If you ever want to talk about your sister you can dm me. The funeral home sent us some literature and it seems its two years to work through the first bit of this. Everything is two years. The first two years of recovery is brutal, being shunned by my mother took two years to work through. I'm so thankful I had over six years sobriety under me before I had to deal with my stepdaughter drinking herself to death. I don't know if I could have held up if I was drinking still myself.
