Some people say that "you don't know what you have until it's gone". But not me, I always knew, I always knew that my brother was the most beautiful and amazing thing that ever happened to me, I knew from the day that he was born, when I first held him in my arms that, from that point in time, nothing else would matter to me. I vowed from that very moment that I wanted to earn the title of being a big brother rather than simply inheriting it, wether that meant sitting down and playing with him, comforting him when he was sad or even just taking him out to the shop, the appeal to this for me was just to see him laugh and smile. Tommy may have only had a short life but the consistant array of cuddles and kisses and his persistent cheeky escapades lead me to believe, that as a family, we gave him a life that he both loved and enjoyed and a life that we will forever treasure. Like I said to begin with, people always say that you don't know what you have until it's gone, but the truth is, we knew exactly what we had, we just thought we would never lose it.
