The title says the majority of it. My boyfriend lost his little sister on February 1st this year in a tragic accident where she was struck by a truck. I was overseas when it happened. The phone calls from him as he was rushing a 2.5 hour drive to the hospital only to get to the parking lot and receive the notification that she had passed are engraved in my head.

We’re fortunate enough to live together now and tonight was one of those nights that was really hard on him. I sit here, holding him as he cried talking about how much he misses her. He finally calmed down a bit and is lying next to me sleeping. My heart hurts so much for him.

How do I help? What do I do? Is there anything I can do? I’ve never lost someone before, let alone a younger dividing that I grew up with.

Any help is appreciated. I’m going to try and rest myself but will read what I can when I wake up in a few hours for work.

TL;DR - my boyfriends sister got hit by a car and passed away. He’s rightfully still grieving months later and I want to help but I just don’t know how if at all.
