It is hard to get used to not being able to call someone. You should still text him. It helps to express yourself, even if he can not text back.

There is a very touching documentary about a phone booth in Japan where people go to talk with the dead.

I could see that being comforting.

It was in a village destroyed by the tsunami. People went back to talk on the phone about their lives and what had happened since.

Thank you. I couldn't remember where I had heard it.

I lost my brother in '06 and I still have his number in my phone. That feeling never goes away. There are times where I wish, more than anything, I could just shoot him a text to let him know I'm okay. It's hard to lose a brother. It's literally losing your longest friend.

I lost my little niece that was like my sister 18 years ago. And i still think about her everyday. I still got the letter that she wrote me. And whenever i feel depress i just read those letters and feel like she is just talking to@me at that moment.

My sister, 1985. Still feel the same ...

Lost my brother when I was 18 years old in 74 & I still have dreams that I'm still searching for ways to save his life. He was 20 years old & didn't know his wife was pregnant at the time of his death.

So sorry for your loss, Shaun.

For months after my husband died, I kept his cell phone in service. There were a countless number of times I would call "him", listen to his voice on Vmail and leave him a message. It may seem odd (I've never told anyone this) but it was very comforting & therapeutic for awhile.
