Callum Fairhurst, now 21, was only 12 when his brother Liam died at the age of 14 in 2009 following a four-year battle with synovial sarcoma, a rare soft tissue cancer. Now a decade later Callum, from Cambridgeshire, has launched website Sibling Support which helps the sometimes 'forgotten grievers' after a young person dies. Ten years later, Gemma said she still misses Ryan terribly and hopes that, although virtual, Sibling Support can give people similar guidance to what she received from the hospice support team. 'But Sibling Support shows that there are loads of siblings out there going through similar pain and its not as rare as 12-year-old me thought.' Now a decade on from losing his brother, Callum said it's getting easier to talk about him and he no longer shies away from conversations.
