Missing Sibs” is a program that provides support to the siblings of missing persons. Let us help you.
