[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have also had to accept that I will never have that kind of a family. My parents are divorced, my mother and I have a strained relationship, and my brother is dead. I am close with my dad and I work to foster that relationship and spend time with him, but our nuclear family is non-existent. As others have said, I have made my own family from friends. Sure, I have pangs when I see people with the "perfect" nuclear family, but I know how lucky I am to have a wonderful husband and great kids and they have a super grandpa and a wonderful grandmother (my MIL), and fantastic friends who love them. I'm not saying you have to dismiss your feelings, because they're valid, but try to focus on what you do have and be thankful for that. And perhaps over time your relationship with your sister will change.[/quote]
