Your article reminded me of the recent death of an actress whose struggles became visible only after she was gone. I know her from Lilo & Stitch - Daveigh Chase. Throughout history, most people have survived difficult times because one person saved them. She apparently had no one.

To your point, too many people are walking around processing grief, illness, fear, loneliness, or exhaustion while appearing perfectly normal to everyone else.

Cheers to extraordinary people like you.

You are a good friend and an even better sibling
