How many Siblings do you have ?

Two older brothers. I lost one two years ago, the middle one. My oldest brother (15 years my senior) were never really close. Probably due to the vast age difference. He moved out of the house for college when I was 2. But in more recent years we keep in contact more by email or phone, though not as much phone any more as he has some hearing loss now. We live in different states, so are not face to face often at all.
 
I'm still close with my 2 sisters. My oldest is out there trying to save the world and married to a dentist.
My younger sister is a fabric artist and married to a woodworker. Both creative and fun.

I had two brothers but lost one when I was a teenager. I wasn’t really close to my older brother but due to my parents aging we had our very first heart to heart talk and we are actually quite close now . :grin:
 
Had 5, 1 present. 2 passed in their 30's , two passed on in their 40's. So far, I've lived the longest and one of my brothers is still alive, he's the baby of the siblings.

I was very close to my sisters, they were my rocks, they live on in my memories and often in my dreams.
 
Two; older sister and brother. They both live quite a distance from us, but I remain very close to my sister. We own RVs and take trips together at least twice a year. Love my brother but we don't keep in close touch for some reason.
 
Lost my baby sister to MS and she was 68, a couple yrs ago.

Middle child, brother is on the East Coast and he was always the black sheep of the family...never around once he moved on with his life. He's 75 I think. I'm oldest at 80 and moved to CA over 50 yrs ago.

Same with me except that I have had only one brother. I wish I had a sister, too, but back when my dad was in the U.S. army he and another recruit when they were in Germany right after WW11, were assigned to do some cleaning which involved some kind of chemical which caused the two of them to develop Hepatitis B. My dad was in the hospital for months which even made the ceiling turn yellow. He survived, but his companion in this terrible experience died. So, after that no more babies. My dad is now 91, so I guess it's some kind of miracle.
 
One half-brother I never met (Father's first marriage), one older brother, one sister, and a step brother.
We are not a especially social family but my sister keeps us appraised of family news on a irregular basis.
 
There are 4 of us full blood siblings... one half brother ( fathers' previous marriage a lot older than me) and 2 steps.

One full blood sister and the 2 steps live 5 minutes drive from me.. I have nothing to do with the steps.. One brother lives in another country, and one brother and sister live way up north.. we're not close... none of us!!
 
My older sister,Mary lives in England,we've never been close,we email each other every couple of months. The last time I saw her was 6 yrs ago when our youngest nephew graduated from high school.I talked to her last summer when she came 'across the pond' to visit our brother&see friends
My younger brother,JOhn lives in Rye,NY{burb of NYC} We are very close,talk every Sun.Last Oct,JOhn&eldest nephew,Jay came home for 48hrs,they were here to attend Bflo Bills-Tampa Bay Bucaneers{Jay's fav team} football game.We went out to dinner Sat night.I usually go to John's for thanksgiving depending on the weather Sue
 
I have 2 older brothers - talked with both of them on the phone over this past week. Probably talk 3 or 4 times a year or more.
 
I was the eldest of 8 ..5 of them being 1/2 brothers / sisters

3 are deceased
one full,brother at 14 in 1964 ( I was 18 at the time )
1/2 sister at 50, 12 years ago (cancer)
1/2 brother 4 months ago 64 ( cancer)

Since I left home at 18 we have never been close due to a dysfunctional family involving way to much drinking and neglect
resulting in many of the 1/2 siblings growing up in foster homes after I left home at 18 as I was their baby sitter / cook / cleaner
as a result we hardly know one another
 
Four half sisters.....two from my dad and his second wife and two from my mom and her second husband.

They all live several states away and we don't keep in contact with each other.
