[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m two years younger than my brother and we shared a room from when I was about 3 to when he left for college. We got along for better or worse but once we were a little older we definitely forged a really strong bond. I highly recommend it.

Looking back, obviously there was lots of petty stupid stuff that went between us as a natural consequence of sharing the same space.. I’m sure that was hard on my parents. It didn’t help that part of the reason we shared a room was because we didn’t have the means of a lot of other families where we grew up.

My brother died a month ago after a short and sudden bout with cancer. He was in his mid 30s. I feel like I’ve lost a piece of myself. But I’m more glad now that I had all that time to be so close to him. If you count the hours we were asleep, I spent more time with him than anyone else in either of our lives. That’s tough to beat.

I am so sorry for your loss, PP.  [/quote]
So sorry for your loss PP. I shared a room with my brother 2 years younger growing up. Though we have very different personalities and not close as adults, we have those fond memories to share and keep that bond when we do get together.[/quote]
