my sister broke my heart

I'm brokenhearted. My sister left me in spite of my good treatment to her and her baby. But she chose to leave me. Leaving her baby behind... leaving me alone in the house. I don't understand why is she acting like that. What kind of sister is she? She did this many times. But i still want to forgive her. We lost our parents at a very young age that's why i want my sisters to be with me together. I need a family. I need them. But i have here an angel beside me. I feel alright when she smiles at me. I feel relief. So i think i am going to be ok with this little angel. I know someday her mother will be back, my sister. May the God guide her. Take care sister.

This is a very difficult situation to be at. Having to take care of someone who is not your child. I know that even though you are blood related, it is very hard to assume the responsibility. I hope you get through this and someday, I hope your sister will realize her fault and come back for her baby before it is too late.

It's difficult to be the oldest sister in a family where one or both parents are no longer present. My father left us a long time ago and it was difficult to be the oldest in the brood especially since they were all boys and in their teenage years. I think your sister is acting up because she is lost - its really different if you do not have your parents around. She'll come around. You might have to be the bigger man (or woman) and make the ultimate sacrifice at this time.

Hi Tess I am sorry to read this specially that your Sister even left the Baby, I do not understand how any Mother can leave her Children, specially when you both lost your Parents so young she must know what it is like not having a Mum It saddens me that your Sister has left you both, but if she does come back, she is going to confuse the little Angel I really hope that she will not do this Take good care of the little Angel Tess

Hi Tess, I dont know why does your sister leave you and her baby. But you are not alone, you still have a family, and that is the baby right beside you. I don't know hy does your sister just leave that baby, I am mother and I want my baby to be with me at all times. I really love her and she always makes me happy despite of the problems that we encounter. Please take care of her, because of her you will still have a family. She needs you more than her mother because her mother seems that she doesn't care at all. She needs someone who will take care of her and protect her. She is a wonderful blessing for you. Just let your sister do whatever she wants and wherever she goes, just take care of the child.

Oh, can't thank you enough all of you for motivating me. Honestly, i am so worried and depressed. I miss my sister and worry about financial strain. I work in the evening so nobody can take care of the baby at night. It means i have to look for a nanny. But i know i can do this. I can raise the child and i just hope my boyfriend would understand my situation. I am afraid to lose him too.

Yes surely she will come back atleast for the baby. May be she has been depressed for no reason. Just leave her sometime, when she is normal she will realise and come back.

I may not be in your situation but all i can say is take good care of your sister's child. Your sister needs help us well. Why would she leave her own baby behind? You have to talk to her and be frank with her if you're feeling this way.

Hi, Tess. :) This makes me teary eyed. For you and the baby...I couldn't imagine someone abandoning those who love her...May be there's a part of her that is missing and she wants to search for it... Sadly, she did not realize that the missing puzzle in her life is just right there staring her in the face directly... Yes, you will be alright. That little angel will help you get through it. You two need each other. There's a longing for a sister and a mother that both of you can fill... you are lucky to have that little angel beside you, still and she is so lucky to have an Aunt like you. Ah, your sister will be back for sure. She can't stand being far from her home, i'm sure of that. And her home is right with you and her baby...

Hello! I think your sister needs a space, a world of her own, a time to think about nothing but her self alone. Each and every one of us has his or her own tolerance regarding about many things that happened in our life. Your sister just think that her baby is in good hands with you, so just take good care of her baby and its true that every baby is a blessing, and your sister just left you with one. I do admire you for being a very good person to your sister, that means to show how big your heart was and that how good you were raised by your parents. I know that your sister will be back, just wait for her and continue to understand her. May your tribe increase! God bless you all... Good night!

I am sorry for what happened to you and your sister daughter. I think there shall be some reason behind that and some very strong reason because a mother can never be such cruel that she can leave her daughter behind her. Find out the reason behind her action and sit with her to solve this problem. Listen to her carefully, support her and make her mind if she is wrong, never blame on her This way you ll find the way to handle with this problem, letting every thing on God is not advisable, do some action to solve this problem...:)

Give your sister some time to think of what she should do in her life. Maybe she needed space that is why she left. Just be prepared when she came back and welcome her warmly.

Hi tess_quinain! I'm sorry to hear of your plight my friend. I'm sorry about your sister too. I think her problems might just be too much for her to handle and that's why she left. It's best to leave her alone for the time being. I'm sure she would be back and make it up with you once things are Ok with her. Just take good care of your niece.
